Every year, the iPhone Photography Awards (IPPA) selects the best photographs captured with an iPhone, and the 2024 award winners were announced today. Many of this year's winning images were taken with Apple's most recent iPhone 15 models.
The grand prize image features a boy at an aquarium, with the photo shot in black and white using an iPhone 15 Pro Max.
The first place image includes a group of swimmers at a lifeguard camp from an iPhone 11 Pro Pro Max, while the second place image features children in Cambodia shot on an iPhone 15 Pro.
There are also winners across a number of categories, including abstract, animals, architecture, children, cityscape, landscape, lifestyle, nature, people, portrait, series, still life, travel, and other. All of the winning images can be viewed on the IPPA website.
IPPA has been running the iPhone Photography Awards since 2007, and 2024 marks the 17th annual competition. The contests are open to iPhone and iPad users worldwide, and images can be edited with iOS apps. It is worth noting that it costs money to send in a photo, but Apple devices are provided as prizes.

What this shows is great photography comes from the photographer and his/her life experiences, imagination, ability to see, ability to assess the quality of light, ability to compose, recognizing potential narratives that a viewer might conjure, skill, and determination. And very little to do with what camera one chooses to use. Too many people focus on the latter, rather than the former.
As someone who photographs mostly in BW, that BW winner is just horrendous. Firstly, there is nothing interesting about the composition - this is an easy enough shot to get at any Aquarium. Second, the processing and everything about it is horrendous. Yes, this is about taste, and some things like HDR are to each his own taste, but I just can't see anybody thinking this is a good image?
Biggest design overhaul since iOS 7 with Liquid Glass, plus new Apple Intelligence features and improvements to Messages, Phone, Safari, Shortcuts, and more. Developer beta available now ahead of public beta in July.
