türkiye mobile photo awards

Türkiye Mobile Photo Awards (TMPA) is an international competition dedicated to celebrating the art of mobile photography and encouraging creative expression through smartphone lenses. Entering its second year, and supported by the main sponsorship of Türk Telekom, TMPA invites photographers of all ages, nationalities, and backgrounds—whether emerging or established—who create compelling works using mobile devices.

In 2025, TMPA is honored to present a distinguished jury panel comprising some of the most celebrated voices in contemporary photography. These jurors, whose work has been featured in and commissioned by institutions such as National Geographic, VIIPhoto, TIME, The New York Times, and VOGUE, include Ed Kashi, Michael Christopher Brown, Laura El-Tantawy, Ahmet Sel, Mustafa Seven, Dina Litovsky, and Ismail Zaidy. Their collective expertise and global perspective bring an unparalleled level of prestige to this year’s competition.

TMPA is committed to fostering a platform where photographers and visual storytellers at all levels—professional, amateur, or hobbyist—can showcase their distinct artistic visions. This competition seeks to inspire innovation and excellence in mobile photography, providing a space where creative minds can push the boundaries of visual storytelling while connecting with a global audience. With $5000 in total prizes, TMPA calls on photography enthusiasts worldwide to participate and share their finest works, celebrating the limitless potential of mobile photography as a transformative art form.
