SAN FRANCISCO – October 25, 2003 – Orange Photography has been selected as a finalist for the Integration of Online/Offline Experience category in the 1st Annual Webby Business Awards. The Webby Business Awards honor companies that excel at using the web as a mature tool to achieve critical business goals. The awards are produced by The Academy, which also presents the annual Webby Awards, now in their eighth year. The Academy launched the Webby Business Awards last fall as a separate awards program aimed at recognizing the best business practices online.
“Our nomination in the Integration of Online & Offline experience category is apropos as it fundamentally reflects exactly where we want to be as a brand.” states Jack Huynh, CEO of Orange Photography. “Since day one, we have been vigilant in presenting the highest level of brand experience to our clients and customers at every interaction point. We’re excited that the Webby Awards recognize the significance of our effort despite the small size of our organization. Simply being recognized in a field of Goliaths in this particular category is a rewarding achievement.”
“The genius behind Orange Photography is the catalytic energy of a small but focused group of individuals seeking to cultivate a vision built on art, commerce, and character,” comments Ryan Hicks, Orange Photography’s Creative Director. “The challenge to integrate these concepts is a ongoing process but our effort is beginning to reach fruition. We appreciate the recognition at this juncture by The Webby Awards but there is still much ahead for us.”
