Eversley & California photographer Richard Milam has been nominated for the Berkshire Football Awards in NG Sports Photography Best individual Photo or Media category.
Mr Milam is well known in local football circles and was previously a player, turning out regularly for Bracknell Town and coaching at the Robins, Binfield and Finchampstead.
In recent seasons, Richard’s images have graced Football in Berkshire, The Wokingham Paper and other publications and his work has made him an important part of the promotion of the Combined Counties League Division One side to the wider non-league audience.
Among the nominations received for Richard and his work, one said: “Richard has gone above and beyond any photographer, especially for this level. Travelling to both home and away games just to grab content for the club and for each individual player in the squad – to take the time out of his personal life to send us these photos just shows how far he is willing to go to please us as individuals and as a team!”
Another added: “I am nominating Richard for his incredible commitment and quality to Eversley and California FC he’s not only a great photographer but also a great person. His images aren’t just perfect moments but they are great memories. Richard makes the game day on Saturday something to look forward to and has never failed to attend match day be it in the sunshine or the horrible rain.”
A third simply said: “Richard is at our games rain or shine and has captured some outstanding moments, that have been put up around the changing room. He’s committed to Eversley and all the boys love his work!”
