My first meaningful job was in marketing. This has proven to be a solid foundation which has helped me time and time again throughout my career. But the 9-5 paradigm didn’t work for me as I developed my passion for creativity. And once I became a mother I knew change was needed so I could live the life I wanted.

So I took a leap of faith.

Setting up a business as a single mum, with no capital behind me and zero savings was a risk. But I just knew it was the right decision. I suppose that’s the thing about a leap of faith, you don’t have all the answers. But I cannot imagine my life now if I had not taken that chance. I developed a successful wedding photography business in 2013, that was entirely booked out during the first year and has seen exponential growth over the past decade. The aim was to create a company that not only provided an income but also meaning. A business designed around my lifestyle and my family. Family comes first for me, every time but that doesn’t mean I couldn’t strive for professional success.

I’m proof that if you put the work in, set achievable goals and strategies, you can live the life that you’ve always dreamed of. I can’t wait to show you how…
