IT FELT REALLY EMPOWERING, FROM START TO FINISH

IT WAS AN ABSOLUTE PLEASURE

"I'd been using the same couple of pictures throughout my website and relying on free stock photos so when I saw Jane's photos by Bex on Instagram I was impressed and felt optimistic that Bex could help me.

During our initial zoom call I felt that we got on well and the way Bex spoke about how she works got me excited, so I decided to book her Spectrum package.

I felt well prepared for the shoot so I didn't feel too nervous. I was really excited about having a variety of new photos to choose from.

The whole experience with Bex was brilliant! I laughed pretty much the whole day and felt comfortable posing for photos in various set-ups, including a bathtub(!), which was testament to her ability to make me feel at ease.

My favourite part was in the garden because it felt really empowering having photos without my wig on. It helps that one of them was picked up by Photo Vogue! To think for years I was fearful of being seen without my wig on, which makes these photos even more special. Bex truly captured my joy, what an amazing day it was!

Receiving my gallery was like Christmas Day!  I absolutely love everything; my photos, showreel and Bex's help with my website too! I'm continuing to update my website with her advice and I've been using the photos on my Instagram page already too, it's so hard to pick a favourite. I can't wait to use all of my new images for press contacts, my podcast, and future digital products.

If you choose Bex as your photographer, she will help you to get a better understanding of your business and will put you at ease during the shoot itself. You'll be really pleased with the finished product and most importantly you will have a great time!

I just want to say a huge thank you, from the first consultation to working through my brand workbook, to the photoshoot itself, it's been an absolute pleasure working with you Bex x"

BEST SHOOT WE'VE EVER DONE, AMAZING IN SO MANY WAYS!

"I had no idea how to go about a brand photography shoot, but I was excited to work on something new that had great potential to help my client's marketing campaigns get more traction.  We had a short timescale and pressure to deliver on a limited budget. 

We chose Bex for her amazing style of work, her infectious passion, personality and confidence.  Plus her confidence in me and huge support of my creative ideas.  We quickly forged a great working relationship, feeling totally on the same page.  I was impressed by her flair for creativity and persistence to get the job done to the best of her ability.  And the fact she was a mum and we were working with kids as models.

I was worried about how we'd get it all done in time, especially when working with kids, and whether convincing the client to share our vision would pay off.  

 

Bex worked so hard, kept calm, got the job done and was professional.   It was fantastic to see her work and watch her creativity and energy.  I didn't feel like we compromised on anything!  Everyone was buzzing throughout, it was exciting to see the shots through the lens and we got everything we needed :)

 

The images totally exceeded expectations.  They make my job a lot easier and I am so proud of the way the images came out, they represent the brand perfectly.  I have even had other brands ask which photographer we use, which has never happened to me before.

The client was delighted, they said the photos were absolutely brilliant and it was the "best shoot we've ever done" and even mentioned that they were so glad they didn't lose the opportunity to work with Bex as they had initially been hesitant about the investment and new ideas.

 

If you're thinking about a brand shoot, hire Bex, you will love her and her work!  Don't hesitate, because she will give you 100%.

 

Thank you Bex, you literally are amazing in so many ways and I am so glad that I found you x"

THE WHOLE EXPERIENCE WORKING WITH BEX WAS BRILLIANT!

EVERYTHING WAS SO EASY AND STREAMLINED.

"Before my photoshoot with Bex I didn't feel particularly confident shouting about my services, but these days it's more important than ever for me to stand out so I can make a good living as a translator.  

 

I'd never had any photos done for my business before but my business mentor pointed out that if I wanted to be seen as "personable", I should probably have some more photos of myself online. 

I was excited to work with Bex, I knew that she would be able to take photos that really matched my new branding and show off my personality and business. Plus I loved the sound of all the extras like the showreel and social media plan.

The whole experience working with Bex was brilliant, everything was so easy and streamlined.  We had everything in place on the day (including the weather!), which made it all run nice and smoothly.

I was really nervous about looking natural when smiling but Bex made me feel so relaxed and at ease, I feel like that really shows in the photos.

I enjoyed the shoot so much and I love my new images and showreel, they've definitely helped my business! I've already had loads of compliments when people spotted my new headshot in various places. I can't wait for my new website to be finished so I can show more of them off.

If you book Bex for your brand photoshoot you'll have a super fun time and Bex will take amazing photos of you and your surroundings, workplace, etc."

Samantha_Bexphoto-01203.jpg

"I was nervous about not being good in front of a camera but excited about getting a few pictures I would be happy with!

Bex was lots of fun and very easy to work with.  She seemed instantly tuned in to the vibe I wanted which made me feel relaxed, the time flew by.  

