25.01.2022 I am overly excited for the re-launch of this amazing business. I have so much love and gratitude for Thea trusting me with the styling and imagery of @eatby_design. There is so much passion and love empowerment behind this product. Tap to head on over and follow this business

25.01.2022 No one supports you, like a social media friend youve never met. Theres been a lot, like a real lot of posts about supporting businesses. Given what our state Victoria is currently experiencing its 100% valid. The one thing that has stood through all this is COMMUNITY. Its the cheer squad of social media mates that show you support, theyre simply the best kind of people! But for the large majority of consumers on social media that are seeing support small or ...support local it can be overwhelming as to how they can support, other than purchasing and if you cant buy for financial reasons then what Im going to break this down so that you can too have that amazing feeling of supporting a virtual friend. 1.Do a quick #hashtag search of your local town or suburb. 2.Comment on a post, ask a question, say hi, say well done 3.Share a post (it could be a promotion they are running, a quote you like or a just because) 4.Tag a mate in a post that they might like to see.. So many posts go unseen by your own friends. 5. That little bookmark thing on the right is great as it saves that post so you can come back and read it again or later, that also helps a business. And when you do all this know that you are an absolute legend of a person for supporting business. Every time you comment, share and tag you are sending out a little advertisement for that business to your friends and your followers. Even though you may not buy from them right now, you are opening it up to someone who might and that is how you can support local businesses now. Now, hit that share button and pop this in your stories to spread the #supportsmallbusiness goodness and let your mates know how they can support a social media friend. Virtual Hugs are the simply the best kind (especially when youre not even allowed to see or hug in our state) See more

25.01.2022 Recent collab with Quality Hotel Wangaratta Gateway and Atrium Restaurant. New chef, amazing food, superb vibes.

25.01.2022 Office days. I shared late last week about working from home. I shared about kids, about trying to get things done. About having a work space at home and wanting to have something away from home just so I can get away from the space. With iso life I have had many dms about people feeling my view point, the honeymoon period is over, work is always around you and some yearn for the escape...soooo how are we going home workers? For me its the norm, but I live for sh...oots and meetings away from home, Im grateful for being able to work wherever I can but isolation was super testing because kids, housework, snacks 735 times a day etc etc. Im so grateful for my home life, Im so grateful for my job, but Im manifesting a warehouse office with bangin tunes, endless coffee and a snack maker of my own...who wants in? #photography #businessphotography #websitephotography #commercialphotography #wangarattaphotographer #benallaphotographer #alburyphotographer #melbournephotographer #socialmediacontent #flatlays #productphotography #website #localbusiness #mumlife #wfh #stayhome #ladyboss #bossbabe #mumpreneur #entrepreneur See more

25.01.2022 A little about moi!!! I first fell in love with crystals as a kid. I had an amethyst that I used to keep in a jewellery box, it was my protector. I never knew its power nor the importance that crystals would have on me as I became an adult. I have been adding to my crystal family ever since. My theory is usually I 'know' when I need one and when I need them in my life. I have them for all sorts of things. A lot for balance, protection, ...support, self love, self expression. I have them all over the house to balance energies and all that mumbo jumbo. I feel their energy a lot. I wear them when I work or carry one in my camera gear, it's always been a superstition. I have them in the office and kids rooms. I even used to sleep with one under my pillow. I recently moved this precious one to the foyer as I pass here a lot during the day and I feel a lot of love from it, it was a gift from a special angel and I know that she is always tuning in to the vibe of my family. Today I felt like I wanted to share this little love of mine with you all. I hope that it leads to connecting with other people like me or even sparks joy and inspo for others to share their little loves that may not be business related. x #contentcreator #socialmediamanager #digitalmarketing #wangarattaphotographer #supportsmallbusiness #marketingideas #websitemarketing #copywriting #onlinemarketing #productphotography #commercialphotography #marketingstrategy #supportlocalwangaratta #wangaratta #sheppartonphotographer #businessphotography #corporatephotography #melbournephotographer #wangarattaphotographer #mumsinbusiness See more

