INVITED TO CARNEGIE HALL

NEW YORK!

So… In October I was invited to Carnegie Hall in New York! Another amazing moment in my life! The International Photographers Association invited me along to receive certification for winning a Highly Commended award for this image of 3 beautiful English Setters. Narrowly missing out on a top three prize which were claimed by photographers in America & Japan. Not too shabby for a simple portrait photographer from little old Leamington Spa! So happy to be able to offer my customers a truly International service and do so in a way that brings nothing but happiness & joy to everyone!

These 3 Beautiful English Setters were taken on a private commission. This stunning location in Kenilworth is one of my favorite places to take dogs. Why? Because lots of breeds but especially Gun Dog types just love it up there And so do I!!

PRESS RELEASE!

Local Dog Photographer Christine Burke has won international acclaim with her dog portraits. Christine entered the International Photography Awards and has won an Honourable Mention and been invited to attend the spectacular Gala Awards evening at Carnegie Hall in New York.

Hossein Farmani, President of the IPA said, “In another tremendous year for IPA, we received thousands of highly qualified entries from all around the World and our esteemed international Jury Panel voted according to each entry’s originality, creativity, excellence of execution, and overall impact in their selected categories. The strength of this year’s entries made their task of selecting the winners very difficult indeed.”

Christine said, “I love creating dog portraits here in Warwickshire and to be representing Leamington on the international stage is just amazing!” Christine is based in Bishops Tachbrook and photographs trained and untrained dogs and it always involves lots of laughter!

Because I choose to work with Children and Animals I’m often referred to as mad! But honestly, there is no greater joy then creating something that I know my customer, their children and their children’s children will cherish for the rest of their lives!