I am delighted with my images and have already been recommending Bex to my friends.  She is a dream to work with, do your business a favour and book her in!  

 

It was a great, fun experience Bex, big love to you and your lens!"

I REALLY DISLIKE HAVING MY PHOTO TAKEN BUT BEX WORKED THROUGH THIS, MADE IT ENJOYABLE AND GOT SOME GREAT PHOTOS!

"I didn't know much about brand photography at all but having seen loads of Bex's work, I was very confident in her achieving a good result to replace my old, poor quality photos.

 

Despite not being particularly comfortable in front of a camera, this was dealt with, with sensitivity and fun.  I REALLY dislike having my photo taken but Bex was able to work through this, make it enjoyable and I am really happy with my photos. I have had some amazing comments about them already.

 

Bex is very good at what she does.  She doesn't take generic photos but creates something unique to set your business apart from others, a more personal insight into what you do and who you are. 

 

It's really opened my eyes to the value of high quality brand photography."

Ashley Sim, Dentist and Practice Owner, Crowborough & Cranbrook

BEX IS LOVELY AND WARM TO WORK WITH AND SO TALENTED!

"I know Brand Photography is a useful tool for marketing but I had a lack of up to date pro headshots before my shoot with Bex.

I was feeling nervous about being photographed in public, I thought I'd feel really self-conscious but it was fun, easy and relaxed, exactly what you'd hope a photo shoot would be.  We laughed a lot!

My favourite part of the experience was Bex spotting spontaneous moments to get a great shot.  She even included my bike, I love getting around on it, but I'd never thought to have it in the shots like that!

I love my new images, I think they've really refreshed my social media content and revived my marketing!

If you're thinking about a brand photo shoot, I'd say go for it, Bex will put you at ease, make you genuinely laugh with her honest approach and you'll have so many amazing shots."

"We knew how important brand photography was but didn't know the best way to achieve it for our brand. We have images of our events but we didn't have any that really reflected our personality and day-to-day business.

We felt really excited about our discovery call with Bex! It was great to spend time working on our business and really thinking about our core messages and what we wanted to convey in our photos. It got us thinking about our brand properly for the first time in a very long time!

We have worked with Bex on campaigns for brands so we knew how amazing she was & that she would have lots of brilliant ideas!  

We were definitely feeling a little nervous about being in front of the camera, all eyes on us!!  But we were also very excited to see Bex work her magic and to get her direction on the types of shots that would work well for us.

We LOVED working with Bex!!  She completely put us at ease with lots of laughter on our shoot - we had so much fun.  She was also incredibly organised with all of the pre-planning and logistics in the run up.  The photos blew us away and she really captured the spirit of our brand!

 

I think our favourite part was the winning combination of Bex's absolute attention to detail in the planning stages as well as her creativity.  She really took the time to understand our business and made suggestions that we'd never considered, Bex really did go over and above to exceed our expectations!  It was all so smooth and we really enjoyed our shoot! 

We LOVE our new images!  We would not hesitate to recommend Bex and would encourage every business to really invest in themselves and put their trust in Bex who is a true EXPERT in her field. She goes above and beyond to create beautiful brand photography and makes you think about your business in a whole new light.

We want to say a HUGE thank you to you Bex, we absolutely loved working with you and we're over the MOON with our photos."

BEX MADE IT SO EASY AND RELAXED

"I hate posing and smiling for photos but Bex made it so easy and relaxed.  It was a great experience and my new photos are fantastic, perfect for my business profile image.

Bex is very talented and definitely worth going for it, excellent brand photography, I highly recommend booking Bex for your business."

I EVEN FORGOT WE WERE DOING A PHOTOSHOOT - IT FELT

LIKE I WAS JUST CHATTING WITH A FRIEND. 

"From the moment my 'Thank you for booking' chocolate bar arrived in the post, I knew I'd picked the right photographer for my brand photoshoot!

I'm not a confident person in front of the camera, but Bex put me at ease before, during and after the shoot.  At one point I even forgot we were doing a photoshoot as it felt like I was just chatting with a friend.

I love how Bex got to know me and my brand before the shoot - she did her research and asked for my thoughts on what I wanted to get across in my photos.

I'm so pleased with the results of the photos, and I love the showreel and social media plan.

I would thoroughly recommend Bex as a photographer and a great person to work with."

"I chose Bex as my brand photographer because of her portfolio as well as her infectious enthusiasm for her work and her friendly personality!

Before the shoot I was nervous about how I would look in photos and having my photo taken in public but I was excited about the end result.

I thoroughly enjoyed the photoshoot and Bex was able to put me at ease quickly, it was an excellent experience! It felt fun and there was lots of laughter.  I was actually sad when it ended and Bex had to go home!

