Portfolio Design
I work with photographers to optimize their portfolios for commercial in-person reviews. Instead of presenting an entire body of work, I help you focus on what the reviewer will want to see, enhancing your chances of positive feedback and potential commissions.
Website Curation
I provide an objective outsider’s perspective that enables photographers to hone their websites and enhance their appeal for prospective clients. Following my mantra of “less is more”, we’ll make it easier for potential commissioners to discover why you might be right for them. This personalised approach can significantly improve the chances of a photographer being selected for more commissions.

Christine provides a comprehensive 360-degree perspective on the photography industry, covering everything from daily operations to client pitching strategies.
Personalized Objectivity
As your ally in this creative venture, I bring an objective perspective that is still sympathetic to your personal vision. My years of experience allow me to cut through the clutter, and focus on showcasing your very best work in a way that genuinely speaks to your audience.
Embrace “Less is More”
Together, let’s embrace the philosophy of “less is more”. I will help you refine how you present your best work, ensuring that every element of your website is a powerful testament to your artistic brilliance. This approach ensures every image counts to maximum effect.
Enhanced User Experience
In a world saturated with information, simplicity is key. I specialise in crafting professional photographic websites that are easy to navigate, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in the brilliance of your work without unnecessary distractions. This ensures an enjoyable and engaging user experience that will live in the memory.
Marketing Plans
I work closely with photographers who may not know quite where to start. Together, we’ll cut through the confusion and develop a detailed marketing plan for the year that takes advantage of the latest technology to increase your visibility. This strategic approach can help you expand your reach, make more impact, and ultimately attract more clients.
Target Audience
I make sure you’re not wasting time chasing the wrong people, by looking closely at defining the potential clients who are most aligned with your style and approach. This allows you to concentrate your efforts where they will stand the most chance of counting, which saves time, money and missed opportunity.
Ongoing Management
We’ll not only make a plan, but create a way to execute it. At the foundation of this will be an efficient database and outreach system that will empower you to effectively reach out to potential clients on a consistent basis without taking over your life. Monthly check-ins will hold you accountable to monitoring progress, addressing issues and keeping everything on track.
Creativity Boost
Most photographers I know encounter creative blocks, and if this happens to you, I can be your sounding board for brainstorming and creative support. This assistance often leads to innovative test shots and fresh ideas, keeping your work dynamic and appealing.
Awards
I assist photographers in preparing and submitting their work for prestigious recognition like The AOP Awards, Sony World Photography Awards and British Journal of Photography Awards. Success in these competitions helps you gain exposure within the industry, which enhances your credibility and leads to more opportunities.