25.01.2022 Good vibes this weekend

25.01.2022 Love when my feed is lit up with past projects. I’ll take a Negroni and the prosciutto dish

24.01.2022 Is there nothing more amazing than getting your hair washed? The more I work with hair and beauty businesses the more I appreciate every hair wash and every finished result. It is a science and art!! But my point of this is... Its been a great six months working alongside some magic businesses. Whether its retail, hospitality, trade or creatives, its been a wild ride and I feel so much more knowledgeable in each profession. One thing that all have in common is a backing o...f professional education. And all keep on learning and educating....Ive been so lucky to be continually motivated and inspired by every client Ive worked with. Take this into your week this week. Find a great collective that continually motivates and inspires you. Also treat yourself to a hair wash #photography #businessphotography #websitephotography #commercialphotography #wangarattaphotographer #benallaphotographer #alburyphotographer #melbournephotographer #socialmediacontent #flatlays #productphotography #website #localbusiness #hairdresser #hairsalon

23.01.2022 My years in business have taught me a lot of things. As Ive aged, Ive grown. As my business has aged, its grown. When I think about saying Ive been doing this for almost 10 years I still feel like its not long enough to say Im an expert or a professional. But I remember looking at professionals way back who had been doing it for that long thinking whoa, youre an expert. Anyway my point here is no matter how long Ive been doing this thing I still second guess my...self, I second guess my business....I bloody well second guess this egg yolk and the light reflecting....its a me thing, or is it?! But it got me thinking of course about business and about life and if Im alone in this constant tug-a-war? I mean I can relate this to being a wife, a mother and a human. Everything that has happened in 2020 has given me an opportunity to stop, listen, learn and to grow. Never have I ever stopped and listened like Im doing now. How are you doing? How are you feeling? If youre a little bit like me, its nice to know youre not alone. #photography #businessphotography #websitephotography #commercialphotography #wangarattaphotographer #benallaphotographer #alburyphotographer #melbournephotographer #socialmediacontent #localbusiness #womeninbusiness #businesschicks #ladyboss #foodphotography

23.01.2022 Engagements are happening all over. Is it #iso ? I'm loving the sound of wedding bells in the distance, I'm excited to jump back into weddings after a 'maternity break'. It's been quite a mixed feeling of when will weddings start happening in full swing. My advice to all couples is to reach out and tentatively book all vendors and ask for their postponement and deposit terms. ... #photography #weddingphotography #love #commercialphotography #wangarattaphotographer #benallaphotographer #alburyphotographer #melbournephotographer #localbusiness #supportlocal See more

21.01.2022 Who remembers my confession about not having a facial since Bc (before children), sad but true?! Here’s a little collab with the the gals from @glossmakeupbeautystudio . We wanted a feminine feel with a luxe look. The pinks from their branding paired with all the things this business represents in self care. Iso has everyone craving all the self care needs and I think that these are the absolute bomb. ... Now if someone can send me some relaxation time and a babysitter I'll be here getting my glow on. Who is in need of a little self care today? Emoji love below See more

21.01.2022 Hump Day Vibes It’s time to take a seat and reset. Reflect on the first half of the week and plan for a bloody big second half of the week. What have you been doing today? Imma bout zonked

20.01.2022 Hit save and come back to this later. I don't want you to get all paranoid about anything but this is pretty true, right?! Now more than ever we are seeing this wave of online presence...meme after meme about shopping online and buying llama's etc. One of the hot topics at the moment in the commercial realm is branding and how we can bring vision and imagery and our words together so that it is a true representation of the business. Tell me, have y...ou ever looked up a website or social media to see what a business is all about, get a feel for the person you might be greeted with in store and online? How great does it feel to get a scope of a business before you buy? Or seeing a business or staff and relating to something that all of a sudden influencers you to buy? We all know what social media influencers are... As a business I challenge you to take a look from a customer point of view at your brand. How are you representing yourself and does it sit inline with your values and your product/service? Are you comfortable? Maybe you could use an influencer, maybe you could use a website update, maybe you could refresh content. The best thing about living in a digital world is that we can make changes all the time, we can grow and flow into where we feel most happy and we can be sure that when we're not in the room that everyone is saying what a kickass person and business you are. Just a little thinky thinky for you all . . #contentcreator #socialmediamanager #digitalmarketing #wangarattaphotographer #supportsmallbusiness #marketingideas #websitemarketing #copywriting #onlinemarketing #productphotography #commercialphotography #marketingstrategy #supportlocalwangaratta #wangaratta #sheppartonphotographer #businessphotography #corporatephotography #melbournephotographer #wangarattaphotographer #mumsinbusiness #blogger See more

