Awards & Recognitions

Thank you to Skateboard GB so much for selecting my image of Molly and Amber in Blackpool as a 'British Skate Culture' winner of the first ever UK Skateboard Photography Awards with Samsung Electronics. Proud to have been documenting the female skate scene in the North West over the years. The image selected was from my series 'Skate like a lass'! 🛹 🩷

The were judges Leo Sharp, Garry Jones and Mike Edwards who had the incredibly difficult job of deciding onwinners from the 260+ entries which they received.

A huge thanks to Samsung Electronics for supporting the awards and supporting skateboarding.

SKATE LIKE A LASS


Interview with Museum of Youth Culture
"I feel like I'm an archivist, definitely. And a lot of my social documentary work is always thinking about how these images will outlive us all. So how can I best represent you, the person I'm photographing, and how do you want to be seen?"

Grounded in the question of how images live on, photographer and filmmaker @julietklottrup documents rural communities in the North West whose stories often remain undocumented. Her most recent project Skate Like a Lass platforms the collectives providing a safe space for young female skaters to hone their craft. We sat down with her to talk about what drives her work.

About the Sony Future Filmmaker Awards 2025:
This major program for filmmakers worldwide opens doors to new opportunities and connections, acting as a stepping stone for up-and-coming filmmakers. The shortlist will be flown to Los Angeles at the beginning of June to take part in a four-day workshop program culminating in a red carpet Awards ceremony.

When I first premiered the film to Joe on a laptop in a cosy pub deep in Yorkshire and had his blessing to share it with the world neither of us could have imagined how far it would reach.
The response to his words, the land and heritage has been profound and widespread. I'm deeply grateful to all the talented hands who joined us on this journey.
