🌟 Happy World Dream Day! 🌟 Dreams are the seeds of our future. But for them to grow, we need more than imagination, we need focus, planning, and small daily actions. 🖊️ Write your dreams down. 📌 Break them into steps. ⭐️ Take action, even if it’s tiny. Each little step keeps us moving forward, reminding us that our goals are possible. Dreams without action stay as wishes, but dreams with focus become our reality. Today, let’s celebrate by committing to one small action that takes us closer to where we want to be. ✨ What dream are you focusing on today? #WorldDreamDay #DreamBig #FocusOnYourDreams #TakeAction #PositiveLife

Weekend in Caithness I took a few days off to visit my in-laws, as my father-in-law is currently facing health problems without any solution at this stage. Normally, I take my camera with me, but after a lovely lunch the outing was quite spontaneous. So instead, I captured a few moments with my phone. Now back in Aberdeenshire it’s time to start the work routine, so I woke up at 5am to be ready (with makeup included) for my BNI networking online meeting. Have a lovely and productive week. #caithness #highlands #scotland #visitscotland #entreprenuerlife #businessownerslife #aberdeenphotographer #aberdeenshirephotography
Authenticity is not one single face we show to the world, it has many layers. As human beings, we are professionals, parents, friends, dreamers, and so much more. People will recognise your authenticity in the aspect you decide to share with them. That’s why a photo can reveal a version of you that others never expected, yet still feels completely real. True authenticity doesn’t mean showing everything, it means showing yourself in a way that aligns with your truth at that moment. Whether it’s your professional side, your playful side, or your most vulnerable side, each one is an authentic part of you. ✨ Remember: you are what you show. 📸 Photography has the power to capture and reflect those hidden layers. #aberdeenphotographer #personalbranding #authenticity #entrepreneurlife #businesswoman #businessowner #womenover50
