I like to think I evolved over the years, but I am still excited by music and photographing musicians now and then. To receive recognition from a body that contains the name of Abbey Road and with some of my peers as judges, I can only be grateful! Thank you!\u201d<\/p>\n Abbey Road\u2019s Director of Marketing & Creative, Mark Robertson, added, \u201cAnton Corbijn\u2019s work has been part of the cultural fabric of modern music for over five decades. His photography doesn\u2019t just document \u2014 it defines, it innovates, and it inspires artists, fans and photographers alike. At Abbey Road, we\u2019re thrilled to celebrate a true icon whose artistry continues to influence.\u201d<\/p>\n Previous winners of the Icon Award, selected by the Music Photography Awards\u2019 judging panel, include Jill Furmanovsky in 2024, Henry Diltz in 2023, and Eric Johnson in 2022. This year\u2019s judging panel include Rankin, Nile Rodgers, Eric Burton, Joe Keery, Scarlet Page, Dimitri From Paris, Julia Cumming, and Simon Wheatley.<\/p>\n Abbey Road Music Photography Awards will be held at Abbey Road Studios in London on Oct. 2.
