Speaking after being shortlisted for an award, Ritchie from Ritchie Coatsworth Photography said: "I'm absolutely ecstatic with the news that we've been shortlisted for a Rural Business Award. Receiving this recognition from the Rural Business Awards and Amazon as only one of two County Durham based businesses to make into the finals is the icing on the cake of what's been a great journey for my business. I can't wait to attend the Regional Final later this year."
