Hi Hugh

This photograph is a masterpiece.

You should do a very limited editon at a very large size and flog it to the banks that feature in it

Hi Hugh,

Here’s what I did with the illustration you photographed so well. If you’d like a larger version, in any format, please ask.

Will settle your (very reasonable) bill on the morrow.

See you again,

Dear Hugh,

Happy new year!

Thank you for doing such a lovely job with the Red Shoes print. I am very happy with how it came out.

About another painting

It's probably best you re-shoot the painting, so that would need to be added to the quote(s).
I have a professionally-shot TIF and JPG, but I know you could do a much better job, and I imagine you'd be happier working from your own shots (is "shots" the correct lingo?)

Dear Hugh Gilbert
My late husband Ivor Abrahams, whom you photographed in the past for the Royal Academy, died in January this year.
They used one of your great photographs of Ivor in his London studio for their website.
 It really is such a great picture.  I need similar studio shots for a sculpture show at the Mayor Gallery in January 2016

Many thanks

Evelyne Abrahams

Hi there Hugh and thanks ever so much for the great photo record of our ditches here.

Dear All

You've not all met, but thanks to your various pieces of amazing help today we have just published the Chelsea Arts Club 'Present to the Future' brochure and animation. Thank you all so much for your kindness and patience, particularly in the last fraught three days!

Very particular thanks to Dan (and Rob and Joe) for the amazing animation and to Simon for the truly wonderful brochure; and a special shout out to Hugh, Stephen and Sarah who all rode to the rescue in various ways in the last 12 hours.

I'll be in touch with Rob and Simon again on Monday re a few tiny tweaks (and printing in Simon's case) but in the meantime, as I say, a thousand thanks to you all.

All very best

Geoffrey

I especially enjoyed Hugh Gilbert’s panorama session, in which he stepped us through making a panorama of the group, discussing the range of equipment and software available and imparting lots of tips along the way.

Hugh,  thank you so much.  The images are beautiful!  We have listed them and shall work on them this afternoon.  J&J.

Things are going swimmingly here in san Fran...I will send you an ad they are putting in a local mag...the Americans are so professional and the gallery guys fun to work with...

They have re-named the show by my subtitle for Hanging Out (An Affectionate Archive). I think it works really well and carries a bit more 'weight' in print...

Are you meeting up with Hannah this Thursday? If not, can we come and see you next Thursday? I will have another print order for you now that I have seen what SFAE thinks will sell.

We can also talk about the archive then....let me know how your schedule is please...

Everyone LOVES your prints of M and R with the red balloons, Mick with sunglasses, Neil in the car, and Bonnie!

Dear Hugh

The pictures are quite amazing,I didn't know such photography was possible! I'm sure my Polish niece will be restored when she finally receives copies and of course other family members in (Poland (and France) may decide they too want copies.

It's also very good that we now have the possibility of reproducing the other pictures, if Adam and James wish to do so. I have had great pleasure looking at the photos of them-much more accessible!

June Rieger

My caption with tribute to you!!

The lighter image on the right was originally a Polaroid of Mick that i took in 1976, but my printer, Hugh Gilbert, made a double image as a homage to Robert Mapplethorpe.
I liked it so much that I kept it this way. It's fun to play around with images sometimes. Mick took a Polaroid of me at the same time.

Carinthia West

Dear Hugh/Phil,
 
I would like to take a moment to thank you for taking the time to speak at this year’s conference.  I know that I am not alone when I say that your presentation a real highlight of the day.  Seeing new technology, show us things in new ways is, after all, what photography strives for. The opportunity to view visually stunning panoramas was also greatly received.

Thank you for supporting the Association, and I hope to see you at further AHFAP Conferences and events.

Hi Hugh,
 
It was successful thanks, they love the view below, so we are going with this one. We very quickly added some more sky to it for the meeting.
 
They are keen for a dusk/night shot. Will call you shortly.

As usual they're excellent. Really good job.
Thanks so much. Especially appreciate you joining them all together as well for no extra charge

The top image of Angus is incredible!!!
I think the image of Bonnie is still a little blue and saturated, if Hugh has time to do anything more it would be great, but otherwise he is a master genius!!! Love him!!

Hugh, I collected the print yesterday. It's superb, an excellent job. Thanks a lot.
I'm transferring the money to your bank today.
I am exhibiting the original drawing over the summer. With a bit of luck I'll get a few orders for prints. Can I assume that roughly £80 will be your charge per print?
All the best, Chris

I've just looked at the drawings you sent through. Thank you SO much! You've done a really fantastic job, I couldn't have hoped for better. I've tried so many different ways of scanning/ photographing these drawings and nothing worked. These look great though!!

