2024 Women Photograph Mentorship Class

Introducing our seventh class of mentees!

Women Photograph is thrilled to introduce our new class of mentees for 2024!

This year, we will pair six early career photographers with an industry leader over the course of six months. Each mentee will also receive $2,000 toward a long-term project and have an opportunity to work together as a cohort and learn from each other.

Mentors include award-winning photographers Tara Pixley, Laurel Chor, and Anastasia Taylor-Lind, Photography Director at National Audubon Society Sabine Meyer, The 19th Photo Editor Lydia Chebbine, and Washington Post Photo Editor Monique Woo.

We received more than 400 applications this year and the selection process was incredibly difficult, but we're proud to share this year’s class. Please explore their websites and social media accounts, and stay tuned for updates on their work and supported projects later this year!

Made possible with generous support from Leica USA and the Phillip and Edith Leonian Foundation.