19.01.2022 A little e-commerce work that I’m still loving because it was an impromptu shoot and a whack setup. I had a corner knock and a big ass window and a reflector to diffuse the reflections. Proof that you can still do it even without studio lighting set up. There was editing involved of course ... See more

19.01.2022 This is either a good one or boring one for you, mmk? I talk a lot with clients about the importance of models. In fact I talk in a way that can only really be described as vain and pretentious in a 100% genuine way (what an oxymoron) So lets get deep. Models in branding shoots are the representation of your business and brand. Choosing the right model will reflect how your images are portrayed. You might have a family member or even a friend that wou...ld be perfect, they can be your client, or a complete stranger but there are important points to consider. Hit save now so you can come back and reference this. 1. A model needs to be the look of your target market? Who even is your target market you might ask? DM me on that and I can help you out. 2. Your model must understand your passion and business ethos, be your jam, be your cheerleader and love everything you are trying to build. This can be a complete stranger as so long as you brief them and they start to oooze in inspiration. 3. They need Look good!!! Now I hate to be like this and I stress over and over to everyone when I send this to them but be picky on how someone looks. Visual marketing is VISUAL and humans fall in love with something they see before they hear, read, or get to know more. Its the Attraction part of Marketing. 4. Willing to give it their all and not hold back firstly because they are so confident but also because they are going to represent you and your business and be famous. 5. Briefed briefed briefed. When we work together I am fairly thorough...I brief and brand guide and style and recommend dont be afraid to share this with the model so they can walk in your shoes and see what our desired outcomes are. A model that knows their role is a good model. **Bonuses are someone who knows how to do hair and makeup and good clothing options. Hope this helped y'all, let me know below

18.01.2022 Ok, so when I first chatted with Candice I'm fairly certain I overflowed (verbal vomit) into how we can take her business here there and everywhere. I was left puffed after our phone call and to be honest I thought I'd get a text or email saying 'thanks, but you're too much'. Forever grateful that she trusted in me and we created this together with Wade. You see passionate people excite me. People with drive excite me and I do get a little (a lot)... excited planning, curating and executing each project. When someone tells me they're not naturally relaxed in front of the camera...well just tell me that Candice isn't a natural. I absolutely loved our re-branding session together. Oh and guys go check out @design.by.jones will you. Wade designs houses and Candice does all the interiors with you.

17.01.2022 oh hey, me again. There's been a lot of new faces drop on by in the last few weeks so I thought I'd pop my face in here and share a little about me. Im the face behind the brand Sarah Craven, its also my name. Ive been taking photos for almost 10 years, my muse was my first born but whilst studying it soon developed into a passion for food and styling then into weddings and then commercial. I fell in love with every project. The planning, ...the design and the roll out of implementing images to words. I began my expansion of business about 6 years ago when I found a hole in the market. I cant help but dive in deep with businesses, find out their passions, backstory and goals- I'm a goal digger and feed off inspiring individuals, I just love the 'why'. I decided Id bring my I study marketing and business and my passion for photography and create a business of branding, marketing and imagery. I dabbled in extending my knowledge in creative writing and digital platforms (because believe it or not when I started there was only myspace eeeek). So here I am today...often found getting way too excited about business projects, running from shoot to shoot, holding business mentoring sessions and sitting in my office creating some magic. It doesnt stop there though. Im a wife and a mumma to three little beasties and a gooofy labradoodle. We live rurally with sheep and chooks. I love to entertain, cook and there is always wine open. Im a mix of shy and way over the top. I share a lot about my life, I love to talk deep and find true soulful connections. I love expanding my skills and knowledge and I'm big on being real even if it's ugly. Im always up for life's challenges- there's been a few I have many life mantras but one of my faves is 'be brave, be kind, be grateful' Thanks for following along with me, I can't wait to connect See more

