Yay! I am so thrilled to finally share some shots from my latest marketing photoshoot for a local private music school. It was a whole day brand session with a variety of images - creative photographs of the students, headshots of the school owner and the teachers, behind-the-scenes and inside-the-lessons shots. A fabulous experience for me as a photographer and great results for their marketing campaigns, social platforms and website. The school owner is a woman on fire - she is a loving mum to 3, a talented cellist and pianist, a composer and a business owner. Her vision for the brand shoot was very clear and after we planned and discussed well in advance, I can proudly say "we nailed it!"

Recent brand shoot 📷
Dharma Therapy with Susthama Marian Kim

Susthama works as a psychotherapist/ counselor and supervisor in her private practice based in Watford, UK. 
She is also the Head of the Amida Buddhist Order, which is a small Pure Land Buddhist group in the UK.
She qualified as a psychotherapist/counsellor in Buddhist Psychology in 2011 and is currently undergoing a Supervision qualification at the London School of Psychodrama, however, she has been supervising psychotherapists who trained in Buddhist Psychology for the past five years.

On a personal note, Susthama is a ball of sunshine. She possesses incredible calmness and gentleness. She is a loving mum to two wonderful children.

We did her photoshoot in her comfortable private practice in Watford and created some new imagery for her website. Our goal was to create some warm, inviting photographs full of light and peace that properly display her vision and personality and complement her business.

During the beautiful autumn months of September and October, I started dipping my photographer's toes into personal brand and business photography. Something I quite loved and inspired me deeply. 
And here's a new service that I am now enthusiastically adding to my portfolio. Being a mum of two small children and managing my own business, I know how hard it can be. The struggles, the challenges, the turbulent days where everything seems to be against you. The hopes, successes, and joys that sit on the other side. And the lack of time to accomplish everything at once. But what if someone could help with at least one little thing (which for a business is not little at all) - professional photography that creates visually appealing and inviting images for your business venture. Whether you are a #mumpreneur who makes uniques handmade creations, an artist, a beauty expert, a writer, a counselor, a therapist, a designer, or even a photographer yourself - I've got you. We can elevate your personal brand and tell your business stories together.

Another set of beautiful, warm autumn photos from my recent Autumn Leaves Promo Minis. 🍂  We had so much fun with these two, so much laughter and joy. They were absolute stars that day, and I loved every minute of our photo adventure.

Photo sessions don't have to be posed and stiff. They are not a chore or an annoying task to please mum and dad. Photo sessions with me are relaxed, natural and playful. I capture real smiles, candid laughs and true connection. All through play and fun prompts. Pop me a message to plan yours, I cannot wait to work with you.

"Mommy and me" will forever be one of my favorite moments to photograph 📷 
If you know a mum who would love to update her family album with some autumn photo treasures, please share this over. The colours outside are beautiful, the play and laughter during my sessions are real. The connection is deep and genuine. And the love is in every little moment.

This summer I had the privilege and greatest joy to create some portraits of my grandparents. My family. I used to spend every summer holiday with them, picking up strawberries, sleeping in late, climbing trees, counting stars at night and chasing fireflies. And every winter we would sit together by the old rusty stove, watching grandma knitting and reading stories. Now, I visit them once a year and I cannot help but feel like a child again. My beautiful mother, their daughter, and I felt like we need some portraits of them together... something raw, warm and authentic for the whole family to have and cherish.
How special are these!

When you really really want to be a princess, your great grandmother's curtain magically turns into a veil and your great grandad's old rusty ladder becomes a fairy tale castle.

And your mother can only capture the beautiful fleeting moment with a tiny feeling nostalgia for her own princessy childhood days.

I noticed a few new followers recently and I would like to post something about myself so we can get to know each other. First of all, thank you for following me and if we are yet to have a session together - I am beyond excited for the beautiful ordinary art we can create. Read on and you might learn something new about myself. You are welcome to leave a comment with something that you know about me or about a photo experience we’ve had together. So..

🍃 I am Millie, a mom of 2 cheeky little Ks. I call them Ks because they are Kristian (8) and Kallie (2) and they are truly two magical keys to my heart. Sometimes, quite often, they are 2 keys to a bomb detonator.

🍃 I am originally from Bulgaria - the land of the bluest skies and happy childhoods. And I miss it dearly between each holiday. UK has been my home for 12 years now and I find new things to love here every day.

🍃 I’ve spent many years in the Early Years sector - working with precious little people, cooking mud pies, reading story after story. I’ve always had a deep connection with young children and that helps me in my photography. We just click off and really have lots of laughs. Sorry, mums and dads, not the best singing voice but points for trying.

🍃 Photography has always been a hobby of mine until my daughter was born almost 3 years ago and I decided to dive deeper. So deep that it actually became more than profession. It became a way of life. It’s bringing me so much joy and peace of mind, calmness, inspiration and love. I see moments differently now, I see beauty in chaos, light when it’s dark (quite literally), raw energy in everyday life.

🍃 I like coffee. And cake. And Christmas. And storytelling. And all of Disney movies. I cry every time at the end of Cars (🤷🏻‍♀️). I love dancing and blowing bubbles with my children. Mountains and forests. Long walks. Autumn walks. And long kisses. Dusty bookshelves and great novels. I am not a very sporty person but my oldest is a great young athlete and a super fast runner. And, as a proper mum, I shed a tear at every running competition.

And now it’s your turn to say hello. 🍃

Moments from a recent family photoshoot. What a beautiful mama, a loving father, the cutest little baby boy and a gorgeous location.

Holding their hands as they grow and learn to walk is one of the best moments and milestones we experience as parents. Soon, they’ll be walking on their own, running around, exploring life in every way imaginable and the scary part - they will not need us as much. They’ll be holding our hearts instead. 
So make sure you capture these moments because they are so precious. Booking a photographer is not about social media posts. It’s about stopping time for a fleeting moment and making beautiful memories together.

Part 2. Traditions are at the very heart of our lives. Traditions are the connection between our past and our future, the invisible thread of every culture. And we are all the richer for having our own cherished traditions and values in this colourful world. I might have never been to India but after last Saturday, I feel a step closer. This Indian style baby shower had everything my soul needed - a beautiful mum to be for a model, traditional scents and tastes, colours galore, love and connection, laughter and warmth. It was such a delight to photograph this event and to capture some loving memories for the future generations. So they can carry on with their traditions…

Little family trip to the beach. A day of wildness and fun. 📷🐚
And then it rained again but our hearts are full of sunshine.

A different vibe to my usual style but I really love the feel of it. Their sibling love is so tangible and unique. Proud to be their mama (and their personal photographer 🤣)

Last week I was invited to capture some special moments from this little star’s First Holy Communion. It was an amazing day for the whole family - full of joy and sunshine, a true celebration of faith. The first communion is not just a religious ceremony, it is a right of passage and Ralph was absolutely brilliant. I am so proud and honoured to be part of this wonderful day.

@georginafayscott thank you for inviting me to capture some special moments from this beautiful celebration.
