I know I’ve been quiet lately but I’m on full time mum mode during the summer holidays while also working on a few upcoming photo sessions. Nevertheless, I had to make some extra time to share some great shots from this fabulous 40th birthday party 🥳 Events are so fun to photograph, and capturing these moments is a great way to keep the joy, the atmosphere and the celebrations! And it’s always a challenge and delight for me as a photographer!

Can we all agree that getting a new Google review is basically the small business equivalent of winning the lottery? 😂⭐

Every kind review gives me a little happy dance moment (yes, they do happen!) and helps other lovely people find my business too.

So, to everyone who’s taken a couple of minutes to leave me a review… THANK YOU! You’re absolute legends, and I appreciate every single one of you. 💛✨

Love,
Millie

I keep posting about the benefits of having a professional brand photoshoot that tells your business story but it’s best if I just show you some real life examples from my past sessions. Remember, it’s not all about Instagram. And it’s not about creating too polished photos that doesn’t speak “you”. I don’t work with trained models, I photograph real people who put their soul into building their business. Your brand images can complement a cohesive style across different platforms and make you memorable and consistent. And you want that so your people can easily find you, remember you and work with you.

Summer parties are the highlight of the season! And I love being a part of them, documenting the fun, the laughter, the chats. I love seeing people through the lens - when they are unaware of the camera, their most candid smiles shine and the joy is real. And we end up with a gallery full of great photos.

(Oh yes, and you don’t have to spend your event holding on to your phone to snap a photo while also welcoming guests, ensuring food is on time, keeping track of intolerances, entertainment and kids playing with the decor. When your party planning plate is full, don’t add photos on it - call a professional multi plate spinner with a camera to capture your memories.)

Here are some of my favourite shots from a recent party in The Artichoke On The Green Absolutely love the vibes x

Long post alert! But please stay with me. I am genuinely interested how you feel about this.

Have you ever been told as a child not to show off, be loud or draw attention to yourself? Well, I have and I imagine a lot of women like me - mums, business owners, millennials - have heard something along those lines. And we grew up believing “attention-seeking” is to be avoided.

And then we grew up in a world where seeking attention quite literally means being seen! As a business owner, visibility isn’t showing off—it’s part of the job.

But here’s the truth…

Your dream clients can’t work with you if they don’t know you exist. You need to seek their attention. Showing up isn’t about ego or vanity. It’s about connection.

And you can’t build a connection by hiding behind your logo. The people who are looking for you want to see the face behind the brand, feel your energy, and trust the person they’re choosing to work with.

I am often guilty of this myself. I feel comfortable directing women in front of the lens and documenting their stories but I cringe when I need to step up and show my face. It’s deeply personal yet so many of us feel the same. And this is usually the main reason why many talented women in business avoid booking a brand photoshoot. Because of the little voice in our heads still whispering that attention seeking is not attractive. And I want to shut this up for you!

As your brand photographer, my job is to help you see a different version of yourself. Not a polished photoshopped image but the passionate, dedicated and hardworking person behind the business you are creating. You don’t see this in yourself but I do. I can help you feel comfortable enough to be yourself, capture the colours, personality and vibe that make your brand unique, and create images that give you the confidence to show up consistently.

✨ Comment “Me, too” if you’ve ever felt anxious about being seen in your own business. I promise you’re not the only one—and it doesn’t have to stay this way.