17.01.2022 Hey It's been a little while since I've popped my face in a tile so I thought why not come and say hi. There's been a lot of new faces on here and I love it. I connect with so many amazing people daily and I love social media for that. So what do you need to know about me, heres some fun facts. Let me know if we're similar I'm 36, married and have 3 children (10,4,2) I love mindfulness and spirituality, I'm big on what feels good for me... I'm an ugly laugher and uglier cryer and I'm not sorry for that I love music...ballads in my kitchen is my specialty I have social anxiety and always fear not being liked or being portrayed wrong I love old male actors - its a thing I'm sure My favourite music is anything not modern. Era's of Rod Stewart, Elton John, Whitney Houston...gimme classics I love wine and I love gin I'm a motor mouth - an hour meeting is always 2. I'm not sorry about that either So, that’s a little about me. I’d love to get to know you. If you’ve been here a while or just new. Come say hi See more

16.01.2022 One of my faves from 2020 Great branding prep and everything in this space just works. I love working with clients that have interiors to compliment their brand, logo and business personality and core values. It’s so important to align all those things don’t you think? ... It can be a little overwhelming at first getting all these babies in the basket but so so fun. I love every branding questionnaire that comes back to me during the planning stages, there’s always passion, there’s always dreams and there’s always questions for me, it’s created the best talking points this year and resulted in some killer shots. 2021 is in full swing now so if you’re wanting to start the planning stages please shoot me an email. Dates are filling for Jan and Feb now so I’d love to fit everyone in. See more

16.01.2022 Fun fact. The last time I had a facial was in 2006. That long ago that I can't even remember what it was like. That long ago that I walked into Taneia's studio and was like a deer in the headlights.. I've had tans, pedi's and get my brows done but I have only lived facial envy through watching endless clips on IGTV and Pinterest of all the researching in brand marketing for Gloss. I learnt a lot ( as I do with everyone I work with). I really felt the heart and passion in the business and in all the girls that work there too. Truly a magical place and seriously zen and inviting. Do yourself a favour and check them out. Their @dermaviduals blew my mind too so ask them all the juicy goss on that lil gem.

16.01.2022 Nothing says Spring like a Rose. Am I right or am I right?! Such beautiful wine and art. What a pleasure to capture this pot of rose gold (see what I did there?) More of this brand to come! ... #contentcreator #productphotography #styling #content #contentmarketing #contentcreation #photography #digitalmarketing #influencer #socialmediamarketing #marketing #socialmedia #branding #entrepreneur #brandingphotography #wangaratta #northeastvictoria #wangarattaphotographer #benalla #shepparton #website #commericalphotography #photographer See more

15.01.2022 Caught, young girl growing up way too fast. Someone press pause (well actually rewind a few years-tweening is yiiikes) But I love this girl. She’s my clone in so many ways I love and also so many ways I cringe at. But I know she’s getting through ok because she just walks to the beat of her own drum. I love that she loves taking care of her herself, is aware of good and bad products and loves toxin free. I love how she flows with her intuition and I love... that she loves doing what she wants and she doesn’t follow the crowd. I won’t mention how I cringe at her need to know it all, the fact she sweeps all her mess under her bed and that she is third parent in the house. Does parenting girls get any easier, less worrisome and a little more chill as the years go by? I’m predicting a lot of drama coming . . . See more

14.01.2022 Full client appreciation here! Not only do these guys provide my family with the most amazing market and farm fresh produce but they also supply all my produce for food shoots. When we worked together earlier this year to produce a bus campaign I got an insight into all the work to get produce to supermarkets, restaurants and cafes and to local homes. They are deadset legends! ... #photography #businessphotography #websitephotography #commercialphotography #wangarattaphotographer #melbournephotographer #contentcreation #productphotography #website #localbusiness #supportlocal #brandingphotographer #branding #socialmedia #productphotography See more

14.01.2022 Every year I say ‘I’m going to be so organised and get all my shopping done early....’ And every year I fail to live up to that statement and you’ll find me running around the week of Christmas and even Christmas Eve like a mad woman just buying whatever falls off the shelf. I’ve written lists this year, I bought highlighters (lol) and screen shot a heap too. I’m hoping I get to tackle it all early next week but my guess is you’ll still see me running a...round Christmas Eve Anyone else do a mad dash the week of Christmas? See more

14.01.2022 This ones a shout out to a business and the people in it. I first partnered up with Essential Living Curtains and Blinds to shoot a little bit of this and a little bit of that....we have now completed three properties together, an image library for blogs, products, projects, stock imagery for social media and websites and a business friendship (I hope lol). I try and create any reason to chat to them all because they are so driven, so passionate and so so clever in everything... they do. And they go out of their way to make me feel appreciated - that is a winning business. And I get to hang out in places that I dream of living in...I'm normally not a yellow person but guuurl I'll take this yellow in any penthouse!!

