Dr Anne Sutcliffe FRPS EFIAP
In 1982, Anne's father, John Sutcliffe FRPS, inspired her interest in photography when she discovered that instinctively she could identify
which of his images would be successful. The transition from successful ‘judge’ to successful photographer was not easy but eventually,
with her father’s help, she got there.
With support from her long term partner Alan Millward (and husband as of 2009), Anne's photographic horizons broadened. She developed a personal style
and her pictures have been described as pastel or pale and interesting. As a sideline, her pictures of ladies’ loos
are a source of frequent comment! Anne's best pictures are those that tell stories and can only appreciated by close and considered
examination.
Anne has been successful on the international amateur exhibition circuit and has been invited to judge and lecture nationally and internationally.
She is proud to be not only an invited member of the London Salon but also of the Eyecon Group, whose appraisal and wisdom has led to the creation
of many successful images. She is currently one of three chairs of the Licentiate Assessment Panel appointed by the Royal Photographic Society.
For many years Anne helped to run the Association of Anaesthetists of Great Britain and Ireland Art Exhibition, curating it from 2004 to 2008.
Encouraging professional doctors to display and develop their hidden artistic talents proved to be a magical experience.
