How I Work (MY PROCESS)

I help brands tell their story through professional photography. From our first conversation to delivering polished images, my process is designed to be clear, simple, and collaborative, making it easy for you to get the visuals your business deserves.

How I Make the Process Easy

  • Flexible scheduling

  • Portable studio setup

  • Creative lighting techniques (natural, flash, or studio)

  • Style and props planning

  • Lifestyle sessions capturing real action

  • Optional location scouting

1.

Initial Consultation & Creative Planning

We’ll meet in person, over the phone, or via Zoom to discuss your brand, goals, and how photography can help. I’ll share my process, answer your questions, and brainstorm ideas to plan a photoshoot that captures your brand’s unique story. For subscription clients, we also schedule monthly check-ins to keep visuals fresh and on-brand.

4.

Location Scouting (Optional)

If your chosen location isn’t quite right for a brand or lifestyle shoot, I can help find alternatives that match your vision. Some locations may have hire fees, which I’ll clearly outline upfront so there are no surprises.

2.

Easy Booking & Scheduling

Once we’ve agreed on a date and time, I’ll send an online contract and deposit invoice. Once your deposit is received, your session is officially booked, and I’ll start planning every detail to ensure a smooth, enjoyable shoot.

5.

Professional Post-Production Editing

After the shoot, I carefully select, edit, and retouch your images to ensure high-quality results:

  • High-resolution and web-ready files

  • Clear usage rights

  • Private online gallery for selection and downloads

  • Large files via WeTransfer if needed

3.

Mood Boards & Shot Planning

Before the shoot, I’ll create a custom mood board that reflects your style and brand. This visual guide helps align the team’s vision, sets the atmosphere, and highlights key storytelling elements. For subscription clients, I create fresh mood boards for each session, so every shoot is on-brand, creative, and engaging.

Company Values

Collaboration

I prioritise understanding your brand’s core values and maintaining open, honest communication. I’ll listen carefully to ensure your vision is captured while also applying my expertise to independently create polished, professional imagery. Together, we’ll produce photos that truly represent your brand and resonate with your audience.

Creative Thinking

Every brand is unique. I tailor concepts and provide visual inspiration to craft innovative and impactful images. Staying up-to-date with photography trends and techniques ensures your visuals are always striking, effective, and memorable.

Progression

I actively support businesses beyond photography—through social media engagement, blog content, event participation, and charitable initiatives. I continually develop my skills and share insights with my clients to help grow their brands. Follow me on social media or subscribe to my newsletter to stay inspired and informed.