14.01.2022 Stock imagery is the most underrated imagery...its my opinion. It's here to use as a conversation starter, it's a vibe. Stock imagery gives you the opportunity to talk about what ever you like, write content that has something personal, something factual, something that a product image or a portrait just can't say. There's less focus on the image and more on the content. I've said it before I know, I'm on repeat but I truly love stock imagery for all uses #photography #businessphotography #websitephotography #commercialphotography #wangarattaphotographer #benallaphotographer #alburyphotographer #melbournephotographer #socialmediacontent #flatlays #productphotography #website #localbusiness #supportlocal #contentcreation #socialmedia

13.01.2022 EDITING {hit the save} Top tips for editing your iPhone pics coming at you....NoW!! 1. Download LIGHTROOM. it’s free ok and it is so different to your iPhone camera in so many ways. ... 2. Learn what your image needs. So my last little tip post on lighting and taking pics I mentioned to find the ONE spot that works and use it all.the.time. Why? because consistency is king and it will drive you insane editing every single time. 2.a) there’s a but though. If you’re a brand that has a setup that moves (events, styling) then find the lighting situation within your environment. Confused? Just DM me 3. Start with Exposure. Move your slider left and right to find the sweet spot. Don’t go over the top as you’ll blow the image out in parts 4. Contrast is your friend. Add contrast. It will enhance shadows, help give depth and a dimension. 5. What’s your style? Is your feed warm or cool? Is your post about warm and fuzzy’s? Changing the temp of your image will change the mood of your pic and the feel of your post. 6. Sharpen your image and if it’s grainy take a little noise out 7. Crop and straighten. Geometrics is a great tool. Ever taken a pic on the fly and then looked at it and seen it’s all wonky. Take away. Get to know this app. Don’t settle for mediocre iPhone editing. Be careful of your iPhone camera settings and how it changes your image from the get go. If you have a product that needs true colours shown, use Lightroom to take your pics also. reach out if you’re confused. My DMs are always flooding with questions. Book a one on one session with me at work or home to sort it all out for you. See more

13.01.2022 SUNDAYS are for planning and setting up the week. I used to use Mondays to set up the week but then I found I just ran behind for the week. Im now taking Sunday mornings (especially while hubbys home) to plan, write, edit and set the next week up. I am a creature of habit so I make the routine the same every week. This morning included coffee -always coffee breathing techniques to clear my mind goals and targets for week ahead... written content image matching a little editing - never too much or Im a zombie report writing - I work with businesses in creating content, posts, marketing plans (which I studied way back) social media account management and engagement - so I spend time interacting with accounts, people, products a little colour therapy to finish - design is a huge love of mine. Id love to have a job label that I could add something about being a colour therapist but it never sounds right. But colour and light are be dry important. I studied colour therapy and what colours do for you, what goes with what and how we can use colour to target customers. Also in editing colour is my sweet spot. I love nothing more than diving deep into the hues of colour in images. Changing up tones, adding splashes of contrast to make the key element pop. Its my creative time before I jump into house work, farm work and Sunday chilling. Whats your Sunday tradition? Is it a thing? #photography #businessphotography #websitephotography #commercialphotography #wangarattaphotographer #benallaphotographer #alburyphotographer #melbournephotographer #socialmediacontent #flatlays #productphotography #website #localbusiness #supportlocal #contentcreation #socialmedia #productphotography See more

13.01.2022 One of the things I love about working with brands is the marketing consult. (pictured here- the beautiful and cleverly amazing Jaz). A lot of people I work with never know about my marketing background and how I combined that knowledge and experience with photography to create my business. It made me think about how we as business owners think we are getting out there what we do when sooo much of what we can do for people are hidden behind the scenes. For me I can ...become complacent in my business and assume every one knows what I do because I know what I do. I bang on to clients that marketing products and business also has to include marketing yourself and re-telling your story over and over again. The difference between a contract, sale and regular client can come down to how we as humans market ourselves and get out what we do and not just hope that our images speak for us. In my time on the scene and working with a lot of businesses I am blown away with elements that are left out of a about me, a social feed, website info etcso I wanted today to be a reminder to check your services, your bio, your story and your business infoare you showing all your talents off? What is missing that may set you apart from others that you didnt realise until now? #photography #businessphotography #websitephotography #commercialphotography #wangarattaphotographer #benallaphotographer #alburyphotographer #melbournephotographer #socialmediacontent #flatlays #productphotography #website #localbusiness #supportlocal #contentcreation #socialmedia #productphotography See more

