GLOBAL News Photographer
of the Year
Dan Kitwood
“Dan had strong entries across multiple categories this year, speaking to his versatility as a member of the news team. He brought his sharp eye and strong compositional sense to subjects ranging from serious to light-hearted: refugee crises, the Southport stabbings, politics, protests, British beach huts and a hobby-horse competition. Some of this variety is inherent in the work of a wire photographer, but it’s also a testament to Dan’s curiosity and enterprise as a journalist. We’ve often said that Getty Images gives the customers what they want, and what they didn’t know they wanted until we gave it to them. Within his daily news work and his features, Dan finds moments and stories that promise to surprise our customers and help distinguish our work from the competition’s.”
