The Bay Hair Co

I was so thrilled to have the opportunity to photograph The Bay Hair Co again … I first shot this property in March 2019. The Bay Hair Co asked me back again recently, because they’ve added a new member to their team … I took the opportunity to reshoot the interior (as well as getting fresh profile shots).

It was nice to see just how much I have learnt and taught myself in the past 12 months … for the past 7 years that I have had my business I have always offered a lot of different services … which has included marketing, social media managing, graphic design, website building, interior styling and interior design … going with what ever was asked of me by clients, taking what ever work was coming in … and in the past 3 years, as I have switched to part time work (since having my babies) … I just couldn’t do it all anymore … photography was the stand out skill, that I was most needed by my clients for. So I went with that … and honestly it has been the best thing I could of done (and probably should of done a lot earlier) … focusing on photography, has meant learning so so so much in the past few years … for something I have been doing for such a long time, there was still so much to learn … and i’m sure I will always be learning more and more and more … Interior Photography is still my priority, but I have definitely expanding my photography skills to include portrait/candid photography for small business, flat lays, product vignettes … architecture and exteriors … all of these areas helping to make my overall photography skills better … I think my advantage has always been that I come from an interior design background … and can easily switch from stylist to photographer and back again when I need to, but finally focusing on photography as my main work priority has meant a huge difference in the quality of my work, and I couldn’t be happier.
