Photographers featured this year include: Jaime Campbell, Robyn Cumming, Adrian Fish, Jeff Harris, Adam Harrison, Eamon Mac Mahon, and Rob Mcinnis from Canada; Olivia Arthur, Charlie Crane, Sophie Gerrad, Guy Martin, Edgar Martins, Helga Steppan, and Andrea Testoni from the UK; Andrea Chu, Heather Culp, Matt Eich, Christopher LaMarca, William Lamson, Beatrix Reinhardt, and Shen Wei from the US.