Thank you thank you,

Being at the vanguard of this technology, Hugh Gilbert and Phil Conrad have acquired invaluable experience in utilising this resource in the most cost effective and efficient manner. The access, mobility and highest quality photography provides an invaluable reference that hitherto has not been possible.
 
Moreover, this can be made available to Clients and provide an incredible database for future referencing.
 
For major works, the ability to use such reference documentation avoids ambiguity and provides infinitely superior information for all manner of operation including tendering for major operations. 
 
Hugh and Phil are pre-eminent in this field. Coupled with the ability to secure swift approvals (an OSC) in this tightly ever regulated arena, they are now arguably one of the leading firms in this field.

Yes Hugh that looks pretty good on my screen  and very true to colour as well. Well done. Sorry about making a meal of it. However I have learnt about the neutral grey and outside  lighting. I think the kodak colour patch I used was  somewhat faded and old so yanking it was probably the right thing to do.

Perfect job done thanks  very much again. I owe you a drink !

I really enjoyed attending your workshop at the conference last month, and I am hoping to make some panoramas of my own in the coming months. Would it be possible to get a copy of the photo you made of our group? I was in the 2nd session on the Wednesday.

So smooth was the operation that I was making coffee at the time and didn't even notice it had happened!! They are simply wonderful - warm, engaging, characterful. Really beautiful portraits. Thank you so very much Hugh

Geoffrey Matthews

No one could quite believe the quality of the print they got on Sunday, after chapel at Knole. They look so good, and taking the background colour across the border makes a lot of difference. And all beautifully trimmed, and interleaved, and lovely! Thank you very much. I have another £100 for you: I hope we will see you soon.

Love from us all,  Simon

Hi Hugh,

Hi Hugh

First print just arrived, it looks perfect. Great quality, identical to the first edition. 
Thanks for doing it so promptly. 

I have also received the large images via web transfer. Not being very skilful in matters of IT I will have to wait for my partner to show me how to access it. I look forward to it. 

Thanks for everything

You are an angel Hugh! And fabulous! And FAST!!!

It's ferier time so we went to a bullfight last night. Extraordinary. Public torment, torture and execution of 6 bulls. I'm still very conflicted about that but I couldn't take my eyes off the action. I wish I had a better camera sometimes.

See you soon…

Dear Hugh,
 
I'm so pleased with the prints, especially those that took some time to get colour-right, but now they are spot on.
 
Regarding the 'Earth from Space' one, done from old colour tranny, looking at other 'red border' ones, I think the white bloom is actually light reflection on the glaze.  So I'd be grateful if you would do two more large ones, size height 35cm, with the red cleaned up somewhat.
 
I shall be at the club tonight around 6-7.30 and again Sunday evening, possibly on Saturday too (can't keep me away!). Or could pop round to your studio, whatever suits you.
 
Again many thanks for superb prints!

Good morning Hugh

I have just downloaded the new files!
It's so exciting!!!

The image of White Gold captures the painting perfectly! I am so happy.
It works so well - the contrasts between lights and darks, the reflections, the subtleties of colour in the sky. everything is just beautiful. Thank you!!!

I am just now writing my report to my institution about the conference at the Rijks and was currently writing about your workshop, which was great.  That reminded me, you said you would send us the 360 portrait of my group and I just wanted to follow up on that.  I believe I was in the second slot on the first day – Will Michels.

Thanks.

Dear Hugh,

Thank you very much for your mail.

Just now, a few minutes ago I discovered your wonderful pictures and the two brochures. They had been put in my office, but in a place, where I would never look. In other words, they had been here practically all the time, but ‚hiding‘. I am very happy to see them, very beautiful. Thank you very much.

Cordially yours,

Dear Hugh,

ThAnK you for the panorama images and footage. They are fantastic!!. I am guessing I can pass these for the book?

If you get a moment I would love a photo of the robot arms folding a leaf and a portrait of our team, when you can.
Please let me know if I am to go ahead and pass 'photographs by Hugh Gilbert of RoboFold’ to: press online, print and publications.
Should I cc you on these occasions or should I just notify you?

Sounds like you are having a busy time, I hope it is exciting..

Dear Bella and Hugh, 

Liz has forwarded me the wonderful pictures of Basil's new paintings. I was wondering whether you had any very high res images of these new works as would be interested in potentially using one of these for the poster,  'Step Up On' would be really lovely to use.  If you could let me know if a high res version of this is available that would be great. Our designer is working on designs currently.
