Gary Awarded BIPP Associateship

Following on from my success at the MPA in August, I learned today that the Britsh Institute of Professional Photography (BIPP) has also awarded me an Associateship in wedding photography.   The ‘normal’ professional qualification is a Licentiateship which denotes that photographers have an established level of skill and competence.  The Associateship qualification is aimed at the top 10% of photographers whose work shows style, individuality and a high standard of craftmanship and creative ability.

so rarely seen in today’s work”.   The second image below – shot at Cain Manor, Surrey – also received a Merit award in the Contemporary Wedding category.
