Ian Cartwright's Caramel Photography
Hello. I’m Ian Cartwright.
They tell me I'm a highly respected photographer. I work mainly in Cheshire and Manchester but I do cover the rest of the UK.
My range of photography is very wide, including advertising, fashion, family and corporate portraits, commercial products, weddings, fashion and boudoir.
I was the first, and to date still am, the only professional photographer in the UK who can call himself a "Master Qualified European Photographer" or MQEP. (View my MQEP album) This is the highest professional photographic qualification available in Europe.
I am a Fellow of the Master Photographer Association (FMPA Commercial) and achieved Fellowship of the British Institute of Professional Photography in 1989 in the field of Advertising and Fashion.
I have always been proud of my qualifications and have made it a policy to enter as many competitions as is practicable. I have had the honor of being invited over many years to judge the work of other professionals, for competitions and qualifications.
Awards give credibility, but the most important thing is whether you like me and my work. I suggest you take time to scan through the most relevant parts of my website, and make sure you look at a few testimonials.
If awards are important to you, here are some of the many I have won over the years:
