Are you feeling your photography and words are a little lack lustre? That perhaps you’re not getting the best engagement through your social media and Blog posts like you should be? Engaging words and photos are at the heart of true Story Telling. It’s how we attract our audience, connect people with our work and make a great impression. In this 1-Day Workshop we help you learn how to achieve greater reach with your creative flair using words and images. We show you how much more effective your engagement can be when you have a strong voice. Make the content of your blog posts and social media truly count and attract more people to your Site.

Taking beautiful photos or writing heartfelt words is just one aspect of attracting your audience. Making yourself heard through effective engagement is what builds your community and makes people resonate with what you do. We teach you what’s behind developing a stronger voice in order to make your creative flair shine.

Held on location at the boutique grounds of renowned Interior Stylist Lynda Gardener’s The Estate, Trentham, our time together will be spent shooting Story scenes in the harvest garden and mini orchard and a rustic feast from our styled table setting in the white-walled barn. We go through practical exercises that teach you how to best connect the image and the words to create a rich visual narrative and ensure the story in your scene is the Hero.

Are you feeling intimidated with your photography & writing skills? That what you’re producing doesn’t quite make the mark? What’s setting you back? Is it a lack of confidence? Not sure how to link the story and the images to make your communication more effective? Our purpose is to go back to basics in order to make you more confident with your camera and writing skills so you can be proud of your work. Get ready to sharpen your creative eye and use your words to create greater engagement with your feed.
