Let me show you one of Aberdeen’s hidden gems… but first, this was my week. I met Ritu Awasthi (@samagrahealth) for coffee, who is giving a free online session on the 19th of May at 6.30 pm as part of the Grampian Wellbeing Festival. If you are a business owner who wants to explore meditation, it’s a wonderful place to start. While I was preparing my online talk for ASB on 28th of May at 6 pm, the link is in my stories, I was interrupted by this cute pheasant. Now, back to what I promised. I was invited to a networking event at @cwt_compass_project. This is a place in the suburbs of Cults where they grow fruit and vegetables organically. If your kids are doing the DOE, this is a great option as they welcome volunteers. You can also celebrate birthday parties or hold business meetings there, and they have a great area for indoor sports too. It is a charity focused on wellbeing, and they are also planning to open a café, which is very exciting news for me because I love cafés and gardens, so the combination is perfect. Beyond the unpredictable weather, Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire are beautiful places to live, with lovely independent cafés and beautiful architecture. I ended the week at our favourite traditional Italian restaurant. #aberdeenphotographer #aberdeennetworking #entrepeneurlife

Branding photography more than having a few professional pictures for social media. It goes a few layers deeper than that. As a business owner, you are visually communicating who you are, what your business represents, and how you want people to feel when they find you online. Before someone speaks to you, books your service, or sends an enquiry, they are already building an opinion based on your visual presence. And people notice more than you think. They notice if your images look professional. Good branding photography helps people trust you faster because they can see the person behind the business. It also gives you confidence to show up online consistently instead of struggling to find content every week. A branding session is about creating visual material with purpose, so people can identify with that world or want to be part of it. #aberdeencity #aberdeenbrandingphotography #aberdeenpersonalbrand #aberdeenbusiness

⭐️Ageing & Portraits⭐️ Ageing is another of the biggest reasons people avoid being photographed. Some people miss how they used to look, and they don’t feel photogenic anymore. Like tulips, people are usually photographed in their splendour, but as an avid gardener, I find the most beautiful and interesting images of tulips when they are “ageing”. We live in a world obsessed with youth and often eliminate something important: beauty that comes from character, resilience, and individuality. And for that reason, so many people become uncomfortable with the natural changes of life that they stop allowing themselves to be seen. We can’t pretend to be in our 20s forever. Portrait photography is a document that registers how you evolve, and part of that evolution is gaining more elegance and sophistication in your clothing choices because you now have a stronger sense of personal identity and style. Another gain with age is your natural presence and authority, which provide depth to your portrait. Ageing should not make you disappear from your own story. Some of the most powerful portraits I ever created were not about youth. They were about presence, confidence, resilience, experience, and identity. There is beauty in every stage of life, and you deserve to exist in photographs too. #womenover40 #selfacceptancejourney #aberdeenphotography #sonyalpha
