LWFP (Leica Women Foto Project) award recipients announced



LWFP award recipients announced – from over 600 submissions across the US, photographers Debi Cornwall, Yana Paskova and Eva Woolridge were selected by a prestigious panel of judges in the photography, art and entertainment industries to each receive $10,000 and a Leica Q2 to pursue a personal project that tells a story through the female viewpoint.
