Correna Newton

Correna Newton (1969 - 2010) was the Library Manager of Flower Photos Ltd, a widely respected 'boutique' image library created by photographer Carol Sharp.

As an environmentally aware photography graduate, Newton had hoped to work with an image library with an emphasis on the natural world. Since 2004 she had been aware of the Flower Photos library but only hoped that she might get to know them. She joined the business and her talent was soon recognised, quickly becoming Library Manager. In 2009 Flower Photos downsized and only Newton and Carol Sharp were left to maintain the business, with Newton responsible for day-to-day operations. Universally respected for her integrity and her passion for images of the natural world, she managed to motivate contributing photographers and clients alike to bring the business back into profit virtually single-handed.

On 28 September 2010 Newton died as a result of injuries she sustained in a road accident during her brief holiday on the island of Poros. In November Carol Sharp gathered tributes from the many photographers who knew and loved her, publishing them alongside photographs in a book: Correna (ISBN 10-02009-46454-7)
