Yes, that’s right, we’re back for another social media video workshop! I’m delighted to be co-hosting another one of these fun sessions with Rebecca | Insta Training, Content & Strategy | Introverts In Biz on Weds 4th Nov.

It’s always great meeting new local businesses from all over West Berkshire and beyond, helping them to start using social media better. Whether it’s thinking of ideas or worrying about what kit you need to start filming, we’ve got you covered.

We’ll be talking: how to get started working with video…

…giving some top tips on social media strategy for those that don’t know where to start and are worried about putting themselves out there…

…and if we’re super lucky our mascot Benji may even join us! And we all know he’s the real reason people come to see us lol. (Keep swiping though, you’re nearly at the end now…)

So sign up using the link in our bio and let’s take the plunge together on levelling-up your business’ social media with video. There’s even a follow-up course on the 18th Nov for when you’re ready to actually start filming. Plus: sign up for both courses and get a DISCOUNT 🤩. And who doesn’t love a bargain like that?!

Is this the cutest family ever?!

Come behind the scenes with me and take a sneaky peak at a fun-filled family portrait shoot with Wild Child Photography recently. Filmed on site at the family’s beautiful home, there was a lot of laughing and love all afternoon.

Follow Wild Child Photography to see the finished photos in all their heart-melting glory when they’re ready. And if you’ve got an event coming up that you want filmed then get in touch and let’s make it happen!

Need a PD? Or videographer? Got some social content that needs filming? You never know where you’ll end up when you make programmes and content for a living but it’s always fun. And it’s extra special when you get to work with legends like these! I’ve got some availability over the next few weeks so drop me a message if you need something filmed and want it to be awesome.

Your iPhone can do so much more than you think… here’s another simple tip you’ll actually use!

⸻

Hidden iPhone features no.5 – Stop Sending Blurry Photos on WhatsApp

Did you know WhatsApp can send your photos in HD? If you don’t switch this on, your pictures are often compressed before they’re sent.

Here’s how to fix it:

1. Select the photo you want to send in WhatsApp
2. Tap the HD button on the top right of the photo screen
3. Tap Send and enjoy sending a much sharper image!

It’s a tiny change that makes a huge difference, especially if you’re sharing family photos, holiday snaps or pictures for work.

Save this so you don’t forget it, and send it to that one friend or family member who always complains that WhatsApp ruins their photos! 😂

Follow for more simple iPhone tips and let me know in the comments… did you know WhatsApp could do this?

And if there’s an iPhone feature you’ve always wondered about, drop it in the comments below—it might be my next tip! 🙂

The best camera is the one you’ve got with you… so here’s another simple iPhone tip to help you get even more from it

⸻

iPhone Tip no.4 – Size Matters So Fill the Screen!

Ever wondered why your photos don’t fill the whole screen on FB, Instagram or TikTok? Chances are you’re using the wrong aspect ratio.

Here’s how to fix it:

1. Open your Camera app
2. Tap the row of dots in the top right corner
3. Tap the Aspect Ratio button in the bottom right corner
4. Select 16:9
5. Now your photos will make much better use of the screen, giving your content a more polished look

It’s a tiny change that can make a big difference, especially if you love sharing photos and videos online or with friends and family.

Save this so you don’t forget it, and send it to that friend who’s always posting videos with black bars or cropped-off footage! 😂
