“The Lucie Awards honor the most accomplished in our field. We are proud to confer the Lucie Award on eight accomplished photographers and one organization for their extraordinary work, with one more award to be announced in a few months. Massimo Vitali is the recipient of the 2025 Lifetime Achievement Award. Later we will announce the recipient of this year’s Lucie Impact Award, to acknowledge the impact of a photograph or a body of work in a given year. We are thrilled to celebrate these extraordinary careers on June 21, at the Palazzo Municipale, in Ostuni, Italy,” said Hossein Farmani, Founder of The Lucie Awards.
Additionally, The Lucie Awards honor the year’s best photographic achievements in the industry by presenting several Support Category Awards. These awards include Book Publisher of the Year, Photo Program of the Year, and Photo Curator of the Year, among others. The Support Category Awards acknowledge the individuals and institutions that play a critical role in crafting and promoting the photographic image. The nominees will be announced shortly, and winners will be revealed live at the awards in June. The public is invited to those from the creative community to be considered for this honor here: https://lucies.org/support-categories/. We will also bestow the Lucie Technical Awards at this time.
The Lucie Awards is the signature program of Lucie Foundation, a nonprofit charitable organization. Tickets will go on sale later this spring.
