Time to find out about MY story....
My prime purpose as a Personal Branding Photographer, is to provide a clear visual representation
of YOU.... & your business.
I have been in your shoes.
To have a dream. To start your own business.
37 years of living, learning, and hard work has lead me to my own Personal Branding Photography business:
-A business that includes the perfect cocktail:
-
Meeting passionate, diverse, unique individuals & organisations.
-
Travelling near and far, working in wonderful locations.
-
Offering a different, custom made experience each time.
I am a visual storyteller, breathing life into moments frozen in time.
If you want the full story....
​​​I have always loved capturing magic moments.
​
I am the friend or family member who was rarely seen in photos - as I'd usually be the one taking them.
The artist, visionary (and perfectionist) in me I used to be happier that way.
​
When I needed to have my face more present for my business I learned how to become confident on the other side of the lens. After all, people connect with people.
​​
​​​​
I have always sought adventure and travel as much as possible.
I've travelled to 38 countries.. most of those solo! I once did an around the world trip over 8 months.
I've ticked off a lot from the bucket list but for every one I tick, another gets added onto the list.
​
If I HAD to choose my top 3 countries: USA, Italy, New Zealand ....but please don't make me choose!
So it's safe to say I'm always open to a location shoot.
​
​​​
I found my passion by meeting business owners who had followed their dreams...​
I spent most of my 20s trying to find my purpose - and I did that by seeking inspiration from business owners.
​
People who chose their passion.
​
My true passion had been to take photos.
​
I spent years investing in and learning as many aspects of professional photography as I could.
-Something that will never end.
​
I lit up by talking to business owners who lit up talking about what they do..
​
This is how I found who I wanted to work with.
​
Combining my listening, research, creative and photography skills.
​
I capture the face, story and heart behind businesses.
​
​
What do I enjoy? What am I good at? How can that help others?
- Photography is my art -
​
How to manually use a camera and all of its settings
-don't be fooled, cameras are good but it's knowing how to use it that is the skill:
All within a split second, telling your camera exactly what to do.
There's as much to know about 'in camera' as there is about 'post processing'.
Not to mention colour theory, light / shadow, composition, reflections, white balance, exposure, timing - and the list goes on...
​
This opened my eyes to a whole new world. I'd no idea how hard it would be,
but always knew it would be worth it.
Photography is the perfect mix of art meeting science and technology.
I love the opportunities it brings, the creativity it allows, the priceless results it produces.
There's also a wonderful bonus that there is always something new to learn.
​
​
So believe me when I say, I understand passion.
I understand HOW to capture YOUR passion.
Let’s work together....
Get in touch so that I can capture the face, heart and story behind your business!
