Paris Photo–Aperture PhotoBook Awards

Paris Photo and the Aperture Foundation are pleased to announce the winners of the 2025 Paris Photo–Aperture PhotoBook Awards.

Since 2012, the Paris Photo–Aperture PhotoBook Awards have celebrated and honored the essential role of the photobook in the dissemination and evolution of photography. Over the years, the award has become a leading reference in the publishing world, recognizing excellence in three categories: First PhotoBook, PhotoBook of the Year, and Photography Catalogue of the Year.

During Paris Photo, from November 13 to 16, come and explore the selected books on the first floor of the Grand Palais in a dedicated space.
