In the (virtual) Pink Lady Awards

We were so excited to have so many Lucid photographers shortlisted for the 2020 Pink Lady Food Photo of Year Awards, including Con Poulos, Yuki Sugiura, Rowan Fee and Steven Joyce  – and looking forward to one of our favourite events of the year…when the world changed.

Like everything else, the actual evening event was cancelled, but with the awards running live online,  we still dressed up with a glass of fizz to cheer on our photographers in style – even if we were at home in front of the computer! It was great to watch Steven Joyce’s painterly portrait of Sian Henley get highly commended in the “On the Phone” category and Rowan Fee’s exploding pomegranate being awarded 2nd place in the “Fujifilm award for Innovation”.  You can see all the winners here – hope it doesn’t make you too hungry:  https://www.pinkladyfoodphotographeroftheyear.com/finalists-gallery-2020/in a virtual gallery style view on their website: https://www.pinkladyfoodphotographeroftheyear.com/virtual-exhibition-2020/

 

David Boni win at the IPA awards

Many congratulations to David Boni for his win at the IPA awards for this project – for one of his favourites jobs of the year creating these witty and lively portraits:

This campaign promotes the National Library of Scotland’s free exhibition ‘Northern Lights: The Scottish Enlightenment.’From David Hume to Adam Smith, figures of the Scottish Enlightenment created, discussed and refined ideas that challenged established views and had a profound effect on the society we live in. Their ideas of science, philosophy, language and economics shook the world.

 

Winner Winner!

Congratulations to Tom Parker for winning  the “InterContinental Food at the Table”  at The Pink Lady Food Photography Awards last week – one of our favourite nights of the year (thanks to Tattinger and the fab Caroline Kenyon). It was great to see Tom’s work up on the wall, and we’re looking forward to next years competition already!

Tom Parker won first prize in the Politics of Food category and Susan was second in the Food of the World category.
