Photographic Awards by Binh Trinh
Wedding, Portrait and Fine Art Nudes Photography Awards
Welcome to my Awards Page, my little proud collection of my achievements from around the world. As a self taught photographer/artist, my vision has always been to grow, not just to be the best as I can be as I just dont know what that is, but to be better than yesterday. The awards not only help with recognition on the international stage, but more importantly, they help me to expand my vision and understanding of what art is all about. I just hope that I can continue to add to this list every year with new and bigger competitions, and just simply be better than what i was yesterday. I am proud to share with you the following major awards that I have gained around the world.
