I get asked these questions all.the.time. About my bespoke brand shoots aka the SHOW UP Shoots.

So I thought I'll make this FAQ carousel for you, in case you were wondering what really happens before, during and after a shoot.

You can find out about how I support you in choosing the perfect location, how I can help you decide your outfits and what's exactly included in the shoot itself.

Any more questions, just ask x

I used to think being consistent with content meant being more disciplined.

Posting more.
Planning better.
Trying harder.

But I don’t think that’s the problem.

Most of us already want to be consistent.

We want to talk about our businesses.
We want people to know what we do.
We want to stay visible.

Then Monday morning arrives.

Clients need you. Emails need answering. Meetings run over. The school run happens. And the post you were definitely going to write gets pushed to tomorrow.

And then tomorrow becomes next week.

There’s a James Clear quote I love:
“You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems.”

And I think that applies perfectly to content.

If showing up relies on you having enough time, remembering to do it AND feeling inspired enough to think of something interesting to say…
…it’s always going to be inconsistent.

You need a system.

Not a system that tells you to post three times a day, batch 47 Reels on a Sunday or be on every platform.

A simple system that works with your business and your life.

One that helps you know what you want to say, what you want to be known for, where you’re going to show up and what you're actually going to create.

And that’s the HOW we’re getting into on Wednesday.

In my free 90 Days to Show Up workshop, we’re going to stop winging it and actually plan the final 90 days of the year together.

You’ll leave with clarity, a system and your own 90-day content calendar.

Wednesday 30 September · 12pm · 90 minutes · FREE

And yes, there’ll be a replay if you can’t make it live.

Comment 90 DAYS and I’ll send you the link.

I'll be honest, my motivation hasn't been very high recently and I've been struggling to post on my socials.

So I was looking for inspiration.

I wanted to surround myself with positive and supportive women... So just 12hrs before the event, I booked to attend the co-working & connection event with W I L D & W I L D and that's exactly what I found.

My head is buzzing with ideas on how I can grow my business and how I can help more women show up with confidence and consistency.

If you've been struggling to show up online once again after a long break away from your socials, then get out of your phone, go to events, meet people, talk to complete strangers and the ideas will start flowing back again

Thank you for having me and the lovely big hug ❤️

Her business doubled after our first brand shoot... and these are the images from shoot number two.

When Sorrel first came to me, she wanted her brand to feel more premium, more luxurious and more aligned with the incredible travel experiences she creates.

We weren't just taking pretty photos.

We were changing perception.

Since our first shoot, her business has grown dramatically. She told me the images played a huge part in helping her attract the kind of clients she wanted and position herself as the luxury travel expert she is.

That made this second shoot even more special.

And there's another first...

This was the very first brand shoot in my new home studio space. I absolutely loved creating these images here and I can't wait to welcome more incredible business owners through the doors over the coming months.

If you've been thinking, "I'll sort my branding after summer," consider this your sign.

Drop me a message when you're back from your holidays and let's start creating a brand that looks as good as the business you've built.

Yesterday I stood in front of a room full of people and did something that felt incredibly uncomfortable.

I didn't introduce myself by talking about my business.

I shared a story.

I took everyone back to being 8 years old, being bullied at school, feeling different because of my skin colour, and how those experiences led me to hate being in photos for years.

It felt vulnerable.

But if I ask my clients to step in front of the camera and show up as themselves, I have to be willing to do the same.

Afterwards, so many people came over to talk to me.

Not about photography.
Not about branding.
Not about my services.

They wanted to talk about the story.

They said they felt like they knew me. They understood why I do what I do. They connected with me on a human level.

And that's the thing about storytelling...

People might forget your job title.
They might forget exactly what you said.

But they'll remember how you made them feel.

So if you've been wondering what to post this week, don't overthink it.

Share a story.

The one about why you started your business.
The challenge that changed you.
The client you'll never forget.
The moment everything clicked.

Because your story isn't what makes you look vulnerable.

It's what makes you relatable. ❤️

👇 I'd love to know... what's one story you've never shared that your audience would benefit from hearing?

Second shoot for Sorrel and first one in my brand new home!!! 🎉🎉🎉

Sorrel's business has skyrocketed and she believes the brand shoot she did with me two years ago played a huge role in her success!

Being visible is not about vanity.. There's a significant ROI for a business and brand photography can contribute towards more enquiries, more clients and more profit!

If you're serious about taking your business to the next level, I'm just a message away!
