Hi, I'm Vicki.
Nine years ago I was a handmade business owner struggling to take quality photos for my online stores.
I knew it was important to have a high standard of photos for online selling, but no matter how hard I tried my photos just didn't turn out the way I wanted. Consequently, my views, sales and features were not what I wanted either.
I quickly learned it was my photos letting me down and set about improving them.
Already having an eye for detail and being a keen amateur photographer, I had a head start, but I invested in a Photography for Business & Blogging course as well as an Advanced Photography course to help me on my way.
Before too long I was getting compliments not only on my products, but on my photos as well.
Vicki - Maker & Photographer
In late 2018 I decided to help other makers with their photos by providing simple and easy to use product photography information that is directly relevant to handmade business owners. I wanted to help eliminate the frustration and overwhelming feeling that often goes with DIY product photography.
My goal is for makers to enjoy taking photos, rather than it feeling like a chore.
