Support Categories Awards
Support Category Awards are presented to individuals, companies and organizations that are an integral part of crafting an image. These awards are not for photographers but for those who support the photography community.
The public is invited to nominate those from the photography creative community to be considered for this honor. It is from these nominations that the individuals, companies or organizations will be awarded at the Biennial Lucie Awards. A photographer board will be voting on all the nominations to choose the Final Support Category honoree in each of the given disciplines.
The Lucie Tech Awards
The Lucie Technical Awards honor companies and individuals who have made significant advancements in the photographic industry, recognizing contributions in categories such as cameras, lenses, lighting, accessories, software, and storage.
2025 Impact Awards
The Impact Award is given to a photographer whose image or body of work has created a difference in a given year.
International Photography Awards
The International Photography Awards™ (IPA) organizes a yearly global competition for professional, amateur, and student photographers. Since 2003, its mission has been to celebrate the achievements of the world’s finest photographers, uncover emerging talent, and promote a deeper appreciation for photography by bringing it to the masses.
