Firecracker are seeking nominations for females in the photography industry who have changed photographer's lives, or developed their careers for the better. 

The Firecracker Contributors Award will recognise one of Europe's hardworking female photography professionals, voted for by the people they commission, purchase, educate and support: the photographers.

Perhaps someone took a chance on you in the early stages of your career, or gave you a sage piece of advice you always remembered. Perhaps someone has supported your career for years. Now is the time to show your appreciation.

The rules are simple:

• You must be a photographer to vote (of any gender, nationality or address)
• The professional you vote for must be female and reside in Europe

The winner will be announced at the Firecracker and London College of Communication ‘Firecracker: Women and Wit in Photography' Symposium, part of the Moose on the Loose Festival on 05 May 2015.
