Super chuffed and very proud to have received this in the post today. The Photographers Bar from The Guild of Photographers!
“A member of the Photographer's Bar is a unique distinction awarded to those photographers who have successfully had images assessed by the Guild over the course of a year, and attained a score evidencing an exceptional level of professional skill and consistency.”
Of course - while I get the award it could not be done without a steady flow of awesome dogs & owners coming through the door - putting their trust in me to create cherished memories of their dogs - so a big thank you from me

The year got off to a fantastic start as The Gloucester Dog Photographer was chosen by Theo Paphitis (of Dragons Den fame) as one of his #SBS Winners (SBS - Small Business Sunday) Each week Theo asks his Twitter followers to tweet about their business and six are chosen as winners. Winning the #SBS has given us a massive boost and belief after two years of stop/start/stop.

So the Xperience Awards came & went without picking up a coveted title - but at least one of our images was a "Top 10" image - which is no mean feat as there were over 8000 entries. So we are really chuffed to show off this image of Hope - the super gorgeous Afghan Hound that made the top 10.

At a glamorous virtual event hosted by the Xperience Group in Cardiff on a cold December night I was excited and privileged to have won not one but two Consumer Awards, The Consumer Awards are chosen by a panel of ordinary members of the public. More than 8000 images were entered this year so am very happy to pick up two awards, one for our studio photography - especially pleased as it is our signature style - and one for our location photography.
