Ilfopro Photographer’s Association

lford Imaging holds an annual photo contest for its Ilfopro Association members. Ilfopro is a national association of professional and amateur photographers sponsored by Ilford. Open to all photographers, membership is free and includes newsletters several times a year. The winners were chosen from nearly 1000 entries from the U.S. and Canada. The Ilford Marketing Group of North America judged the photographs, choosing a total of four winners—two winners in color and two in black and white. Each winner was awarded a check for $1000 for their exceptional photographs.

In the Color category the winners were Jim Flory of Mt. Angel, Oregon and Kenneth Lehman of Hagerstown, Maryland. In the black-and-white category, Tom Fougerousse of New Albany, Indiana and Phillip Geller of St. Joseph, Missouri were chosen. All the images were singled out from other entries in the contest because of technical excellence, creative approach and aesthetic appeal. Winning photographs will be published in the upcoming Summer issue of the Ilfopro Newsletter.


Because of the high quality of work submitted by Ilforpro members, the judges added an Honorable Mention Category. The winners in this category were Daniel J. Dinges of Woodburn, Oregon, Clifton Faust of New Orleans, Louisiana, Jim Flory of Mt. Angel, Oregon, Phillip Geller of St. Joseph, Missouri, Peter Michelena of Camden, Maine, Robert Needham of Hollywood, Florida, and Steven J. Volpe of Buffalo, New York.
