2011 UKBC Final

By admin • Commentary • 17 Mar 2011

Yesterday I had the privilege of shooting the Final of the UKBC 2011, held at the IFE event in Excel, London

In challenging lighting conditions* and with limited range of movement I managed to bag a few keepers

1st- John Gordon (Gorilla Tampers / Square Mile Coffee Roasters)
2nd – Neil Le Bihan (Dark Fluid / Exchange Coffee)
3rd – Dale Harris (Has Bean)
4th – Maxwell Colonna Dashwood (Colonna & Smalls)
5th – Hayley Draper (The Window Coffee)
6th – Alice Cook (Taste of Bitter Love / Coffee by the Clock)

Best Espresso – John Gordon
Best Cappuccino – Neil Le Bihan
Best Signature Drink – joint winners Neil and John

My favourite photo (so far) is

*stage lights and reflective surfaces don’t mix. Glossy milk scores points but plays havoc with exposure and metering
