Our Mission: To salute the achievements of the world's finest photographers, to discover new and emerging talent, and to promote the appreciation of photography.
Lucie Awards
The international photography community will pay tribute to the year's most outstanding photography achievements presented at the Gala Awards ceremony. Honors will also be given for Lifetime Achievement, distinguishing some of the world's greatest men and women whose life's work in fashion, photojournalism, advertising and fine art merit the highest acclaim by their peers. The winners of the International Photographer of the Year™ and the New Discovery of the Year awards will also each receive a Lucie.
Photographer of the year Competition
IPA invites passionate photographers, professionals and non-professionals alike, to compete for the title of International Photographer of the Year™. The competition is judged by a board of esteemed photo editors, curators, gallery owners, art directors and other luminaries from the international photography community. The award includes a Lucie and a $10,000 grand prize. In an effort to cultivate and showcase emerging talent, all non-professional entries are also eligible for the New Discovery of the Year Award, lauding best up-and-coming artist, which includes a Lucie and a $2,000 cash prize.
In addition to these top prizes, all entrants will compete for Certificates of Achievement in eight major categories: Editorial, Advertising, Nature, Architecture, Portraiture, Specialty Media, Fine Art and Photography Book (professional category only).
