Honors and Awards

The ASSOCIATE AWARD (APFLI) may be awarded in recognition of an individual’s contribution to the PFLI, generally over an extended period of time.

The FELLOWSHIP AWARD (FPFLI) may be awarded to recipients of the Associate Award who have demonstrated continued contributions to the PFLI. A two year minimum period is required between the Associate Award and the Fellowship Award.

An HONORARY FELLOWSHIP may be awarded to non-PFLI members for contributions to the PFLI organization or for the advancement of photography in general.

The SERVICE RECOGNITION AWARD may be awarded to a member of a PFLI Club who has performed extraordinary service for photography through their local club or community but not specifically to the PFLI.


A Plaque signed by both the President and Honors Chairperson of the Federation will be given! Presentations are to be made annually!
