<p dir="ltr">Acclaimed photographer Adam Ferguson from Australia won the Photographer of the Year title along with $25,000 (USD) cash prize and a range of Sony digital imaging kit.</p>
<p dir="ltr">His series titled <em>Migrantes</em> is a series of black and white portraits of migrants in Mexico, as they wait to cross the border into the United States.</p>
<p dir="ltr">"By giving his subjects the shutter release, Adam hands a certain power to the sitter to make that decision on how to be perceived. These photographs are beautiful, meaningful and kind," said Mike Trow, chairman of the Professional competition.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Winners were revealed in a celebratory announcement video featuring interviews and reactions from the winning photographers. </p>
