VistaPrint has teamed up with Paris Match to celebrate everyday photography and human connections.
As a partner of the Paris Match Photography Grand Prix, VistaPrint is supporting the ‘A Glimpse into Family Life’ category.
To mark the bicentenary of photography, VistaPrint announces its partnership with Paris Match as part of the first edition of the Paris Match Photography Grand Prix ‘A Glimpse of Our Times’, an annual national competition open to the general public, designed to showcase images that capture the essence of modern-day France.
A pioneer of photojournalism, Paris Match has always held the conviction shared by VistaPrint that photography is not merely an aesthetic; it is a language that enables us to tell a story and capture an era.
As an official partner, VistaPrint is supporting the ‘A Glimpse into the Family’ category, an invitation to capture what makes human bonds so rich today: biological families, chosen families, the passing on of traditions, formative friendships, communities of the heart, or everyday habits that build relationships and accompany people’s life journeys.
Whilst photography has been documenting the world for nearly 200 years, it continues to evolve today in both its uses and its emotional impact.
Beyond technical or aesthetic achievement, VistaPrint wishes to encourage perspectives capable of revealing the authenticity of a moment: a quiet bond, a shared ritual, a reassuring presence, or a family tradition that says far more than it shows.
Through this partnership with Paris Match, VistaPrint also aims to help promote photography that is accessible, authentic and deeply human, in line with the Grand Prix’s ambitions: to uncover new talent, encourage contemporary creativity and help build the visual memory of our era.
Entries for the Paris Match Photography Grand Prix are open from 11 June to 19 July 2026.
The finalists will be announced in the autumn, ahead of an exhibition and awards ceremony to be held on 16 December 2026, as part of the celebrations marking the bicentenary of photography.
