After the PhotoNOLA Portfolio Reviews conclude, each reviewer is asked to select three outstanding projects. This year Elizabeth Stone, Walker Pickering and Lee Deigaard were chosen from among seventy photographers who attended the reviews.

Elizabeth Stone received the most votes, earning her the PhotoNOLA Review Prize, which includes a solo exhibition at the New Orleans Photo Alliance Gallery during the ninth annual PhotoNOLA, a cash award of $1000, and a marketing consultation with Mary Virginia Swanson. 2nd Place winner, Walker Pickering, and 3rd Place winner, Lee Deigaard, are recognized with image galleries on the PhotoNOLA website.
