Are you missing a huge opportunity with stock images?

Are you missing a huge opportunity with stock images?

by admin | Apr 23, 2017 | Commercial photography, Women in business

Beautiful stock images, cheap stock image and even free stock images, there is so much talk about stock images, but are you missing this one really big opportunity? I see so many articles at the moment about stock images, and I see lots of people asking where you can...

Sidste chance i år for billeder i Danmark :o) Je Sidste chance i år for billeder i Danmark :o) Jeg kan tage 1 eller 2 bookinger til næste uge og en enkelt til Oktober. Send en besked hvis det kan passe... og tag endelig jeres forældre og bedsteforældre med! Det er lidt kort varsel, men det har været lidt vanskeligt at planlægge i år! . . . #familiefotograf #familiefotografering #viborg #ans #silkeborg #kjellerup #sidstechance #kortvarsel #nyplaner #efterår
Socially distanced, but a real life event! Today @ Socially distanced, but a real life event! Today @jenni_nurturingmums will be hosting her new Bump & Baby Clinic in my studio, and I just love the feeling of something “real” happening. Especially something for mums with babies! I am altogether super grateful for my little studio space, where I can control everything. I have hosted various events in there over the past few months and I genuinely feel it’s a very Covid safe space! Yes, I’m slightly obsessively cleaning it, but that’s a small price to pay for a flicker of normality :) I’ve reached a point of “this isn’t going away for a very long time, so let’s get better at functioning with it”! Despite the new guidelines this week, I am ready for real life events. Small(!), super safe!(), well organised(!) real life events (You won’t find me at the pub!!!) – anyone else? PS: Go and follow Jenni for details about her next Bump & Baby event in October. PPS: If you are interested in hosting a small group, my studio is available to hire for half/full days, certain days of the week. . . . #harbslocal #marketharboroughliving #mumevent #babyevent #ahintofnormal #leicestershirebusiness #leicestershire #northamptonshire #collaboration #smallbusiness #mystudio #covid19life
I signed the petition a few weeks back, campaignin I signed the petition a few weeks back, campaigning for partners to be allowed at the pregnancy scans and midwife appointments. I’m not up to date with the latest news but surely it must have changed now?! At the last Bump Hour event lots of partners came along, and they all commented how this was the only maternity “appointment/event” they had been allowed to attend. Tonight is our third Covid-19 version of the Bump Hour events (crazy, who would ever have thought that back in March!). The evenings are drawing in, so we will be in the studio, but everyone has a set time, no one will overlap, no one will be touching anything, I will (of course!) be wearing a mask, and everything is super safe! I think we have two available spaces, if anyone would like a last minute place… 😊 As always, it is just the £10 donation to the local Home Start Team, and then there is nothing else to pay. . . . #harbslocal #marketharboroughliving #maternityphotography #charityevent #givingback #capturelife #leicester #leicestershire #leicestershiremums #kettering #kibworth #documentinglife #motherhoodmusings #documentingfamily #leicestershirephotographer #maternitypictures #maternitylife #pregnancylife #babyontheway #bumppic #expectingmom #thirdtrimester #momtobe2020 #mothertobe #expectingmum #expectingmums #expecting #oundle #leicestermums #ketteringmums
“You haven’t been on social media for a while, “You haven’t been on social media for a while, are you ok?”, I’ve had several of these messages in the last couple of days, and I’m all kind of emotional about this! I have a strained relationship with social media, is it real, is it fake, how much personal stuff do we share, are we just shouting into nothingness? And yet, it turns out that people have noticed that I was missing, how completely heart-warming is that?! The reason I have been missing, is because my dad passed away. It wasn’t entirely unexpected, but it was a bit of a turbulent few weeks, and I have mainly been in Denmark. I’m back in the UK, and slowly picking up the pieces I dropped on the floor! THANK YOU to everyone who has sent me beautiful messages, flowers and chocolates – you have no idea how much it means! In fact, I had no idea how much it would mean! Anyway, I'll get back on it now ;) Oh and also, make sure you get some pictures of you and your parents! . . . #thankyou #grateful #socialmediamightbegood #backonsocialmedia #loss #missing #harbslocal #backtowork #friends #thoughtful

You can still book a personal branding shoot with me in September and October (I have very little availability), but from November I will be focusing on my baby/family photography & film work. I LOVE branding, but I have found during lockdown that actually I am quite happy just doing personal branding photography for my own business – so selfish I know 😉 I do have one or two ideas bubbling away in the background… but time will tell if I do anything with them in the New Year (how are we even talking about next year already?!)… Have you made any big business changes after lockdown? Did it feel scary? Ps: This is from a post lockdown shoot for the lovely Sew Special Soft Furnishings, just never got around to sharing them :) . . . #brandingphotography #personalbrandingphotography #contentcreation #socialmediacontent #leicestershirebusiness #mumbiz #freelancingfemales #womeninbusiness #fempreneurs #mumpreneurs #womensupportingwomen #leicestershire #harbslocal #marketharboroughliving #buildingapersonalbrand #changes #newtimes #makingchoices

Anyway, I hope you had a fantastic summer break? We are back from holidays (Norfolk and Denmark), and I have been back working for a bit, but the boys won’t be back at school until Thursday so last few days of juggling… PS.

I am working here and there during most of the holiday, and I might drop a few post here and there, but overall I am very ready for a break ;) Anyone lucky enough to go away this summer? We are going to Norfolk for a few days and we are going to Denmark – yes I know, don’t mention the flying bit, but this will be the first time I see my parents since New Years, I can’t wait!!!

I can’t shake a conversation I had last week! Ch I can’t shake a conversation I had last week! Chatting to another self employed mum, who is making big changes, she said lock down had made her see how they had created a life where her family, home and garden had become a burden that had to be fitted in after work – that hit me hard. There is something uncomfortable and almost shameful about the word “burden”, but I do think there is some truth in that!? But then, during lock down you start to really ENJOY your super simple everyday life and ENJOY your house and garden (perhaps not the cleaning!)… we don’t usually document our own everyday life nearly enough, and as schools are now breaking up for the summer, I would urge you to document your everyday, not just the beach and the holidays. And let’s all try to remain mindful of the value of everyday, and not let work run away with us again 😉 Was your family, house and garden something on your must-do-list before lock down??? On a different note, this is just yesterday’s lunch (mainly with stuff from the garden), and I combined the picture with one of the 24 FREE images from my “Spring images” that are still available on my blog (dorte.co.uk) if you need new background images for your social media. Message me if you would like a direct link… Have a great weekend! . . . #freestockimages #everydaylife #everydaylifesnapshots #stylingmycreativity #slowingdown #beautifuleveryday #businesswoman #businessownership #savvybusinesswomen #harbslocal #marketharboroughliving #selfemployedwomen #buildingmybusiness #selfemployedmum #mumpreneurlife #leicestershire #socialmediacontent #contentcreation #socialmediaphotography #socialmediacontentcreator #contentcreationtips
