Sterling Prize
The Ashmolean has made the shortlist for this years Sterling Prize! Fantastic news. There’s some interesting projects on there especially the DSDHA school as well as the incredibly beautiful Theis & Khan studio and apartment.
The coverage in the national press has been huge! I’m definitely a big believer that normal press is far more useful than the journals. I’ve been fortunate enough to have a few of my images published on the BBC, Guardian, Independent and RIBA Journal amongst others. What I’m also really pleased about is that the image below seems to have become a signature image with most publications choosing to go with this one. Great exposure for Rick and of course Andy Matthews Photography!
The bad news? Well some people aren’t very good at crediting the Photographers. BBC & RIBA Journal I’m looking in your direction!

Why don’t you watermark your photos? Then the publishers have to contact you to get the unwatermarked version for publication.
Yeah it’s a bit difficult. Once they have the images on their server they seem to use them whenever they see fit but without credit.
The images were all shot for the office and provided as a press pack. Obviously given to the journals for free on the condition o a credit.
Starting to learn the value of these images – the hard way!
