Children's Photography
Photography is an outlet that enables me to express myself. A major obstacle in allowing me to be creative stands less than a one-meter tall and loves to wear just a nappy around the house when it’s hot. I am talking about my almost three-year old daughter who is my ‘model’ when it comes to practicing my photography. For anyone who wants to get started in Children’s Photography enter at your own risk as things never go to plan.

How to turn a Snapshot into a Portrait on your iPhone
When I first got interested in photography it was all film and dark room training. Yes, I know I’m dating myself with that comment, but here’s the thing... that knowledge easily transitions into the digital arena with the basic adjustment tools. And if you’ve never been interested in editing but love to snap pics of the things and people you love it’s important to know how easy it is to turn your snapshots into something special with those same basic tools.

Simple Editing Can Make a Big Difference
I remember finding my mother’s SLR camera when I was a little girl and being completely fascinated by it. That was probably the beginning of my love of photography, even if it did (and sometimes still does) intimidate me. That was back before the days of a D-SLR, so it used actual film, that had to be manually advanced and set. I never did get to use that camera, but I still think of it very fondly, sitting in the corner of the spare bedroom all mysterious and inviting.

Mediocre to Masterpiece
These days, thanks to great photo editing apps, anyone can turn their ho-hum snapshots into frame-worthy photos you’ll be proud to hang on your wall.

There are many apps out there, but for this article I’m going to focus on two editing apps I use on my MacBook Pro to edit photos I took with my Nikon D3200 - a great camera with auto settings for amateurs like me - and my iPhone.

How to Shoot Fashion Content for Instagram
Living in a city such as Manchester, I'm no stranger to shooting with fashion influencers. Shooting with fashion bloggers, influencers and content creators can be a great source of income as a photographer, and, generally speaking, it's a brilliant way of creating a regular and consistent source of income as a freelance photographer.

The Dude Motel
Creativity is a funny, elusive thing. I had always considered myself a creative person, but I had no outlet for it, no creative product I could point to. I play the guitar badly, with no sense of rhythm, and singing was out with my inability to carry a tune. My drawing and painting skills never progressed beyond simple stick figures. But writing. I wanted to be a writer, yet when I tried to put pencil to paper no words would come forth. I would sit quietly, feeling the story, the feeling I wished to capture, but it remained elusively out of reach. I was consumed by fear and couldn't move forward.

Strategies to Win the War of Quality Video Editing
Video editing is no joke, especially in this digital era. An eloquent video that engages the audience, encourages viewers for a CTA (Call-to-Action), and leaves an impact is wanted by every business. I mean who does not want such a compelling video?
