✨ The Photo Co Panel + Networking Night ✨

We’re so excited to share something new for our community!
On Friday 17th October we’re hosting an evening of real talk, industry insight, and connection in Hamilton.

We’ve lined up a marketing strategist + three experienced photographers to sit down and share their journeys, challenges, and strategies for building sustainable, full-time, and businesses that fit their lifestyles.

All of the profits from this event (excluding costs to run the event) will be going to our fellow photographer Sam Donaldson and her family to help support them during Hugo's fight against Cancer.

Here’s what you can expect:
📸 Honest conversations about what’s working in the industry right now
🎤 A panel discussion + open Q&A
🤝 Networking with other photographers over drinks + light snacks

The details:

📍 Gilmour Studios, 169 London Street, Hamilton Central
⏰ 6:00pm – 9:00pm
🎟️ Tickets $50 per person
👉 Tickets are limited, so grab yours here: link in bio

We’d love to see as many of you there as possible, come connect, learn, and leave inspired with new ideas and new industry friends!

Also, if you'd like to support Sam & Aaron and their family directly or aren't able to attend on the night, there is a Givealittle Page here: https://givealittle.co.nz/cause/love-and-support-for-the-donaldsons

GUYYYYYYYSSSSS! This workshop wasn’t supposed to happen til 2024 but I couldn’t help myself. Because - How freaking amazing is the floral inspiration?!?

Two Days of posing, shooting and editing, choose to come to one day or to both!

Day one is all about posing couples, brides, grooms and individuals, trouble shooting poses and sculpting with light. Finishing up with a gorgeous bridal shoot in the afternoon in the studio with our stunning floral installation as the backdrop.

Day two is another epic shoot, this time with a fashion model. After lunch I’ll share my editing and retouching secrets for weddings and my portraits and then we will edit our images from the shoots together!

Early bird pricing ends on the 31st of July with a 50% deposit required to secure your spot!

Your next three easy blog ideas!

1. The Prep Guide, no matter what genre you shoot, a super easy blog idea is a simple prep guide. If you're short on time, you don't have to include heaps of stuff, just some key pointers. You can always add more to it later!

2. Your Fav Vendor list. Whether you shoot families or weddings or even headshots, we work with vendors. List three to five of your favourites. These could be a dress hire companies, makeup artists, venues, locations to shoot even!

3. Your Favourite Print Options! What better way to get your clients excited about printing their images than to gush about them on your blog! Let them know your favs, keep it short, easy to absorb and show those examples! Pro tip - if you don't have product photos yet, jump onto sites like creative market, you can buy mock up interiors for wall art or even get in touch with your print provider, they probably have some sample stock images you can use too!
