A stunning image captured by world-class photographer, Guy Farrow, featuring post production by Leeds-based Turn Key’s Creative Director, Richard Colvill has scooped a prestigious Association of Photographers (AOP) Sun Award.The photograph features Yorkshire-born professional triathlete, Dion Harrison and is part of a series commissioned for his new website; which has also been designed and built by integrated communications agency, Turn Key. Not only did the shoot require highly skilled photography, but also involved hours of careful post-production work.
With over 16 years design industry experience, Richard Colvill specialises in digital retouching and Turn Key clients include prestigious brands such as Porsche and Sony. Richard and Guy have been collaborating on projects for more than eight years; and this is the third time their combined work has been featured in the awards.
The image shows Dion, jumping through glass and was created to demonstrate his incredible strength and fitness. Richard commented, “The concept was derived to establish Dion as one of the best in his field and was used in the website collateral as a campaign to create serious sponsorship opportunities. We had a lot of fun with the photo shoot, breaking creative boundaries, as well as a large amount of glass! It was definitely a challenge, but the dramatic end result makes it worthwhile and I’m delighted to see the image showcased in the awards.”
The AOP Sun Awards showcase and reward the North’s best professional photography, and all winners see their work displayed in a prestigious exhibition which travels around the UK. Birstall-based Guy Farrow is a leader in UK photography and has now been featured in these awards for over 20.
