I'm a massive believer in genuine smiles, I hate fake camera smiles! In order to get genuine smiles I'm often joking around. I work hard to get people to laugh, smile and relax in front of my camera. If I'm told someone hates their photo being taken I make it my secret mission to make it a fun stress free experience for them. I want my clients to walk away having had a fun time at the shoot. Rarel

y these days do we dedicate time just for us or our family, being 100% present, away from screens genuinely connecting so it's important to me that this precious time be cherished and enjoyed. Besides who wants to look at pictures of a photoshoot they white knuckled it through hating every second! When you look back on my photos I want you love the images and to remember what a good time you had that day.

🍷 PORT MACQUARIE WOMEN... WHO'S READY TO DITCH THE BOOZE THIS JULY? 🍷
Let's be honest. That glass of wine can be pretty bloody tempting after a long day. But have you ever wondered how good you might feel if you gave it a break for a month?

Kris from Kristen Shaw Photography and Krystal from F**t With Krystal have joined forces to create The Sober Sisterhood — a fun, supportive, judgment-free Dry July challenge for women across Port Macquarie and the Mid North Coast.

This challenge is primarily about taking a break from alcohol and seeing what happens when you give your body a chance to reset. Better sleep. More energy. Clearer skin. Improved fitness. More money in your pocket. Fewer Sunday morning regrets.

Not a big drinker? That's okay too. If alcohol isn't your thing, you can choose another habit you'd like to tackle. Chocolate, sugar, takeaway, soft drink, doom-scrolling... whatever has a little too much control over your life.

Kris from Kristen Shaw Photography is giving up her beloved vino for the month. 🍷❌
Krystal from F**t With Krystal is giving up chocolate. 🍫❌
And we're inviting the women of Port Macquarie and the Mid North Coast to join us.

🚨 CONFESSION TIME, SISTERS... 🚨
What's harder to give up for 31 days?

🍫 Chocolate

Our little Shutter Sisterhood girl gang went a bit gangbusters over the weekend and membership doubled. We now have 160 members in The Hood which is insane! I’m dropping an email tomorrow exclusively to The Shutter Sisters with all the juicy details of something exciting coming up and a pretty decent discount for existing Shutter Sisters. I can’t spill all the beans. If you have not joined The Hood and would like to, now is a pretty good time. This info won’t be dropped on my socials and website until next month so if you are not on the Shutter Sisterhoods email list rectify that if you want in on the dets.

Well this is exciting. A four page spread in the June Focus mag for my little group The Shutter Sisterhood. Or The Hood as it’s known on the streets (sounds much more gangster than ladies camera club). Let me know in the comments if you can get your hands on a copy. I haven’t found it yet.

After years behind the camera, local photographer Kristen Shaw Photography has created The Shutter Sisterhood - a welcoming creative community where women across the Mid North Coast can connect, learn and rediscover the joy of photography together.
Check them out in our June edition of FOCUS, in print and online.

Prepping for my next photography class. One of the ladies in the last workshop said I should have Certified Manual Minx Certificates. I listened. I’m just tossing up if graduation hats are necessary…someone stop me!

3 seats left in my June workshop. If you would like to be a Certified Manual Minx you know what to do!

I have had so many beautiful reviews from my photography classes this past week. I feel so humbled to get to do what I love and call it ‘a job’. This one nearly made me cry so I thought I’d share it for Mum to read. Thanks Heidi and all my Manual Minxes I appreciate you taking the time out to leave a review. ###
