The New York Photo Festival, the first international photo festival dedicated to contemporary photography, is proud to announce its NYPH ’10 Portfolio Review. The reviews are a platform for all levels of aspiring and professional photographers to present their body of work for review and critique by leading experts in the fields of photography, art, media, and advertising and to receive guidance and mentorship for future artistic and commercial career development. The portfolio review will be run by photography book publisher powerHouse Books, which has organized six highly successful and acclaimed portfolio reviews since 2005.

The NYPH ’10 Portfolio Review will host over 40 experts from all facets of the photography world, including a broad range of photo editors, gallery directors, museum curators, photography critics, commercial photography agents, publishers, art book packagers, and graphic designers.

The NYPH’10 Portfolio Review will take place over the duration of the New York Photo Festival, from Thursday, May 13 to Saturday, May 15, 2010.

There will be two review sessions each day: a morning session from 10:30 am to 1:30 pm and an afternoon session from 2:00 pm to 5:00 pm. Each day there will be a fresh roster of 25 top professionals from the photography world with time available for reservation on a first-come, first-served basis. Attendees are entitled to five one-on-one sessions with the reviewers over the course of three days.
