What a night! Last night the SA AIPP held their State Awards Dinner at the Tivoli Hotel in Adelaide. We had an inkling we were in the running for the Commercial category (sponsored by CR Kennedy and Hasselblad) and absolutely elated when it was announced that we’d won. However, that was just the beginning. After all of the category winners had been announced (congratulations to everyone who got a gong!) we were all lined up on stage in preparation for the announcement of the overall winner.

Sponsored by EPSON, the 2010 South Australian AIPP Professional Photographer of the year is…..Liam West!

To be singled out amongst all of the amazing entrants has to be the most rewarding feeling and makes all of Lightly Salted’s hard work well worth while. It’s unfortunate that the other half of the team (Lisa) couldn’t be there last night as she’s in the UK celebrating her Grandmother’s 100th birthday – we figured that trumped the possibility of winning!

I’d like to take this opportunity to thank everyone and anyone that’s involved in our lives, we work very hard to grow our business and you are all very understanding and supportive. You all know who you are, I don’t want to single people out in case I forget someone!

Lastly a giant thanks to all of this years sponsors, we couldn’t have had such a great event without you all.
