Photography student Tom Nicholson has been selected from nearly 100 entrants, and over 500 images, as the winner of the Canon Student Photo Competition held during the September 2013 Vodafone London Fashion Weekend. The competition set students the challenge to photograph, edit, caption and file a five-image portfolio within 50 minutes of covering the September 2013 London Fashion Weekend catwalk and ‘trend’ shows.
The challenge was arranged by Canon UK, in conjunction with the British Fashion Council, and gave students from UK photography colleges and universities access to the photographers’ end-of-catwalk pits at designer and ‘trend shows’ during two days of the September 2013 London Fashion Weekend. The top prize was £500 to spend on Canon equipment, an F-Stop bag and a pass as an accredited photographer to shoot the next London Fashion Week, in February 2014.
