Counter Foto celebrates its anniversary each and every year in the month of November. It constitutes a unique program by rewarding the Life Time Achievement Award to an accomplished photographer of Bangladesh. In 2013 the award was given to Syeda Khanam, in 2014 Abdul Hamid Raihan, and in 2015 to Pavel Rahman. In 2015 Honorary Life Time Membership had been given to Anwar Hossain and the Life Time Membership of Counter Foto is a practice where both the recipients and the contributor i.e. Counter Foto enjoy the equal stake breaking the norms of ‘directorship’, which is a prevailing practice in the corporate world.
