It’s Hard to believe it’s been some 4 months since we broke the news of Nigel Barker’s Top Photographer show, and a lot’s happened since then. In that time they’ve sorted through the litany of submissions, picked the finalists, and subjected them to the rigors they signed up for. Now, the show begins.
Airing/premiering tonight on AdoramaTV at 7PM EDT, we’ll witness the first in a series of 4 episodes pitting Andrew Kearns, Jamiya Wilson, Chris Palermo, Scott Borrero and Roxy Rodriguez against each other, and themselves, as they each gun for the title. Inevitably dreams will be dashed, hearts broken, as 4 will fall short of their goal, but that’s how it goes when there’s little room at the top. Here’s what you can expect over the course of the season:
- Episode One, airing Tuesday, November 1st, to feature episode guest judge David Bergman, with Nigel Barker to Skype in
- Episode Two, airing Tuesday, November 8th, to feature episode guest judge Emily Soto, a New York City-based fashion photographer, plus the episode’ s eliminated contestant
- Episode Three, airing Tuesday, November 15th, to feature episode guest judges Jeremy and Tom Jauncey of Beautiful Destinations, plus the episode’ s eliminated contestant
- Episode Four, Part One of the Finale, airing November 22nd, to feature the DP, director and producer of Top Photographer

Each and every contestant brought something special to the show, and it was truly awesome having the opportunity to work with them and watch them rise to the ‘Top Photographer’ challenge,” says Barker. “I’m thrilled to be sharing ‘Top Photographer’ and the work of these talented folks with the world. It’s just the beginning of a very exciting endeavor.”
