The City Series: Cambridge — Shutter Hub Editions Publication

The City Series is a new ongoing publication series from Shutter Hub Editions exploring the people, places, and cultures that shape cities worldwide. Each volume is built around a single city. The 2026 edition is the inaugural volume — Cambridge, the English university town where Shutter Hub is based.

The brief is observational rather than documentary: photographers approach the city openly through people, atmosphere, details, routines, abstractions, or unexpected moments that feel personal. The editorial framing is explicit — show what the city feels like rather than what it looks like.

The publication is a printed photobook available through shutterhub.org.uk and selected stockists. Published in collaboration with Velvet Magazine. AI-generated work is accepted in this volume.

Submission terms are accessible: pay-what-you-can entry with £10 minimum. Free submissions are available on request for photographers with limited income. Open worldwide, with up to 10 images per submission.

Submission is through the Shutter Hub website. The 2026 deadline was April 23; selections communicated within 12 weeks of deadline.
