The European Photography Awards introduces the birth of 4 limited edition medals, with an individual sizing of 14.1 (W)x 7.1(H) cm, specially crafted and only designated for 2025 EPA Winners. Each medal is a representation of the newest category addition: Germany, Italy, France, and Switzerland respectively. The medals are inscribed with eminent landmarks, symbolising their glorious history. You are able to find our logo engraved behind every medal, intertwining the stunning cultures of different nations, amalgamating alluring sceneries with solid matters of metal.
Unite the Lands of Europe, Piece by Piece.
All medals come attached with a lanyard that carries their country flags, which are detachable for something far grander. Tracing back to the roots of diversification, that emphasis is implemented on our medals, as they merge together to form a magnificent display piece. The 4 medals are attached together to encircle a piece in the centre that reads EPA (European Photography Awards), the core of in which holds them together. This 2025 European Photography Awards Limited Edition Collection signifies the concept of unity, and the wide acceptance of the awards program in granting photographers the exposure they require, whilst gathering photographers across the world, and combining all into something majestic.

“ I am very happy to be part of this beautiful group of talented photographer and I hope to meet them and the organizator in an event future. ”
~ Nicoletta Cerasomma, Fine Art Photographer, Italy
“ When I decided to participate my first thought was "I'll be able to create something more artistic and prove to myself that I'm capable". And winning the prize at the end will make me look at the statue and remember the project I created myself and how I managed to reach the final and still win and never give up on anything. ”
~ Carina Silva, Freelancer, Ireland
“ It is gratifying, while at the same time, being motivational, to not be construed as a "mark of significance" or "arrival" but an indicator that Landscapes can and do capture and engage many viewers. Recognition by your peers and critics can be a danger to be kept at arms distance - kept as neither too wonderful nor too disappointing. ”
~ Ron Hallam, Photographer, Canada
“ This is truly incredible!!! My heart skipped a beat when I received the incredible news. It always means something so special when your work gets recognition in such a beautiful way. My awards get both a special place in my heart as in the photo studio, where they all are on display. It gives a sense of satisfaction that all the work you put with your heart and soul into your photography means something to the world as well. ”
~ Raïs De Weirdt, Portrait & Wedding Photographer, Belgium
“ It is always nice to receive recognition for your work. Especially in such a big photo contest like IAA Photography Awards. ”
~ Alex Pansier, Internet Entrepreneur, Netherlands

~ Karen Bailey, Photographer, United States
