The 2010 Judges
Peter AshworthPhotographer Peter Ashworth has always been fascinated with the original, the heroes, the creators of our age. Whether they be musicians, designers, stylists, street strollers or the unknown, if they have presence and a style they can call their own then collaboration is in the air. Having been in a number of bands in his youth, shooting sleeves for records was a natural progression, always shot as if he was a member. Fashion is now the main focus, since he believes that the most original and potent images of today come from that arena. Editorial work is his new portfolio. www.ashworth-photos.com Karin BerndlPhotographerKarin was born in Austria, studied photography in Vienna, but found her true creative home in London where she has lived and worked for the past 13 years.

He continues to work as a professional photographer, however since the summer of 2009 he has combined this with editing Professional Photographer magazine.
