His wedding images form a collection which moved me as a photographer who appreciates every moment he captures with his camera. He has a great understanding of people and few photographers can capture a wedding the way Stuart does, he has sheer RAW talent and understanding.”  Click here to view the winning wedding album (892Kb) Fine Art -Winner James Bignell / Best Portrait Album - Winner James BignellClick here to view client profile James Bignell from Uckfield won first place in the categories of Fine Art and Best Portrait Album as well as a highly commended in the category of Grown-ups.

It had a quality which represented everything which is important to me with regard to photographic art. The image has a tone that draws your eye, holds you there and encourages you to stay with the image.The image would sit comfortable within The Tate Modern. “The portrait album that James submitted has a beauty and elegance which tells a story, unique only to the character within and that is what makes this collection of images so powerful and rewarding to all those allowed to share the story.”

Her use of space and the environment within her pictures creates an image that moves from portraiture to art all at the same time and the way she uses landscapes within her pictures produces images which are both dynamic and moving all at the same time.When we studied the overall collection of images whether a child or a grown up, Jo’s connection to the people and the landscape around them made the images stand tall and said all there is to be said about where photography is at today.”  Click here to view the runner up portrait album (3.3Mb) Celebrations - Winner Brett HarknessClick here to view client profile Photographer Brett Harkness won a first place award in the category of Celebrations in the 2007 Annabel Williams Photographic Awards as well as scooping 2nd place in the Wedding Album category and a highly commended in the Portrait Album category.
