 * Keep The "International Photography Awards" seem to be a proper competition with a real jury and enough press to be notable itself (no Wikipedia article but would qualify) and the sponsoring foundation is real with "important" directors etc. So in my opinion he would qualify on the basis of these awards and there is also enough coverage of him in sources to make a case that way as well.