I love the images so much. The photos have been useful for the PR agency I've enlisted, as we have professional photographs for our media pitches.

Bex is great fun to work with, and the images she has created are beautiful. A professional brand shoot with Bex is definitely worth the investment."

I COULD TRUST BEX AND THAT IS THE BEST WIN!  

"I knew that brand photography was great for building your personal brand but I didn't have any professional photos of myself.  I am my brand and so this was a key missing piece for me!

I chose Bex as my Brand Photographer because I liked her portfolio of work as well as how she researched me before our call and was able to immediately suggest some branding tips to help my business.

I felt managed the whole time working with Bex, the call two weeks before helped me think about what photos I wanted and how they could be achieved.  Bex was really vibrant on the day which helped me manage my energy, we both knew what needed to be done, but none of it felt awkwardly staged!

My favourite part was getting the photos and amazing show-reel!  Honestly I enjoyed the experience from beginning to end, I felt I could trust Bex and that is the best win!  She was great!

I absolutely LOVE my photos and graphics!  I had a call just this morning and the response I got was "wow look at your gorgeous pictures!!"  I love them and to hear that clients, friends & colleagues love them too is just the cherry on the top!

If you need some photos for your brand Bex is your gal - hands down.  She is really organised, able to help you brainstorm what photos would work for your brand, and is able to capture so many different aspects of your business!

Bex thank you so much, I feel privileged to have had you as my photographer and will definitely be using you again!"

"This was our third photoshoot with Bex so we were really excited - bring it on!

The photos show my personality and relate to our mantra of working with undaunted, bold and energetic female founders. 

I love working with Bex, she is so easy to get on with and a perfectionist like me.  We bounce off one another and create something really fun each and every time.

For me, my favourite part is the collaboration, the creativity, the real team spirit that we've created having worked together on several shoots.  We use our photos each and every day across all of our social media and spanning a team of 15.  They really help with our business challenges when it comes to converting.

If you want something that brings YOU to life, working with a down to earth, fun and sassy photographer, then look no further than Bex!  She's brilliant!

Bex is so creative, if you are serious about your brand, then invest in Bex.

I FOUND THE WHOLE EXPERIENCE TO BE INFORMATIVE, ORGANISED, CREATIVE & SUPPORTIVE

I knew nothing about Brand Photography before speaking to Bex, I was going through a few business challenges including change of ownership and a saturated marketplace.  I was apprehensive before my enquiry call but chose Bex as my brand photographer based on her portfolio and Instagram account.

Before my shoot I was very nervous about being the centre of attention but excited to make this a family affair and excited to have a fresh restart.

I found the whole experience working with Bex to be informative, organised, supportive, creative and knowledgeable.  I had more fun than I expected and found we had a common ethos.

My images are great!  They show different elements of my business from producing our own products to our treatments and studio as well as our workshop events. She also managed to convey our caring ethos. 

Bex is fun, professional, organised, enthusiastic and creative and adds so much extra value!

THE WHOLE EXPERIENCE WAS REALLY FUN & MY PHOTOS ARE BEAUTIFUL!

"I knew very little about Brand Photography before speaking to Bex, I was concerned about how to present myself on social media and I knew Bex could help me with this after my brand review call.

I chose Bex as my Brand Photographer because she is a trusted friend and I liked the quality of work seen from other shoots she's done.

I was unsure what to expect and how the photos would come out but the whole experience working with Bex was really fun, my favourite part was taking all the photos in the countryside near my office.

Bex is a really lovely lady who has a clear vision but was also happy to take on board my ideas.

ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC - COULDN'T BE HAPPIER!

DSC_2216.jpg

"Bex did a branding shoot for my business, which is a café. I had a couple of meetings with Bex beforehand where we worked on what my brand and business represent and what customers I want to encourage. Before the shoot Bex went through in detail what shots she would be creating and what I should prepare beforehand, from the clothing I would wear to the food and drinks that I should prepare. In doing this I felt really prepared and it meant that on the day we didn't waste anytime.

On the day of the shoot I was quite nervous about having my photo taken but Bex really put me at ease. She was so friendly and professional that it made everything fun and it all went so smoothly.

The photos and graphics that Bex has created for me are absolutely fantastic and are really going to help me with building my brand and promoting my business online and on social media sites. I couldn't be happier with the results and am so grateful for everything Bex has done for me. I would definitely recommend her to anyone that wants some help working on their brand and for extremely professional and creative photos."

Hannah P. from Hannah's at Soulfit, Lewes

THE WHOLE EXPERIENCE WAS SUCH A JOY!

I'M ALREADY PLANNING MY NEXT SHOOT WITH BEX!

"I didn't know a lot about Brand Photography before speaking to Bex. She was recommended to me as I was frustrated about not having the right photography in place to build our business.

