Professional Photographer earns accolades

PPA member magazine Professional Photographer is among the country’s best in terms of both editorial content and graphic presentation. That’s not bragging; it’s the conclusion of professional editors and designers working in the magazine industry.

 “You would expect exceptional artwork from a magazine named Professional Photographer, but the publication goes beyond captivating photos to tell a story through a combination of words, design, and layout,” so noted a judge in the 2015 Tabbie Awards program administered by the Trade Association Business Publications International. In 2015, Professional Photographer received Tabbie Awards in the categories of Best Single Issue, Front Cover Photograph, and Feature Article.

In addition, the magazine received six Eddie (editorial) and Ozzie (design) awards in 2015 in the Folio program recognizing publishing excellence:

  • Ozzie Award, Best Redesign
  • Ozzie Award, Best Table of Contents
  • Ozzie Honorable Mention, Best Feature Design
  • Ozzie Honorable Mention, Best Overall Issue Design
  • Eddie Honorable Mention, Best Single Article
  • Eddie Honorable Mention, Best Series

 “The diverse audience of photographers is well-served by this diverse publication,” noted a Tabbie Awards judge.
