A magazine page titled "Commercial and Industrial" features an image by Tim Simpson, who won first place. The page includes a photo of a warehouse and a brief description of how he captured the shot. Judge Sarah Edmunds provides comments on the image.

Over the years I have been lucky enough to have won many awards and most recently I’ve been very proud to win a few more.

The wonderful thing is that they were voted for by a panel of industry experts on behalf of the most popular professional photographers magazine: Pro Photo.

Aside from COMMERCIAL PHOTOGRAPHER OF THE YEAR I also won SCOOLS AND EVENTS PHOTOGRAPHER OF THE YEAR, for my event/editorial coverage. This was a wonderful surprise as nobody has ever won 2 awards in this competition.. it’s hard enough to win one.

Thank you Pro Photo Magazine!
