✨️ CALENDAR UPDATE ✨️

I have been a bit quiet, I got hit with a bug of some sort that took away my voice (litterally) and all my energy.

Call me Ariel. 🧜‍♀️ ( I am literally the little mermaid, we even have the same hair)

It's sort of back but croaky, but I am feeling a bit better today.

Sessions with my calendar girls start this Saturday 🎉 and I am so EXCITED.

Everything is pretty much ready in studio!

WHO wants to pre- order their calendars????

You can do that here 👇

Oh my! Three sleeps to go to the opening of my studio!

Where have those last three weeks gone?

I want to talk about studio portraits.

We may not be doing your session in cool venue with a snazzy wine bar in the background or in a suave posh coffee shop or on floor 59 of a high rise office with Birminghams skyline in the background.

All of which are fabulous for branding sessions, of course they are!

But don't let that put you off a studio session.

There is so much we can create in studio to suit you, your brand and your personality.

From plain colour backdrops, colour with lighting, posing in chairs, stools, or standing. We can also create sets to suit you.

An office? Hey presto I can do that, a study, I can do that...... let's make your vision a reality.

You certainly don't have to have a white background and just a "headshot" (This is portraits and fizz dahhhling not just a headshot session)

Be bold, be brave, be you! Let's have fun!

There are just a couple of afternoon slots available now on my "Portraits and Fizz" day on Friday and I would absolutely love to photograph you!

I 100% promise we'll have fun. And a perfect opportunity to get to know each other and a taste of working together if you're considering booking a branding session or even a bo***ir session later down the line.

So what takes your fancy?

Something bright and colourful, a cool brick wall or a bright colour. Or would you choose white or a more dramatic black?

It's your session, let's create together!

What would you choose?

Ps - Link to book a session for Friday below 👇

As you all know I have taken the "leap" and moved studio and its ready (apart from a couple of finishing touches) for you to see on 23rd February!

If you've missed it, I'm holding a little celebration of fizz on arrival and a portrait session on 23rd February and you can find out about it here 👇

https://www.sarahhaywoodphoto.com/3-is-the-magic-number.html

I would love you to join me! And if you just want to pop in on the 23rd for a nosey and a glsss of fizz, pop me a DM and we can arrange that!

I am going to be sharing a little progress video later this week of the move, a little sneak peak if you will, of my new space!

In the meantime I thought I'd share with you a photo of my old studio......

Which has served me wonderfully since August 2021.

Happy Hump Day!

Let's face it, folks, the selfie game is getting fierce. Every Tom, Dick, and Harriet is out there with their pouts and strategically placed phone angles.

But fear not, weary social media warriors, there's a secret weapon in the fight for online dominance....... professional portraits!

Yes, I know, the mere mention of "professional portraits" might conjure up images of stiff smiles, awkward poses, and enough hairspray to hold a small yacht afloat. But hear me out! Because professional portraits are like adulting's answer to superhero costumes. Here's why:

1. Your photographer is there to guide you, direct you and make sure you have fun during your session as well as some fabulous photographs.

2. Banish the "Filter" curse: Let's be honest, those filters are fun for about five minutes. But then you start looking like a melted wax figure with questionable skin texture. Professional portraits? They embrace your natural beauty. You'll be radiating that "I woke up like this" glow.

3. Let's face it, if your current LinkedIn profile pic screams "I haven't updated this since dial-up was cool." A professional headshot is your chance to project a "competent professional who definitely knows how to use Zoom."

So, ditch the selfie pout and embrace the power of the professional portrait. It's time to level up your online presence and show the world the amazing, non-blurry, no filters YOU!

P.S. Feeling camera shy? Don't worry, even the most awkward of us can be transformed. Just remember, I am here to guide you, direct you and ensure you have a super fun time! Lets unleash your best self to the world!
Remember, your profile pic is your digital handshake. Make it a firm, confident one that says, "I'm awesome!"

P.P. S. My new studio is open and ready to welcome you on 23rd February for my AMAZING New Studio Launch...... link below to have a little looksee!!!
ONLY 6 spaces LEFT.............
