“I needed photos for my new website and business venture. I was looking for someone who could take some indoor and some outdoor photos – a mixture of headshots and lifestyle brand story shots. The look and feel of your brand and website seemed a natural fit to my own brand and values. The service you offered as a body confidence coach tied in nicely with your photography offering and my own life-coach venture. I am not used to focusing on me. It doesn’t feel or come very naturally, and so I was worried because my business is as a Life coach specialising in mid-life authenticity – and I needed to be comfortable with that.

My shoot experience was calm, creative and well-organised. I feel that you worked to get every shot I had in mind, as well as bring your own ideas. I was worried before the shoot, but I didn’t need to be at all! Thank you so much. I think the dual-location of river and my home worked well for what I needed and that you really worked to accommodate my requirements. Annabelle was so nice, and I was really thrilled with the hair and make-up, which she managed to get really natural.

I think my images were just what I had in mind with regard to location, and I feel so relieved and pleased to have some great landscape ones for my website! My favourite is the portrait one of me with the purple flower behind and closely followed by the one of me in the mirror at home and me with my cat! Thank you for being so nice to work with and taking a natural interest in what I needed to achieve!”
