Portrait Awards 2
From Agora, the heart of global photographic talents, we are proud to launch PORTRAIT 2 INTERNATIONAL PHOTOGRAPHY AWARDS. This award celebrates the profound power of portrait photography to connect us globally, revealing the essence of human emotion and experience through compelling visual narratives. Each entry not only presents a face but tells the profound story behind it, serving as a bridge across cultural and emotional divides.
Participants are encouraged to provide narratives with their photographs, deepening the context and enhancing the viewer’s understanding of the diverse identities captured through their lenses. This adds depth to each portrayal, fostering greater appreciation and insight.
Photographers from every corner of the globe are invited to submit their work. In keeping with our commitment to authenticity, please note that entries utilizing artificial intelligence are not permitted. There are other awards within our organization where AI-created works are acceptable, but the PORTRAIT 2 AWARDS require purely human artistic input to maintain the integrity of the portrait tradition.
The PORTRAIT 2 AWARDS aim to significantly boost the visibility and recognition of talented portrait photographers worldwide. Finalists will receive substantial exposure and become a part of our prestigious TOP CREATORS feed. Additionally, finalists will be awarded a number of credits based on their final ranking and will receive the distinctive icon of an official verified user.
An important note for our competitors: if you are a PREMIUM member before being declared a finalist, you will receive double the credits. Moreover, winners will be awarded the Soonpho P10 RGB LED Video Light—a versatile and valuable tool for any portrait photographer. This prize will be delivered via an Amazon gift voucher, ensuring it can be conveniently claimed and shipped directly to your home. Should you have any questions regarding this process, please contact us at support@agoraawards.com.
We strongly recommend taking advantage of the numerous benefits of becoming a PREMIUM member. As a PREMIUM, you can participate without limitation in all awards, earn double credits in rewards, and have the opportunity to win substantial prizes as the most voted or jury-selected participant in any award.
Join us in celebrating the art of portrait photography at the PORTRAIT 2 INTERNATIONAL PHOTOGRAPHY AWARDS. Let your portraits open doors to understanding and appreciating the rich, diverse tapestry of human life around us. Your vision and talent have the potential to change perceptions and foster a deeper connection across the globe.
