Here’s a piece written by one of my clients, Broadcaster and journalist Georgy Jamieson, on her experience of being a victim of trolling.
Trolling means making a deliberately offensive or provocative online post with the aim of upsetting someone or eliciting an angry response from them. Read Georgy's account of how she managed to move on from some very dark days.
Using a technique I call “thoughtful intention", I guide the shoot to capture authentic moments intentionally. Just take a glimpse at my diverse portfolio. I’ve been privileged to collaborate with many international and influential figures like Bowie, Beyonce, Jon Bon Jovi, Prince, Michael Jackson and many more.
Why aren't businesswomen in their 40s, 50s, 60s, and 70s represented in our media? Would you like to change this by stepping forward or nominating someone close to you with a great business journey story to tell?
Well, now's your opportunity to participate in my 40 OVER 40 Women in Business portrait experience. I'm photographing 40 businesswomen aged 40+ for a special end-of-year gala exhibition.
These unique, one-of-a-kind glossy magazine photo shoots will highlight women who would like to tell their inspiring business stories but would also like to be pampered and made to feel and look gorgeous while starring in your own personal photo shoot.
If you're this kind of woman, ask yourself: when was the last time a top professional photographer, someone who's photographed Supermodels, sports stars, and international film and music stars, photographed you?
When was the last time a top hair and make-up artist made you look gorgeous and glamorous?
Most of you would say it was on your Wedding day, and some would say never. Well, don't you think it's time? You've reached an age when you can have something just for yourself, be self-indulgent, feel a little decadent, and be photographed in the most beautiful gowns. You deserve it!
Once I've filled my quota of 40 businesswomen, I will hold a fantastic gala event to display all 4o businesswomen participants' portraits alongside their inspirational business journey stories. You'll have the opportunity to meet other inspirational women in business and network and engage with like-minded female entrepreneurs from East Anglia.
The cost of participating in this event will be £450, and you'll receive a professional hair and make-up makeover and one complimentary 10 x 8 matted print to take away from your shoot. You will also have the opportunity to purchase more from your set. So, let's empower yourself and other businesswomen and get your collective message out there in your community and even further.
I look forward to hearing from you very soon.
John
Ever wondered what it's like to step into the world of fashion photography?
For some, it might sound like a bit of a challenge, while for others, it's a dream gig—I fell into the latter category for a good chunk of my younger years.
In my twenties, I was side by side with the fashion scene, thanks to my then-partner, who worked as a stylist for big brands, catalogues, and fashion magazines. She was off to different places for shoots, rubbing shoulders with some big names in the fashion game.
Embracing your Authentic Personal Brand….
Your personal brand is your unique identity, encompassing your values, passions, and beliefs. It's a reflection of your true self, both personally and professionally. In a world where authenticity is valued, why not make the effort to showcase the real "you"?
But how do you go about building and expressing your personal brand authentically?
Early this month, I received a call from a local broadcast journalist Georgy Jamieson, who, as a freelance creative needed a series of new images for her personal branding and marketing.
