Sony, in partnership with the World Photography Organisation, has revealed the winners of the 2025 Sony World Photography Awards. Selected from a pool of nearly half-a-million submissions across 56 countries, this year’s winners represent the best in global photography, ranging categories of portraiture, sport, nature, landscape, wildlife, street photography, still-life and more.
London-based Zed Nelson claimed the coveted Photographer of the Year title for his four-continent series The Anthropocene Illusion, which examines humanity’s increasingly estranged relationship to nature, confronting artifice in our perceptions of wilderness. While in the Open category, French photographer Olivier Unia took the cake with Tbourida La Chute, which captures the intensity of a traditional Moroccan equestrian performance.
Founded in 2007, the program began as a way to celebrate photographers of all statures – from the youth level to seasoned professionals. Winning entries are now on view at Somerset House in London until May 5. The official awards book, featuring all the honored works, is also available for purchase.
