Every photographer dreams of that one moment when their hard work, dedication, and passion for photography are recognized on an international stage. For us, that dream became a reality once again upon receiving the IPA—International Photography Awards 2023.

This time, we wanted to share a part of our journey and the joy we felt upon receiving this small yet significant achievement in the world of photography.

The International Photography Awards conducts a yearly photography contest open to photographers of various backgrounds, including professionals, amateurs and students worldwide. The IPA is renowned for acknowledging the foremost talents in the field, individuals who are actively contributing to the current landscape and direction of photography. With that in mind, we take pride in our involvement in this transformative movement.

Certificate of Accomplishment:

IPA Int'l Photography Awards | 2023 Honorable Mention

The story behind the winning photo:

Selecting the mooncake packaging photograph to submit to the IPA was a deeply personal choice. We wanted to convey the cultural significance and artistry behind mooncakes which are traditionally enjoyed during the Mid-Autumn Festival in many Asian countries including our beloved country — Malaysia. The packaging not only protects the delicate mooncakes but also serves as a canvas for creativity.

The mooncake packaging we photographed was by Teatime by Thien, adorned with intricate patterns, delicate embossing and deep colours. Each design told a story of tradition, history and craftsmanship, making it a worthy subject for our lens.

Our journey to receiving an IPA International Photography Award has taught us that every subject, no matter how ordinary or unusual, has the potential to inspire and captivate. So, fellow photographers, let this story be a reminder that your unique vision and the beauty you see every day can lead to extraordinary recognition and success in the world of photography. Embrace simplicity, celebrate culture and keep capturing the world one frame at a time. This small but significant achievement has given us the confidence to pursue our passion for photography even further.
