I’m often asked whether I have a studio that clients can come to. The answer is yes… although, these days, it looks just as much like an art studio () as it does a photography studio.

My little creative space sits at the back of my home in Springfield and, as a multidisciplinary creative, it is where photography, painting, stitching, experimenting and plenty of creative mess all come together.

While the studio is always available for clean, studio-style portraits, as a business and personal branding photographer, I often prefer to photograph people within their own spaces.

Their office. Their workplace. Their studio. Somewhere that feels connected to who they are and the story they are sharing.

For me, showing up authentically is powerful, and the right environment can establish your story before clients even read the words. But there are times when a studio shoot is the perfect choice and that can be done in my studio or I can set up my mobile studio.

For Eric Bailey’s personal brand shoot, a strong portrait against a simple, solid background was exactly what was needed. Clean, intentional and focused entirely on him.

Every shoot is different. It is never about forcing someone into one particular style—it is about choosing the setting that best supports their story, their brand and how they want to show up.

This time last year, I was sitting down with Matthew Taylor-Farrington from Purple Bunny Marketing for the Greater Springfield Business Connect podcast, talking about Branding Profiles and my journey as a creative entrepreneur.

This week, I found myself back in the same chair, but talking about something completely different.

This time, I was there wearing my Creative Hearts Co. . co-founder hat, sharing the story of our art gallery and creativity hub and why Marie Ferguson , Sean and I believe creativity has a crucial role to play in building stronger communities.

Marie was meant to join me for the interview, but unfortunately had to pull out at the last minute. As anyone who has seen us speak together would know, we tend to bounce ideas off each other. So while it was a great chat, part of me couldn't help but feel like I was only sharing half the story.

The funny thing is, a few years ago, the thought of sitting in front of a microphone by myself would have absolutely terrified me. I would have overthought every answer, worried about getting it wrong, and probably looked for a reason not to do it at all. These days, I've started looking at opportunities like this a little differently.

Instead of thinking, "I have to do this," I find myself thinking, "I get to do this."

I get to talk about a project I care deeply about. I get to share what we're creating. I get to shine a light on the artists, volunteers, workshop facilitators and our sponsors who are helping bring it to life.

I've realised that visibility isn't really about putting yourself in the spotlight. It's about helping people discover ideas, opportunities, causes and communities they may never have found otherwise.

So while I'll probably spend the next four weeks wondering whether I represented Creative Hearts Co. well enough without Marie by my side, I'm also grateful that I said yes.

More often than not, the things that stretch us are the very things that move us forward.

I'll share the episode when it's released. In the meantime, here's a link to last year's podcast if you'd like to hear how much can change in just twelve months.

Also, thank you Greater Springfield Chamber Of Commerce for giving your members a platform to share their stories.