The whole experience working with Bex was such a joy!
 
We laughed from the moment we met, it was all so easy and the session seemed to fly by. My favourite part was how well prepared she was. Bex really takes her job seriously and puts so much thought into creating a brand photography experience.
The images and show reel Bex created have definitely helped with my business challenges and will play a fundamental role in us being able to get our brand out there and stand out from other coaching businesses - of which there are many.
Bex is a consummate professional, with a naughty sparkle in her eye and so much fun to work with! I'llllll be back - thinking about a Spring shoot with Bex - maybe somewhere more rural next time!!!

"Bex came highly recommended and listened to us about what we wanted before talking to us about ways we could help make the business more visible, it clearly showed she had done her research on us. She then gave us lots of information about what she could do and ways her branding photography would help us with the challenge of getting more visible and attracting new clients.

She's very organised and professional. She really listened to what we wanted and gathered lots of information from us. She also gave us lots of advice & info about how the shoot day would go, so we were all prepared. She made us feel at ease and relaxed. She has captured our brand and values beautifully and we had a lot of fun working with her.

We absolutely love everything we have received. The images are exactly what we were after and really capture our brand and values. The showreel has been a big success. We have started implementing the social media plan and we've already noticed a big increase in the amount of people viewing them.

I would definitely recommend booking Bex. She is a very talented photographer with a great eye for small details and capturing natural photographs. She is super friendly and easy going, so makes you feel comfortable in front of the camera.  Our photos are creative and professional yet personal - exactly what we needed!

We even enlisted extra help from Bex when it came to implementing our social media plan and getting to grips with Canva. It was so worth the one to one help. We learnt so much in an hour and are much more confident in how to use our wonderful new images."

Laura at Accounting Now, Uckfield

"We absolutely loved working with Bex on the Kickers campaign photographs.  She really captured the spirit of the brand and produced a collection of stunning photographs that exceeded our expectations. 

The feedback from Kickers was simply 'WOW' and we can't wait to work with her again in the future."

"I booked Bex as I had seen the branding work she's been doing.  Before the first call I was excited to chat about our new projects and learn how to promote our holiday let.  Bex had really good ideas and I love the photos she takes.

I trusted Bex 100% and felt very confident that she could see what I hoped to achieve and that she would get amazing photos.  

Bex is very approachable and extremely helpful with fab ideas, the photos are exactly what I had hoped for, we love them!  She has an amazing eye for the best photos, she is very friendly , approachable and will get your vision."

I found the whole experience amazing, Bex is so easy to talk to.  Her critique was clear and to the point, she also has an amazing way of communicating strengths as well as aspects that could use more work.  I never felt criticised or had my ego bruised, in fact I walked away feeling so much more confident.

My favourite part was having a laugh during our session, it made it a really enjoyable experience, especially seeing as they can sometimes be a bit awkward.  I was so lost going into our session but afterwards I felt like I had a clear plan to work with.

I feel that it's absolutely helped with my business, I feel a lot calmer and know what I need to do going forward.

If you were to recommend Bex to your best friend, what would you say?

I know a fabulous, down to earth and incredible photographer and I feel you can really benefit from working with her.  She is just fantastic! Thank you for helping me Bex!

Claire M

Bex was super fun and easy to talk to, and most importantly incredibly helpful. She helped me see some things I hadn’t noticed before which have really helped to tie my brand together.  She also gave me some insightful things to think about regarding my business and some good ideas of directions I could go with it.

I have only gotten through fixing about half of what we talked about but my brand already looks so much more polished.  She has such a gift!

I would absolutely recommend Bex and already have!

"I was worried that I wouldn't like any of my photos - or rather, that I wouldn't like the way I looked in any of my photos, but I loved them!

Bex is really friendly, and easy to chat to, she has a great way of putting you at ease, even if you're not used to or keen on having your photo taken!  She takes time to understand your business, preferences and personality, and has great ideas about how to make your photos work for you - including what to wear, flattering angles and how to showcase the features of your brand!"

"I have always tried to avoid having my photo taken, whenever I get asked to have a portrait shot of myself I squirm a little and always end up pulling some goofy faces or seem to close my eyes when the camera clicks! 


However, the lovely Bex made me feel so relaxed and within seconds came this lovely photo which I can’t believe I am saying this...but I love it."

"I was worried I would feel awkward and unable to pose naturally.  However, Bex made me feel so comfortable and at ease it felt so relaxing through out the shoot!  I warmed up in no time!

My favourite part was getting to hang out with her for the afternoon and try all of her creative ideas!

Book Becky! She's not only amazing at photography but she's lovely too. She listens to your needs as well as having creative ideas of her own.  Thank you Bex!
