Business Photography for camera-shy professionals

On World Literacy Day I wanted to give a shout-out

On World Literacy Day I wanted to give a shout-out to all the libraries and librarians out there. I am passionate about the value that libraries can give to communities and in particular setting children up for a lifetime of enjoyment of reading and learning.

We are so lucky in Minchinhampton that we have volunteers who are prepared to offer their time and enthusiasm to our local community library, but honestly I wish that it didn’t have to depend on volunteers and was still part of the council funded system.

Give me a yes and an emoji if you love libraries too! 📕

I’m so lucky, my husband knows me so well that he got me the perfect anniversary present - plants! So this weekend I have had fun planting them out and the rather neglected flower bed is looking so much more colourful.

What do you like to get as a present?

Photofilm about Shiatsu. My client found her Photofilm really helped explain what it is she does, so it is crystal clear to her potential clients. This is particularly helpful as many people don’t really know what Shiatsu is.

Do you find that people don’t always have a clear understanding of your business and what your approach is?

Had such a lovely walk with @judithhumphreys_holistic today at Woodchester Park. Somehow we ended up in a completely different place from where we started 🤣. This isn't entirely a surprise as my sense of direction is notoriously terrible.

Are you one of those enviable people who always know where they are and which way to go or are you like me? Give me a quick thumbs up or down for your sense of direction 👍🏼👎🏼

On National Lipstick Day I thought I would share one of the photos I took of @siandavies_stylingforyou with her vibrant, colourful lipsticks, as part of the Photofilm I created for her.

What is a Photofilm? I hear you ask. A Photofilm is a unique way of taking your clients on a customer journey, through a series of smoothly transitioning images with bespoke voiceover. People can really make that connection with you by hearing your voice and seeing how you work.

Drop me a message if you would like to know more about my Photofilms.

It’s National Cherry Day today! We have a lovely cherry tree in our garden, but if we don’t take special measures 🙄, the birds, particularly jackdaws eat all the cherries before we can pick them! Cheeky!

I know it does look a bit strange, but swipe across to see what we do to ensure we get some cherries from our tree.

What strange things do you do in your garden? (Nothing rude, please!)

I really enjoy baking and so we’re going into the weekend with a blueberry and thyme frangipane tart! I’m sure it won’t last long! The thyme is fresh from the garden and adds an interesting subtle flavour.

What are you doing to treat yourself this weekend?

Client review - I still get so excited when my clients receive their photos and they really love them.

And when they tell me they “actually enjoyed” having their photo taken, is music to my ears, as so many of people come to me initially saying they don’t like their photo being taken.

Please get in touch if you are one of those people who are camera-shy, as I can help.

I love nature and it’s really relaxing to just slow down and watch what is going on in the natural world. This beautiful dragonfly just landed on the Dianthus in my garden.

What do you do to relax?

Such a lovely day for a catch-up netwalk with Carolyn Williams of Nutmeg Properties on #MinchinhamptonCommon

I love it there, it’s so beautiful at the moment with all the buttercups out (as well as the cows, of course). And I am always finding different routes to walk around it.

What’s your favourite place for a netwalk with a business buddy?

We have some lovely and unexpected visitors to our small garden pond - a pair of Mallards! They have visited a few times now and have made themselves quite at home.

I think they deserve to have names. What shall we call them?

Wow! Overnight snow up here in Minchinhampton. I know the weather has been a bit changeable this Spring, but I wasn’t expecting that!

Do not be put off booking your outdoor photoshoot with me, as:

It’s unlikely to snow again like that this month … probably 🥶
Even if it does, it is very pretty 😊

So please drop me a DM so we can organise your lovely business photoshoot!

Happy Easter Monday! Having a lazy day watching the newts in the pond. It’s that time of year when we have hundreds of newts in our pond and there is nothing more relaxing than sitting and watching them.

Have you got anything planned today?

Happy Easter weekend everyone! It's hot cross bun day! Here's some cherry and coconut buns I made previously. However, certain people in this house prefer more traditional raisin and spiced buns, so I'm just going to get started on making some now.

Which do you prefer: traditional hot cross buns or new exciting flavours? 😋

A few people have said to me recently they don’t think you can take photos in the fog, but there’s really no reason not to: you just need to be aware of the lighting and what you need to do to highlight your subject. These are just some of the things we have been discussing in my Photo Skills for Camera Confidence online sessions.

So if you are interested in improving your photography to take beautiful, eye-catching photos, please do get in touch.

Shoutout to Tom @askabaqus who carried on regardless of the unexpectedly foggy weather and ran up and down the hills as many times as I asked, without breaking a sweat! 😆

Whilst I know that things are not all hearts and roses for most people, I’m sending you love and happiness on Valentine’s Day, wherever you are and however you are spending today 💜

Do you celebrate Valentine’s Day in any way? We both gave each other books, wrapped in the same left over from Christmas wrapping paper! Truly romance is not dead! 🤣
