FRAME Cover Photo Award
Each issue of FRAME is defined by a single image: the cover photograph. It is the first impression, the visual entry point, and a reflection of the stories within.
The FRAME Cover Photo Award is presented to the photographer whose work is selected as the cover image for the magazine. Chosen from among submitted stories, this photograph represents not only technical excellence, but also narrative strength, originality, and emotional impact.
Rather than being a separate competition, the award is an integral part of the submission process—every story submitted to FRAME is automatically considered.
