New Site + Workshop announced

I'm seriously SO HAPPY to share some great news with you - my new portfolio is up. After what feels like two years or more of wanting to update my website, I finally managed to get it up. I went with Squarespace in the end (yes, I'd recommend them!), and am working on integrating the blog into the new site soon as well. For now there are still a few things to change, but I decided to just go live with it now.

Also, there's a complete new workshop coming up in July - it will be a two day workshop focusing on teaching you all the photography basics from scratch in a way that's easy to understand. I want you to be able to get to know your camera and improve your photos even if you're a beginner. I'll also teach you how to create great images that work well on social media, and that can get you the most out of your online marketing. Images play such an important role in marketing, and especially with so many blogs around you want to stand out through the content you create and the photos you put up on your blog. They represent your brand after all.
The two days will be filled with fun, meeting new people, and creating amazing content for your blog or website that you can use straight away.
If you want to find out more head over to the site and book your spot. I'd love to meet you, and teach you everything I know.

The Photo Brunch Covent Garden / 02


Last Saturday I held my second Photo Brunch workshop in Covent Garden (click here to read about the first one in Shoreditch). It was loads of fun, I really enjoy being around a group of like-minded people which all share an interest in photography, and at the same time work in different creative areas.
We (Emma - who was there last time, Karen, another Karen, and Alexandra) had a chance to chat over brunch when we first met at Notes, before we headed out into Covent Garden. It was great having a variety of people come along, all at different stages in their photography. I shared some advice on composition with Emma, and helped Karen out with her camera settings.
We came past the greatest, probably most colourful and fun backyard in Covent Garden - Neal’s Yard (see below). I remember being there once before, but this time I actually got to take it all in. When you’re with a camera you really notice all the details. I think I could have photographed that space forever. It felt like so much positive energy on a rainy day. Definitely go when you’re in London.
After a while the rain and wind came back, and we decided to warm up in another coffee shop. It was lovely to sit and chat, and getting to know each other better.
Thank you guys so much for coming along, you made it heaps of fun! :)

If you want to get practical, customised help to improve your photos as well, let me know (via email, Twitter, or in the comments), and I will find a date that works for everyone.