09.01.2022 Creating marketing content is a little bit magic, for me. You know that thing you do that lights you up?! Whatever is for you keep doing it. I think it really is great for the soul. I’m so grateful that I get to do this everyday. What’s your thing? ... See more

I’ve always been an adventurous eater but every dish coming from @qualitywangarattagateway blows my mind. The secret to this one is horseradish and the most vibrant trout. Have you tried it yet?

07.01.2022 A little bit of 'lifestyle' photo work. There are so many types of image styles out there, I love individuality and how it is all interpreted. But here's the lowdown on styles 1. Lifestyle Commercial Branding - this is a styled shot in a situation that the consumer can relate to and feel all the feels, slot into and is a softer marketing style for businesses and products. Shoots like this are held on location at styled houses or in work spaces. ... 2. Product Shots - products are captured on a background and are used for online stores and promotions. Backgrounds can be a solid colour or transparent so they can fit into graphic designs. These are done in studio. Items are posted or dropped off and then returned once complete. 3. Styled Product Shots - heard the term 'flatlay'? Styled product shots are typically taken overhead, arranged in an appealing way to attract consumers. These are usually done from a studio but an be done on location. What makes these images special is that they are unique to you and your business and you stand out from the crowd. All these types are incorporated into Branding shoots in line with our marketing ideas too so it can be something that you can consider for your business. Which style would work for you? Hoping this brings some light into what goes into planning. #contentcreator #content #contentmarketing #contentcreation #photography #digitalmarketing #melbournephotographer #socialmediamarketing #marketing #socialmedia #branding #entrepreneur #brandingphotography #wangaratta #northeastvictoria #wangarattaphotographer #benalla #shepparton #website #commericalphotography #photographer See more

06.01.2022 Food Projects. Heres a little fun fact or five about what the behind the scenes of my food collaborations is. 1. Most of the time and especially my latest collab I prep, cook, style, photograph and edit each dish. Now this fact has blown a few minds lately. But thats how I started this thing. I was creating recipes and photographing them for blogs and special dietary needs. It has since evolved into one of my favourite parts of my business. ... 2. My record so far has been 20 dishes in one 7 hour day cooked, styled and shot with proofs sent off. It was an extremely long day and an extremely messy day. 3. I do a lot from my home studio (until I get my dream warehouse with a commercial kitchen in studio) so have everything at my finger tips. 4. I also travel a lot to capture restaurants, cafes, wineries, bars....you name it. 5. I have a strong background in marketing and hospitality (7 years) so thats always been a big advantage when it comes to planning and concept. I love how I get to dive back into an old passion and talk food and marketing. 6. I love styling and studied that as well as colour therapy, design for placement and branding. This has been a big kicker for me in projects because it gives me the ability to cover all parts if the client is looking for that. It can help with affordability and also if space is small or production is small. So if my passion and love of what I do doesnt come across in my images it is sure here behind the scenes...everyday . Every project excites me no matter what. Whether it be food, business or weddings its all projects I get to create the freeze frames for the people who get to enjoy them for years to come. Sending lots of love and happy vibes today #foodphotography #foodstyling #restaurantphotography #australianphotographer #f52grams #feedfeed #foodie #foodporn #melbourneeats #vscocam #vscofood #foodpics #foodspotting #foodgasm #huffposttaste #instafood #buzzfeedfood #recipeoftheday #buzzfeast #goodfoodau #foodshare #glutenfree #dairyfree

