Kraszna-Krausz Book Awards
Celebrating excellence in publications about photography and the moving image

The Kraszna-Krausz Book Awards are the UK’s leading prizes celebrating excellence in photography and moving image publishing. They recognise individuals who have made an outstanding original or lasting contribution to literature concerning photography or the moving image (including film, television and new media).
Two winning titles are selected annually, with prize money of £10,000 divided equally between the categories.
The 2025 Awards
General submissions to the 2025 Kraszna-Krausz Photography and Moving Image Book Awards are now closed. Keep an eye out for the longlist announcements this Spring.
**Deadline Extension**
If you have been impacted by the fires in Los Angeles, or have experienced similarly exceptional circumstances that prevented you submitting your book before the 31 January, please get in touch. The deadline extension runs until the end of February.
