What a year 2019 turned out to be, with awards in three prestigious competitions!

First up, at the beginning of the year I came second overall in the Pet Portrait Photographer of the Year in The Societies of Photographers annual competition, an international competition attracting entries for photographers all over the world, with my image of Ocean the stunning black poodle.

In the summer I was delighted to clinch the titles Pet Portrait Photographer of the Year, Portrait Photographer of the Year, and Photographer of the Year for the Midland Region of the British Institute of Professional Photography with my image of Chow Chow Conker.

And in early November I was again delighted when I was judged winner of the Top Dog Creative category in the annual Xperience Portrait Awards with my image of Springer Spaniel Poppy.

And as well as 2019’s successes our dog photography has seen me awarded the accolade of Pet Portrait Photographer of the Year for the Midlands Region of The British Institute of Professional Photography in 2014, 2016, 2017 and 2018.