06.01.2022 I am so excited for my beauty friends tomorrow in Victoria. I have worked with the most lovely beauty (and hair) businesses this year I have seen how hard they work, how passionate they are and how they have made it through all the tough times. I know for some tomorrow is a big day when they welcome back facial treatments and services. ... I know it’s a massive day for this lady especially because when Maddy first opened her doors early in the year, she also closed them the same day and has been riding that covid wave since. Maddy’s business is a unique skin clinic and her qualifications are exceptional. Give this lady and all my beauty friends all the love tomorrow and book them out. I’m gifting myself a facial for Christmas this year because it’s been 10 yrs See more

05.01.2022 You might not see a huge difference but these two images on a feed... Yes there are small differences but on a feed an inconsistent look can deter your clients. Humans are visual beings. We look for pretty, we look for a show stopper (on in social media case...a scroll stopper). Faces stop more scrolling, bright, sharp images stop scrolling. Of course a pretty picture doesnt just do it, rest assured we cover every inch of socials and marketing but this is ...a pretty important aspect. Im so happy and excited with businesses results this month killing it at image taking from out mentoring sessions. Do you have a favourite feed that just looks the goods?!

05.01.2022 I talked someone out of a shoot last week. Crazy, I know. Right now we are seeing changes in business. Businesses are opening and there is a sense of urgency to get.things.done. But one of my roles in what I do is to make sure that my collabs get what is going to set them on fire and launch something magic. ... To take the time to get things right in the marketing space sets up longevity of business success, jumping the gun can result in a lot of stress and a lot of stress comes across in social media posts, a functioning work space and it's just good for you. Branding and content creation sets you up for months. We're always planning months ahead. I'm planning Christmas now in September and 2021 kicks off in November. The content allows adjustments and pivots - that's something I've learnt to do a lot more this year lol. But overall I want to give everyone the best of them, it's all in timing. I'm not sure if this resonates with anyone but if it helps someone that may be in a panic I'm glad. Have a fabulous week x ps-this image has nothing to do with this other than it's delicious blooms- maybe blooming at the right time?! #contentcreator #content #contentmarketing #contentcreation #photography #melbournephotographer #socialmediamarketing #marketing #socialmedia #branding #entrepreneur #brandingphotography #wangaratta #northeastvictoria #wangarattaphotographer #benalla #shepparton #website #commericalphotography #photographer See more

04.01.2022 Hands up who’s googled ‘cocktail recipes’ in the last four days? I have a feeling my fellow Victorian friends may get where I’m coming from. Lockdown is never easy, the mental load, the fact work halts or has to pivot...it’s something we never plan on, right?! If you’ve seen my stories I decided to paint my house (good decision at the time, my arms and brain are slowly losing motivation now though ). My best decision though, a new bottle of Gin from @logansmicrodistil...lery Tell me one of your worst or best decisions made in lockdown or life See more

04.01.2022 I’ve always been a see something, strive for it kind of girl. If there’s opportunity grab it, you know, go go go?! But lately I’ve been doing my normal ‘wu-wu’ stuff in trusting that where I am and what comes to me is meant to be. Trusting in the timing of everything. I think you can still strive but in a manifesting kind of way. It’s funny how things turn out the way you kind of want it to but in it’s own way. ... How simple does that sound? It’s so hard to not see what’s in your feed and want to do that, be that, and all that. But to let what’s meant to be, just be, well, I think that’s a cool thing, authentically cool. Can you relate?

03.01.2022 So excited to share a little of our latest collaboration together. Quality Hotel Wangaratta Gateway have been pumping out take aways during lockdown 1.0 and 2.0 and lets just say that that Burger right there is so big and so amazing I almost didn't get to photograph it because everyone wanted to devour it. Oh and before you ask...yes there were cocktails, lots of delicious creations coming. ... #foodstyling #foodphotography #wangaratta #australianphotographer #wangarattaphotographer #northeastvictoria #commercialphotography #brandphotographer#contentcreation @thefeedfeed #f52grams #beautifulcuisines #onthetable #huffposttaste #thekitchn #onmytable #lifeandthyme #buzzfeast #foodandwine #hautecuisines #foodphoto #foodwinewomen #foodblogger See more

01.01.2022 I could write so much about this image. The colour, the flatware, the pairing of ingredients....Working with chefs that have a love for seasonal produce, know their colour wheel and can put together a menu that when the dishes are lined up, they all compliment each other is my favourite kind of collab. Also throw in some dimensional lighting to create contrast and texture and placement of props, camera angle and composition. Complex, yet simple, but there you have your image....
