Camera shy? Advice from a professional portrait photographer

We have it all: education, talent, vision, credentials ... yet we’re paralysed! 

We are not stopped by something on the outside but something on the inside.

As Brighton based female portrait photographer, I’ve worked with over a hundred female entrepreneurs, from web & brand designers, marketing consultants, TEDx speakers & communication coaches, psychology coaches, accountants, travel journalists, authors, artists, energy/life/business coaches, therapists and healers....

...guess what they all have in common?

They don’t like having their picture taken!

 Yet... they all have a clearly defined purpose and vision for their life and business.

A powerful “why” that helps them take courageous steps towards visibility, facing the camera in a safe environment with the right photographer. 

What if I told you . . . having a photo session is much more than just facing the camera?


What if it’s a moment to: 

  • safely express yourself, your brand, your message, your inner beauty (even if you’re camera shy!) 

  • become one with nature, connect with her cycles, seasons, elements, archetypes

As an empath female photographer, I excel at capturing the essence of my clients, micro-expressions, their emotions on camera. This happens because I take the time to truly connect and understand them and their story before the indoor or outdoor portrait photoshoot.

Some people call it: personal brand photography...

I call it…

…a soulful portrait & headshots of YOU for your business, website and social media.

 Together, we will:

  1. Overcome any doubts or fears you might have about being in front of the camera.

  2. Uncover the heart and soul of your business and the essence of who you are.

  3. Co-create an authentic story through engaging portrait images & promo videos for your website and social media.

  4. Show the real you, your authentic story and the beautiful face behind the brand.  

    Let me share with you 7 steps to capture soulful portraits.

Message from a professional portrait photographer

Like many of you, I also get shy in front of the camera, I also face my inner critic and imposter syndrome.

And yes, a UK, Brighton & Hove based professional portrait photographer & videographer is saying it herself! 

I have been hiding behind my camera and beautiful brand portrait images I created for my amazing clients website for far too long time.

But what if I tell you….  no more silencing your gift, talent, passion and vision!

It’s time to use your voice. 

It’s time to lean in.

It’s time to be more VISIBLE.

Yes, there might be others with a similar vision to you BUT no one is like you.

You are unique. 

Your story is unique. 

Own it.

Your work, story, craft, talent, passion....is calling you... it deserves to take up space online.

Stop shrinking.

Start showing up.

Express yourself.

Let’s take slowly and gently the first steps towards visibility: brand portrait photo session for your brand new or re-branded website.  

Me and my camera can’t wait to support you on your visibility journey.
