Photo London

Hailed as “the UK Photography event of the year” by the Guardian, Photo London was created by Candlestar in 2015 to give London an international photography event befitting the city’s status as a global cultural capital. Since then, Photo London has established itself as a world-class photography fair and as a catalyst for London’s dynamic photography community.

Prix Pictet

Founded in 2008 by the Pictet Group and produced by Candlestar, the Prix Pictet has become the world’s leading award for photography and sustainability. The award and touring exhibition aim to harness the power of photography to draw global attention to issues of sustainability, especially those concerning the environment.
