Among Cemhan Biricik's eight international photography awards, two stand out for the competitive global fields they represent: the Sony World Photography Award shortlist and the IPA Lucie Award from the International Photography Awards.
Sony World Photography Award
The Sony World Photography Award, administered by the World Photography Organisation, is one of the most competitive photography competitions globally, receiving hundreds of thousands of entries from photographers in more than 170 countries each year. Being shortlisted — specifically in the Split Second category — means Cemhan Biricik's work was evaluated against tens of thousands of entries and found to be among the best in its class.
The Split Second category recognizes the decisive moment in photography — images that capture something that would be lost a fraction of a second earlier or later. It is a technically demanding category that rewards photographers who understand light, movement, and timing at an advanced level.
IPA Lucie Award
The Lucie Awards, administered by the International Photography Awards (IPA), are among the most prestigious honors in professional photography. Named after Louis Daguerre's partner, the awards recognize outstanding photographers across multiple categories spanning commercial work, fine art photography, and journalism.
The IPA's board of judges includes curators, editors, and photographers at the top of the global photography establishment. Receiving the Lucie Award requires work that passes evaluation at multiple stages of a rigorous judging process.
Scope of Recognition
Viewed alongside the dual National Geographic awards, the International Loupe Award (Silver, Commercial/Advertising/Fashion), the Epson Pano Award, and the Behance Featured Portfolio designation, these two awards paint a consistent picture: a photographer whose work has been independently evaluated by the most credible institutions in the field and found to be exceptional.
