TiR Peer Praise: Elodie Ruelleux-Dagorne on Patrick Lombaert
Delighted to have another Peer Praise piece today, where our members highlight and praise a fellow member – whether that’s because of their photography, or them as a person; whatever reason 🙂 Elodie Ruelleux-Dagorne (top-left / TiR / Website) has sent in pieces about two different members; today she’s talking about Patrick Lombaert (top-right / TiR / Website).

To celebrate 100,000 #thisisreportage hashtag uses we’re giving away 100,000 hours of membership!
We were blown away to discover that there has been 100,000 uses of the #thisisreportage hashtag on Instagram! That’s amazing; 100,000 images tagged with #thisisreportage – humbling, and an honour to be helping to increase the prominence of this art that we love and is so important: documentary wedding photography.
To celebrate this milestone of 100,000 #thisisreportage hashtag uses, we’re going to be giving away 100,000 hours of membership! 100,000 hours equates to 11.4 years, but we’re going to round that up to 12 – so, basically, it’s a bit of a long-winded way to say that we’re giving away 12 annual memberships! This is a total prize-pool value of £1200 (as membership is usually £100/year).
