Photography Award – 2021

The Photographer’s Bar – Maternity, Newborn and Babies

You may remember that this time last year I shared all about The Guild of Photographer Awards evening and obviously it was held virtually due to Covid! Fast forward to this weekend just past and the event went ahead, all be it with smaller numbers!

The Awards dinner is held at the end of 2 days of lectures and workshops where like minded individuals can get together and share ideas and knowledge. This year I had the pleasure of attending the event for the first time and enjoyed a wonderful time staying in the fabulous Crewe Hall with Lucy from Joy Photography in York. It was a delight to spend 3 days chatting about what we love the most and bouncing ideas of each other! I came away fuelled and ready to push my photography to the next level.

During the awards dinner Photography winners for image of the year and photographer of the year are announced in various genres of photography, including Pet Photography, Portrait Photography and Newborn Photography, along with overall Photographer of the Year.

The Photography awards process also acknowledges Photographers that have displayed an exceptional level of professional skill and consistency throughout the year! To be awarded this distinction photographers must have successfully had images assessed by the Guild over the course of the year within a specfic genre!

I am truly delighted and honoured to have been awarded The Photographers Bar within the catagory of Maternity, Newborn and Babies for the 2nd year on the trot! A huge thank you to the Guild of Photographer’s team and Members for being such a fabulous supportive bunch of fellow photographers.

A few people have asked to see the images that contributed to me receiving the honour of this Photography Award so I have added these below! I’d like to say thank you to my wonderful clients that continue to support my little business and grant permission for me to submit images of their children to the Guild for competition and assessment! Without your support I would not be where I am today, so from the bottom of my heart I thank you.

Photography Award – What’s next?

Last year I said that I will continue to chase the elusive Silver award in the monthly competition, well sadly that challenge remains for 2022! The first round of images for the 2022 Image of the month competion have already been submitted for assessment and so the wait begins for results day! This year I have also set myself the challenge of obtaining the bar in at least one other category so have also entered images within the Portrait and Pet categories to test the water.

A final thank you to each and every one of the beauitful models above and I look forward to seeing you all soon!

Photographer Appreciation Month

Photographer Appreciation Month

October is Photographer Apprecition month! It reminds us to show a little extra appreciation to those who go the extra mile to capture the important moments in our lives and make them last forever. As a photographer myself it seems a little odd to be acknowledging the custom directly but for me Photographer appreciation month is about acknowledging the amazing people around me that help me to be the best photographer I can.

First up I want to acknowledge my fabulous 2nd shooter! Lisa from Nix Pix Photography. Lisa recently worked with me at a wedding and did a fabulous job at capturing candid moments for me as well as assisting with ensure the finer details were just right for capturing the more posed portraits.

Working solo in a studio can be a lonely affair. Once a shoot is over and I am hiding away in my little office, editing or carrying out the other zillion admin jobs I have to undertake it can be very secluded. And so for this I give thanks to the local photography community. My Personal Photographer Appreciation nomination goes to Kerry. Kerry Unwin Photography is seemling my nearest competitor however actually we chat daily and discuss ideas and use each other as a sounding board. Despite it seeming we are in direct competion with one another this is not the case. We lift each other, offer support and encouragement to each other and send referrals across when appropiate.

I wouldn’t be able to be the phototgrapher I am without the amazing network of suppliers and other small businesses that I access. In particular I wish to acknowledge my fabulous baker, Hannah from Iced Rose by Hannah! Hannah is responsible for all the cakes supplied for my cake smashes. She never fails to get them spot on. She will acommodate all of the crazy requests I make and is able to work around everyone’s food allergies too.

Next up are my own children. These two are my reason why! The reason I work so hard. I want to lead by example and prove you can achieve anything you set your mind too. I followed my dream and I hope they will do the same.

Finally I need to acknowledge YOU, my amazing clients! Without you supporting me and visiting time and time again I would not be doing the best job in the world! Trusting me with your precious bundles and family memories is a true honour and one I hope I get to continue for many more years.
