AP\u2019s Group Editor, Nigel Atherton made the following announcement:\u00a0\u201cThis year we have a brand new award that we\u2019ll be presenting here for the first time, and every year from now on. And it is dedicated to the memory of Chris Cheesman. When Chris passed away we wanted to find a fitting way to remember him, and so we decided to create a new annual award, the Chris Cheesman Memorial Award, which will be given to an individual who has made an outstanding contribution to the UK Photographic industry. The award itself is in the form of a crystal decanter, so that the winner can have a drink to Chris every time they use it.\u201d<\/p>\n\t\t<div id=&quot;attachment_101099&quot;  class=\"c-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 1044px\">\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-101099\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/APAwards2017\u2013-61.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2017\/02\/APAwards2017\u2013-61.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2017\/02\/APAwards2017\u2013-61.jpg?resize=300,200 300w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2017\/02\/APAwards2017\u2013-61.jpg?resize=600,400 600w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2017\/02\/APAwards2017\u2013-61.jpg?resize=900,600 900w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2017\/02\/APAwards2017\u2013-61.jpg?resize=562,375 562w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\t\t\t<p class=\"c-caption__text\">Announcement of the Chris Cheesman Memorial Award<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<p>This was shortly followed by a video tribute, which received a standing ovation from the whole room. Chris\u2019s partner, Grazia, his sister Louise and his brother Nick came to the stage to present the award. The winner of the inaugural Chris Cheesman Memorial Award for Outstanding Contribution to the Photographic Industry was the founder and MD of Sigma Imaging, Graham Armitage.<\/p>\n<p>Group Editor, Nigel Atherton, had this to say; \u201cThere are a number of people in this room who have dedicated the best part of their lives to the trade, any one of whom deserves to win, but when I started canvassing for suggestions one name came cropping up. The winner of this award began his career in the photo trade in 1976, the year before these awards began, at Tudor Photographic. In 1978 he joined CZ Scientific, helping with promotions and exhibitions, liaising with retailers, and handling the PR. As well as being the UK distributor for Praktica cameras and Carl Zeiss Jena lenses, CZ Scientific, which later became Jenoptic, also managed a Japanese brand that he is still associated with, indeed is synonymous with, 39 years later. That brand is Sigma.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>The winners of the other 26 awards are as follows:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Power of Photography<\/strong> &#8211; Nick Brandt<\/p>\n\t\t<div id=&quot;attachment_101116&quot;
