It is a non-profit organization.

The Seminar offers:

* Distinguished speakers from the field of photojournalism
* Vendor display and sale of the latest photo gear
* Nikon and Canon camera clean and check
* Yearly photo contest with more than $5,000 in prizes
* Portfolio critiques by editors who make the hiring decisions

Speakers throughout the years have included Pulitzer Prize winners, Photographer of the Year winners, major magazine and wire service photographers, influential directors of photography, important educators in photojournalism academia, and others important in this profession.

Founded as a regional event, the Atlanta Photojournalism Seminar has grown to become one of the most prestigious photojournalism competitions, with participants from throughout the world.
