In this week's episode we discuss competitions and grants how they can help and further a photographer's career. 

Joining our host Lucy Hedges to discuss the topic are with award-winners Catalina Martin-Chico and Lorenz Holder. Catalina won the Canon Female Photojournalist Grant for her project on the baby boom among members of the FARC guerrilla group in Colombia. Lorenz is a nine-time Red Bull Illume award-winner for his unique "fine art sports photography".

In this episode they tell us how they won their awards, the times they've failed to win and the backstory behind some of their incredible images.
