I was recently engaged by The Friends of the Botanic Gardens to print an exhibition of stunning images from the 2010 International Garden Photographer of the Year (IGPOTY).
Exhibited annually in the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, this is the first time it has been shown outside of the UK. The Sydney exhibition features over 90 entries and includes two amazing portfolios from Australian photographers. Claire Takacs captures beautiful light, stunning landscapes and the breathtaking wild flowers of central Australia while Debbie Hartley has frozen plants and flowers in blocks of ice creating imaginative, translucent pictures.
While I have printed my own exhibitions for many years and from time to time printed small runs for other photographers and artists, this is the first major exhibition I have printed. Before being awarded the job, sample prints were sent to the UK to ensure they met the exacting standards set by the Kew Gardens. Please get in touch if you have an exhibition coming up - I'll be very happy to explain my services.
The Exhibition runs from August 11- 28, 2011 in the Lion Gate Lodge in Sydney's Royal Botanic Gardens. It really is worth a visit - the very aptly named 'Friends of the Gardens' volunteers look forward to seeing you there.
Also on show will be the winners and a selection of finalists from the 2010 Friends of the Royal Botanic Gardens (Sydney) 'Gardens in Focus' photography competition. Entries are being accepted now for the 2011 competition. There's $10,000 in cash prizes to be shared around so start clicking!

Furthering my association the Friends of the Botanic Gardens I will be offering workshops in October and November that will help the enthusiast DSLR photographer make environmental portraits like a pro. Details will be on the Friends website soon but feel free to email me if you are interested.

Hi Paul, I'm so excited to see some photos of this exhibition, especially as one of my images is being exhibited I believe! I wonder if you have any stills of the exhibition suitable for web viewing - I would love to add a pic to my website? I'm sure I spotted my image in the corner one of your slideshow images! Anyway, thank you so much for creating this blog entry - it's made my day!
