Park Cameras Wins an Amateur Photographer Good Service Award 2026

On Thursday, 26th February 2026, we were overjoyed as we were presented with an Amateur Photographer Magazine Good Service Award at beautiful Bloomsbury Ballroom, just a stones throw away from our store at 34 Rathbone Place, London.

For almost half a century, the prestigious AP Awards have celebrated the best photographic products and services of the year, as well as the honouring individuals who, through their passion, dedication, and talent, have become catalysts for change in an ever-evolving industry. From seasoned professionals to emerging talents, the AP Awards celebrate the photographers who have made a difference and sparked inspiration.

The 2026 awards continued this celebration of photography, showcasing the finest photography from celebrated professionals to rising stars, with their People’s Choice awards honouring the AP community’s favourite products from 2025 – this year featuring a record-breaking number of votes.

The AP Awards also recognizes the UK’s best photo retailers through the Good Service Awards which are voted for by AP readers and independent photo retailers’ customers. A Good Service Award is a signpost that says: ‘This is a business you can trust’, rewarding those that go the extra mile for their customers, providing them with the right information and the right products – all at a great price.

Be assured of a great customer experience

Regarding the accolade, Park Cameras Commercial Director Frank Keenan commented, “We’re absolutely delighted to have received the Amateur Photographer Good Service Award once again in 2026, marking more than a decade of consistent recognition. Delivering outstanding customer care - whether in-store, online, or over the phone - remains at the heart of what we do, with our team committed to providing straightforward, knowledgeable advice tailored to photographers and content creators across the UK. It’s incredibly rewarding to see our dedication acknowledged, and we’re sincerely grateful to everyone who voted for us.”
