MPA Diploma in Photographic Practice

Although I studied photography over 25 years ago I have just passed my Diploma in Photographic Practice and I now have a professional qualification with the MPA as an Associate Master Photographer.
The MPA is the only association for 'professional only' photographers. They judge you on the images you create, camera craft, lighting and posing, your business practices, customer care, marketing, health and safety and legal requirements.
Any one booking a Master Photographer can be assured they are booking a photographer that works to the highest standards.
With many press reports of  bad wedding photographers brides today are becoming more aware that rather than looking for the cheapest photographer they need to be looking for high quality, full time, qualified professionals.


Award of Excellence for Weddings and Portraits


Last week I received two Regional Awards of Excellence in the Wedding category and a second in the Portrait category to go with 3 merits for Cherubs Baby Photography, the 3 images are in the Cherubs final where one of my clients could win £10,000.
The wedding image was taken last October at Holbrook House in Somerset. The portrait image was a pre-wedding engagement shoot last summer.

Specialists in Wedding & Portrait Photography: AMPA Qualification

AMPA Qualification

I presented my panel of 20 images at Focus in March at the NEC for judging by the expert competition judges from the Master Photographers Association for my Licentiateship qualification only to be told that they weren't Licentiateship standard, they were better and upgraded me to the Associate level. I am the second person only to have done this.

I then had to submit my diploma workbook which I did last week and have now officially received my qualification. This is great for me because I can enter their National Competitions. Customers also know they are booking a photographer that not only works to a high standard producing quality products and has the right business structure, customer care, insurance, and legal documentation you would expect from a professional business team.
