What’s coming up for my business, Studio Gently, this summer 👉🏻

(I’m most excited for the last slide!)

🌿 I’m hosting my first webinar of the year

If you are curious about why some brand photoshoots get published and why some don’t, I’m sharing what I’ve learnt! Comment “PUBLICATION” for the sign-up form to join us 📖

🌿 I’m hosting a giveaway!

Keep your eyes peeled this month because your girl is hosting a giveaway, worth over £700. Be sure to follow because I’ll be announcing it here 💪🏻

🌿 We’ll be connecting for some coworking

I love a coworking session, so I’ll be hosting a remote, free coworking session for my email community to join and get stuff done. Because sometimes the to-do list needs ticking off, even during the heat of summer!

🌿 I’m thinking about organising a sauna trip?

I’ve loved going to the sauna with my yoga buds, but I think a sauna session with some business kin would be just as fun! We can get to know each other while savouring the sauna goodness

🌿 I’m releasing my new podcast, Gently Powerful

I’m so excited that my podcast is nearly ready for the world, and I think you will love it too! It’s all about growing your business in a way that honours your health and values – growing gently but powerfully.

What are you most excited about this summer?!

This week I learned a big life lesson:

Just tell people what I really want 😂

Because I got a real taster that manifestation has merit last week!

I shared a LinkedIn post about my dreams for my brand photography business, Studio Gently...

And in it I mentioned wanting to do more public speaking in 2026.

Secretly, I was hoping for interviews, because I want to build things up a little!

Only for the lovely Marti from Wee Bit Social to offer me a spot at her Coffee + Chats event, doing exactly that 😍

We'll share more info soon, but for now, thank you so much Marti, I’m really excited!

And if you are in or around Edinburgh and looking for a interview or panel guest... I’m very keen 🤍

What's the best thing you've ever manifested? 🤔

One thing that's surprised me about refining my brand photography process:
ㅤ
The gentler I have made each photoshoot feel, the more confident my clients have become 💪🏻
ㅤ
And I can really see the difference in my sessions in Year 10 compared with Year 1 of my work 📸
ㅤ
Because I’m no longer rushing people, pressuring them to have answers they don't have, or to know what to do in an environment where I’m the expert.
ㅤ
If this has got you curious, I have just one spot left at my mini portrait day here at Arthur's Seat this month 🤍
ㅤ
Comment "MINI" and I'll ping you all the info, or head to the link in my bio for more 🤳🏻
ㅤ
I can't wait to nurture your business this November 😍
ㅤ
What do you do differently compared with when you started your business? 🤔

I’m not overexaggerating when I say that even just one hour of preparation will transform your brand photography results.

This is why a brand photoshoot is different from being snapped by your friend's iPhone 🤳🏻

In the latter, you have no time to settle into the moment and look like your true self, free from pressure.

But at a brand photoshoot, it's all about me doing the hard work before the session...
..So the day itself feels nurturing and fun.

AKA – the perfect photoshoot environment 😂

I bloomin love a bit of prep!

I adore doing my welcome workshop with clients, planning every element of their day in their photoshoot plan, and catching up in our pre-shoot calls.

What do you wish more folk knew about your industry? 🤍

Your work takes place in a desk…

Yet here we are on our consultation call, chatting about which outdoor spaces would make sense for your brand 🌿

Especially for folks new to brand photography, it can be tempting to stick to indoor settings for your next session!

But I think every session needs an outdoor and indoor component, and today I’m sharing exactly why…

I think you will like this one 💪🏻

A bit of an uncomfortable truth:

You can't get strategic using brand photos that have no strategy behind them 🤍

This is why I feel so proud to be doing things the Studio Gently way 📸🌿

Because for every client, launch, lead magnet, or speaking gig, you need photos that create opportunity.

And if you've seen my recent posts, you might have seen how I’m giving you a peek into the strategy that goes into every brand session!

I want your photoshoot to be customised to your future:

🏡 A location that feels 100% you

🧣 Outfits that make sense for the goals you are welcoming in

🤝 Photos of you with clients, public speaking, or leading masterclasses to book you those opportunities
..and honestly, so much more.

Here's a wee sense of what you really don't want when investing in a brand photoshoot 👇🏻

You know where I am if you are ready for what you do 🤍

What uncomfortable truth would you share about your industry? 🤔

Pinch me please 🤍

Today, my last ever issue of arrived, including the two features I shot of and 😍

I’m planning a full post with my 91 Magazine story for another time, but for now, thank you so much for letting me into your worlds, Helen and Jess... and thank you so much for an amazing seven issues, Caroline!

Has your issue arrived yet? 🤔
