Read MoreAs a female Portrait Photographer one of the most common questions I am asked by my clients before a lifestyle and branding portrait photo session is: “do I need a makeup artist?” or “how much make up is recommended?” and “if I don't normally wear much make up, should I put some on for the photo shoot?”
My answer is always the same and super simple:…

Do you feel like you have to be posting multiple FB & Instagram post daily?

Recently I have decided to change my approach to social media and online marketing. Here is my new way of operating:
Read More“Togetherness” is such a powerful act. I know together we can make loads of small changes leading to something bigger. With everything I do, as a heart-centred UK female personal branding photographer and videographer, there has to be a deeper purpose!
I am not just another London & Brighton portrait photographer… After 11 years spent working in a big corporation in London, I decided to follow my dream and have my purpose-driven life with a zest of creativity.
Read MoreI have been beating myself up for some time now for not being active on social media: sharing my creative work, branding blog or post stories of my beautiful clients like others....
I simply don't feel like doing any of that at the moment!
I feel sort of under "societal pressure" as an international creative purpose driven female photographer and videographer (based in sunny Brighton, London,Sussex, UK), freelancer, business owner, artist, light worker (ex-finance person) to be visible even more!
Read MoreI spent most of my life feeling “not good enough” ... Can you relate?
This feeling can manifest in different way…. “self-destruction” but in my case always was opposite pushing my boundaries and working even harder to prove myself my worth through achievements.
I spent the last ten years of my life working in the corporate world before following my passions as an International Personal Brand Portrait Photographer & Videographer, event organiser and mentor based in lovely Brighton & London.
Read MoreEverything starts with the vision! It's that time again to start envisioning. I pause. I go inwards. I reflect. I envision.
I dedicate my time and energy to reflect and envision year ahead of me, at the personal and professional level, as a Female Personal Brand Portrait Photographer and Videographer based in UK, Sussex, London & Brighton.
Read MoreAs a photographer, I am always looking fore the best light for my outdoor, inspired by nature portrait photo session with inspiring and creative women.
This “golden hour” has been my obsession lately, when the sun is quite low in the sky and you can feel the last touches of its warmth on your skin.
And just a few minutes before the sunset, the sky is full of warm shades of orange, dancing with fiery red and intense pink. By catching the perfect moment, we can turn this magical view into a piece of art, where your beauty is fully supported by delicious, soft and flattering light.

Read MoreYay, location, Location, LOCATION!
One of my favourite aspects of being a professional portrait photographer is the chance to leave the inside of four walls behind…
and explore…
Choosing those, rather than yet another place you could probably expect all the local photographers shoot at, makes the photos truly stand out! It is all driven by the fact that YOU are so unique – the location of the photo session should reflect YOU, be just like you, just right, matching your personality, extract the essence of your passion and business purpose.
Read MoreMe, my camera, my journal and pen! That’s what I packed for the personal branding film and photography project with Agatha, a professional writer and a writing retreat organiser.
But let’s be honest!
I was not only excited to capture the essence and the atmosphere of her beautiful seven day women writing retreat BUT mostly excited to take part in the retreat myself.
Why?
Because for many years, writing, blogging and journaling have been out of my comfort zone. I never truly enjoyed the process. I did not know where to start and how to express myself freely.
I have never been able to find a time for writing all day long without feeling guilty…
