Our jury member Ariadna Arnés
Ariadna tells stories through her camera. Born in Barcelona in 1976, she has spent more than 24 years seeking the spark of truth that turns a simple photo into a story with soul.
Today he travels the world photographing weddings, with a special connection to Arab cultures. His respectful documentary approach captures each celebration’s intimate essence: a knowing glance, an unguarded gesture, a detail others might miss. Recognised by international media, his work has influenced the field through its technical quality and its ability to convey the human truth behind each image.
What makes her the perfect judge for our competition?
Because he understands photography from all angles:
- As an artist, she pursues the emotions hidden in each image.
- As a teacher, she has trained hundreds of photographers.
- As professional, her work has been published worldwide.
- As traveller, she photographs weddings with an approach that respects local cultures.
Her speciality is that magical moment when life stops: a look, a gesture, a detail others might overlook. That is precisely why she is the ideal judge: she recognises when a photograph has that “something” beyond technique.
In this competition, we seek images that move us. Ariadna’s documentary experience and sensitivity to people make her ideally placed to find photographs worth a thousand emotions.
