© Connector 2016
Welcome!The Snapys Awards were created by Connector for the Irish Instagram community after the success of our first Instagallery event.
Our mission is to make the world a more beautiful place, one photo at a time. We want to take this beauty off Instagram and bring it offline with real-world events and experiences.
Our partnership with Huawei has been a stunning success as we honour the most talented Instagrammers in Ireland.
We empower creators to take a shot at greatness, to rise above the noise, share their passion and shoot their take on fashion, culture, food and more. You have the talent and with the Huawei Snapys, we help you get the recognition you deserve.
We are thrilled that several of last year’s winners are already building a career out of their Instagram profiles and working as professionals with brands. Tonight we want to welcome more winners to our hall of fame!
A special thanks to Justin Costello from Huawei, whose vision and support helped to bring this dream to reality. Thanks also to our other partners who sponsored categories and provided great prizes and support.
The Snapys are about to run in the UK, Canada and beyond so thanks to you all for helping make this possible.
We hope you have an amazing night and don’t forget to Snap, Tweet and Instagram the night away using the #huaweisnapys hashtag!
Best of luck to all shortlisted.

Joe is a Dublin based photographer who specialises in commercial, event and portrait photography.
When he is not out shooting on the streets of Dublin with other photographers you can usually find him climbing the nearest mountains looking for the amazing views this country has to offer.
