Photographer Sarah is on the guild's podium
Sarah Hargreaves, who runs Sugar Photography, claimed seven bronzes and two classifieds in the Guild of Photographers’ Image of the Month competition.
The 44-year-old mum-of-two said: “I was absolutely amazed and overwhelmed. I entered a variety of landscapes, weddings and portraits. The judges say ‘The Bronze bar is only awarded to images of a strong standard in this national competition and is something to be proud of’.”

Hide AdMrs Hargreaves has been into photography since she was a teenager but it was the sad loss of her father, Horbury businessman Bob Hammerton, that probably pushed her into taking it further. She added: “I needed something new to concentrate on. After attending my cousin’s wedding - where I took some lovely photos of them, even though I wasn’t the official photographer - I kept getting asked why I didn’t take this up professionally. So I then embarked on several wedding and newborn photography courses and joined the Guild of Photographers.”
