Membership Benefits Terms & Conditions

  • Discounts on magazine subscriptions, photographic printing, photography websites, photographic training courses

We reserve the right to change the benefits that apply to Membership at any time and without prior notice.

Any external providers of a benefit included within your Membership package will have absolute discretion in relation to the provision of services, and Membership of Pink Lady® Food Photographer of the Year does not guarantee that the external provider will accept an application from a Member for the provision of services.

We reserve the right to change our external providers without prior notice and our decision on services provided is final.
