Hello! Young Photographers Award (in assn with Nikon & Getty)

A photo competition for 18-30yr olds organised by Hello! magazine in conjuction with Nikon & Getty Images, which specifically excludes professionals yet offers a Hello! commission (+£5,000) as first prize, and 2 days internship with a Getty photographer as part of the 2nd prize.  Categories include AT HOME/INTERIORS, REPORTAGE, WEDDINGS & CELEBRATIONS, BABIES & PARENTHOOD, FASHION.

Terms  aren't very amateurish and look like a perfect intro to the professional world of small-print indemnity flankers and use without payment. Clearly the winners do OK, but thrusting this lot upon all entrants is not. The more interesting bits in bold:

Entrants represent and warrant that they are not professional photographers and that their entry does not infringe the privacy rights, copyright or any other rights of any person. Each entrant warrants that the entry is an original work of the photographer and that it has not been previously published. Obscene or inappropriate photographs will not be accepted and HML reserves the right to reject any photographs for any reason. Prior to submitting a photograph of any identifiable individual, entrants should advise any subjects within the entry of the purpose of the submission and that their photograph may be published by HML (including in HELLO! magazine or on HMC) or exhibited at GIG, and entrants should obtain the consent of such subjects in writing. In the event that the subject is a minor, written consent of a parent or guardian must be secured. Each entrant agrees to indemnify HML for any loss, damages, costs, expenses and any liability howsoever arising out of any breach of any warranty under this clause.

Entrants will retain copyright in their submitted entries; however, by entering, all entrants give HML, GIG and NUK a worldwide royalty free perpetual licence to edit, publish and use all or segments of each entry in any and all media (including print and online) for publicity and news purposes relating to this competition and to the publicity and promotion of this competition in future years. In particular, all entrants license HML the right to publish their entry on HMC and in print. Where an image is used, the photographer will be credited. Publication of any entry does not necessarily mean that the entrant has won a prize and no consideration shall be due or payable, or compensation awarded, in the event of publication without any prize being awarded.
