Wimbledon on film 2026!

What a surprise that after over 10 summers in London, I finally made it to Wimbledon!! I used to watch this as a kid with my family , back when Boris Becker, Andre Agassi, Steffi Graf, and all the other 90s tennis stars played. Sitting there in person, I experienced the other side of Wimbledon that isn’t tennis: the style. Players wear white only - and many visitors join in. The sun hats. The elaborate uniforms of the people working there. Everyone wearing attire for a fancy garden party. Signature dark green everywhere (my favourite colour, and brand colour) . An adventure in many ways and also for the eye. Hope to be back again next year!

Constantly putting out fires in your business? 🔥
In my latest conversation with fractional operations specialist Josie Lipman, we unpacked why feeling overwhelmed usually isn’t about having „no time“—it’s about having no process.
When your internal operations run smoothly and clearly, your outward presence shines that much brighter.
💡 Quick takeaway 1: Stop writing „Hi all“ in your team emails! If you’re constantly waiting on responses, address one specific person, define who is accountable, and set a clear timeframe. Specificity beats ambiguity every time.
💡 Quick takeaway 2: Tired of meetings spiraling off-topic? Use this simple phrase next time: „I’ll make a note of this for later, but for now, let’s get back on topic.“ It keeps the momentum going and respects everyone’s time.
💡 Quick takeaway: 3: Always waiting for approvals? Instead of drowning in endless email threads, schedule a dedicated 15-minute approval window with decision-makers every day or week. Faster sign-offs, zero inbox clutter.

Lovely location for a lovely photo session in beautiful evening light: Hammersmith Riverside! I always research my photo locations on site before a shoot if possible. Because I haven’t been to Hammersmith Riverside in West London before I went there twice last week: once for scouting photo spots and another day for photo sessions - it was definitely worth it!

Southend on the hottest day in June on film 🎞️

Clearly not a seaside expert I thought I could take a quick swim but once I arrived at the beach there the tide was in and you could walk for over half an hour into the sea without the water even reaching your knees. It was a very unique and beautiful walk though.

Also, a massive shoutout to my trusted film lab, Film Processing lab 🎞️ Whenever I’ve had to use other labs while away from London for urgent jobs, the scans just haven’t hit the same. I’ve learned my lesson—now I happily wait until I’m back in town to hand over my rolls. The consistency and quality are always worth the wait!

Every project we accept and every job we say yes to is a vote for the kind of world we want to live in. As business owners, we have that influence —so what are we choosing to build?

Lately, I’ve started asking myself: What am I actually helping to make visible? Which businesses am I helping to succeed?

Visual storytelling holds real power. It shapes what people trust, what feels desirable. Because of that, who I give my creative energy, time, and skills to matters.

I want to do work that brings life, healing, protection, inspiration, and beauty into the world.

In his book Garden City, John Mark Comer writes:

“…Is it something that God smiles on? After all, his opinion of your work matters more than everybody else’s... Some work brings life and healing and hope and beauty to the world, while other kinds of work bring violence and theft and poverty and chaos to it. The only work that can be a vocation or calling from God is work that harmonizes with Jesus’ vision of the kingdom of God. Does it help humanity? Will it make the world a better place?”

The reality is that some businesses build their profit on the harm of people, animals, or nature. Others offer products and services that are actively life-giving to their customers, their teams, and the environment. The latter are the ones I want to support with my work.

As business owners, we have the power to make that choice.

I’ve shared the full story, the moments that connected these dots for me, and the struggle of choosing integrity over comfort on the blog.

“Networking is more about farming than it is about hunting.” - Ivan Misner

Let’s be honest: genuine connection always demands effort. In-person meetups take energy - but they build roots that a Zoom call simply can’t match.

Met up with videographer Ben Hole Ben Hole , print manager Patrick Barr .pb , and fashion photographer Graham Cann Graham Cann (from left to right) the other day in Grahams impressive photo studio The Space in Southend/ Leigh-on-Sea.

The real challenge? Watering those roots/maintaining connections over time.

True connections are built in person, but they can be maintained online when the next in-person touchpoint isn`t just around the corner.

In my latest blog post, I share how to bridge these two worlds – social media and in-person connectivity.

By using a curated, strategic pool of branding images, you can show up consistently in the digital space with zero friction. No overthinking, no creative block, but instead a simple system that makes staying memorable a total no-brainer.

Head to the link in my bio to discover how to make your networking simple and effective so that it just becomes a natural, unforced way to tell the story you are already living.

Steffen Burgemeister is a photographer who has carried on the photo studio of his dad in Pfullingen in South Germany, back when photos were still taken on film and developed in darkrooms. Photography has been running in his family: he is a photographer in the fourth generation — his great-grandfather was a photographer already — and his studio has many traces of time. To me there is something wonderful about a passion that travels through a family like that, from heart to heart, from eye to eye. I can see these traces of heritage and time in my own family too. I have far more childhood photos of myself than most people, thanks to my dad, who had his Leica on him on any suitable occasion. And I know of his dad — my grandfather, whom I never met — that he was the same. He also painted when he was travelling. So he must have had the same urge inside himself to document time and places that I feel. Maybe you have someone like that in your family too — someone whose joy found its way to you. I’d love to know who that was for you.

Not every portrait is great to win new clients!
The question is: Does it tell your unique story?

Environmental Portraits do. As the name says: They are portraits of people in their environment.

As a lifestyle photographer splitting my time between London and Metzingen, I love bringing context into a portrait. Because the room isn’t just a background, it’s a co-author of your story.
I’ve been curating a series of portraits to prove this exact point—capturing the unique energy of local spaces:
