Quite a night, tonight…

I was asked to be one of the judges last year, so obviously didn’t enter, and I’d done fairly well in it the year before, so I was keen to come back in to this year’s Event Photographer of the Year awards with something aimed at most of the eight categories.

It was a surprise and a delight to be shortlisted a couple of weeks ago in four categories: Corporate Events, Private Events, Experiential & Trade Shows, and Weddings.

That would have been enough, in all seriousness – the quality this year was really high across all the categories.

So I was pretty gobsmacked to get Runner Up in two of them:

Corporate events, with “Mozfest”

and Weddings, with “Oyster Moment”

…and then to be Winner in Private Events, with “Leadenhall Dancing”.

So, so pleased. Glad I have the support of a fantastic team, and thank you Tracy for coming to support and get a picture of me looking a bit chuffed, with that picture.

The ones that got away – the shortlisted “Dick & Dom”…

and in case anyone’s curious, a few of the others that didn’t make it to the finals.

Thank you. Now, back to work.
