We don't question whether a tradie needs good tools.

We don't question whether a photographer needs a camera.

We don't question whether a café needs decent coffee.

But somehow, business owners convince themselves that their own face doesn't need any investment. Your headshot should appear on everywhere online because it’s communicating who you are. How else will prospective clients know whether they can trust you or not? Headshot day: one small investment, lots of marketing muscle to use it.

Your Headshot isn't a selfie. It's part of your business equipment. 🛠️

Headshot Day is this Wednesday, 9th September. Book your spot: https://scribblygumphotography.com.au/wollongong-headshot-day/

There’s always a reason to leave it for another day.

Work is busy. Life is busy. Maybe you’ll feel more ready next month. And somehow that headshot stays on the list 😅

Sometimes it’s easier just to give yourself a date and get it done.

The next Headshot Day is September 9. Maybe this is the nudge you've been waiting for 😉

Book now online, link is in my bio.

👋 I’m Rachel and I'm stoked that you're here with me. If you've been here for a while, you'll already know that I'm a photographer and a mum of three boys.

What you might not know is that before going all in on my photography business, I spent 15 years working in rehabilitation as an Exercise Physiologist. Some of the things I would do on a daily basis included helping people learn how to walk after surgery, helping people get strong so they could get back home, and I also facilitated training of staff to help reduce the chance of injuries for staff and patients alike. It is this experience that is the difference between a photographer who takes a photo of a person vs how I link all the components and create a photo that you feel great about.

It's the little things that make someone look and feel like the best version of who they truly are. The clenched shoulder? The rotated foot? The smiling mouth but not the eyes? I see it all.

And that’s particularly important when it comes to headshots. The difference is having someone behind the camera who knows how to bring out the version of you that you can feel proud of.

Showing up online is hard enough without having a photo of yourself that you don't love.

If I was an influencer, would I call my rehab background my secret sauce? 🤣

I'm around today for chats, if you are wondering if Headshot Day is the right fit for you, or any other questions, send me a DM and let's have a chat.

We have made it to the end of another Book Week! What I love most about it is that it gives kids permission to step into their imaginations.

They get to be brave. Clever. Adventurous. Or completely ridiculous. They put on a costume and suddenly they get to imagine being that character.

As adults, we don't often give ourselves that same permission.

Headshots and Book Week are different, because with headshots, you are still you, not pretending to become someone else. And they are the same, because we can use our imagination to show up with the traits of the person/ character we want to become.

If the confidence in front of the camera isn't quite there yet, let's play pretend to get us there because it's time to stop putting off your headshots.

The next Headshot Day is Wednesday 9 September at the Wollongong Botanic Gardens. See you there, Spiderman? 🕸

What did your kids dress up as for Book Week? (and my DMs are open for photos! 😍)

Let’s learn in person, in nature, together.

The next Camera Collective starts soon. It's going to be held on Wednesday mornings. I'll help you navigate your way around a camera. It's an 9 week workshop, in a supportive and inclusive environment.

It's more than a beginner camera class, this is your invitation to play, create & connect with like minded people.

Learn how to use your camera, but more importantly, let's connect and enjoy some time together. You're welcome just as you are.

Know someone who might be interested? Be sure to send this to them.

NDIS (plan dependent), gender diverse + neurodiverse humans are welcome.

Send an enquiry form to start.

I spent two days at , listening to founders, mums, storytellers and business owners share their work and ideas.

It went deeper than supercharged hacks, skyrocketing marketing with templates and authenticity building blocks. It was raw and real and so refreshing.

I left with the reminder that creativity isn’t frivolous, and connection is paramount. Success is capacity and health, alongside and not behind the usual business metrics.

Thank you and .business, your energy, compassion and purpose is incredible.
