  • Food writer's personal branding photoshoot review

    Dominique Woolf | The Woolfs Kitchen

    “I recently had a photoshoot with Lisa and I couldn't be happier with the result. The photos are brilliant - I love the lighting and the finish on them. They look natural yet glossy at the same time. They also fulfil the brief perfectly (I wanted fun, friendly and approachable) and somehow Lisa did this. We had so many to choose from. One of the best photoshoots I've ever had.”

  • Female business owner's personal branding photoshoot review

    Seyda Karimpour | Seasons of Work

    “I did a personal branding shoot with Lisa and absolutely loved how the photos came out! They're some of my favourite images I've ever had taken of me. Lisa is brilliant at making you feel comfortable and the whole process is so smooth and professional. I'm usually quite harsh on myself when I see photos of me but I instantly loved them and I think that a lot of it was down to how comfortable I felt on the day! I'd highly recommend having your brand shoot with Lisa”.

  • Female business coach's personal branding photoshoot review

    Dannielle Lecointe | IMPower Her

    “Receiving my personal brand images from Lisa was like receiving a gift I got excited to open. The shoot was fun, creative and so comfortable and you could see all those aspects in the images. Lisa took time to insure the space would work well for what I needed and in line with what I wanted. The time taken in planning, prepping and executing was awesome! I definitely recommend having a personal brand shoot with Lisa!”

  • celebrant's personal branding photoshoot review

    Alex Collis | Humanist Celebrant

    “Lisa was brilliant. As someone who doesn't naturally enjoy having their photo taken, and often feels self-conscious, she really put me at ease and took some absolutely brilliant shots. Exactly what I was looking for, and I felt that she really 'got' what I was aiming for. This is largely because she prepares so well for a shoot. She asks all the right questions, and really does her homework beforehand. For example, she found the perfect venue for us to shoot in, that had exactly the look I wanted, with lots of colour - and she spent time beforehand scouting the local area for outdoor shots to match. Everything happened how and when Lisa said it would, and actually the final gallery was delivered sooner than I expected. 100% recommendation if you are looking for a fun, relaxed and totally personal photoshoot.”

  • Artist's personal branding photoshoot review

    Jacqueline Wagner | Way Over Wonderful

    “Absolutely fantastic mini branding shoot with Lisa! The whole experience was delightful. With those excellent photos, I feel much more confident to show my face online! Over the years I had several attempts at getting a decent photo for my website, but Lisas are definitely the best. So much so, that I bought all 14 photos Lisa had sent to choose from.
    I loved:
    - Before the shoot, Lisa sent me a prep document, that was super helpful to choose the right kind of outfit and make sure the photos are successful.
    - Throughout the shoot Lisa was great at creating a relaxed and fun atmosphere.
    - Resulting in fantastic photos, that are much better than hoped for.
    Thank you so much Lisa!”

  • speech therapist's personal branding photoshoot review

    Ceylan Mustafa | Play on Words Speech & Language Therapy

    “Thank you Lisa for a great experience during my mini branding session. I wanted to get some images of myself that were professional yet fun and playful as this is relevant to my brand. Lisa's shooting style is fun and relaxed. She helped me prepare by sending a guide beforehand and sending me a lovely text on the day of the shoot. Lisa asked me what I wanted to get out of the session. As well as listening and incorporating my idea of what props I wanted to use in my photos, she had lots of ideas for poses and chose great locations to shoot in. My photos have come out exactly how I wanted and Lisa has been friendly and informative throughout. My family members have also commented on how lovely the photos are. As a small business, it can be daunting putting yourself out there as the face of your brand. However professional photos make a difference. Thank you Lisa!”

  • Company Director's personal branding photoshoot review

    Michele Anikitou | Reldm Ltd

    “I recently had the pleasure of working with Lisa at self made and seen for a branding photo shoot, and I couldn't be happier with the results! From start to finish, the experience was professional and enjoyable. Lisa has an exceptional eye for detail and managed to capture exactly what we discussed in our brief and beyond. Her research and planning clearly showed she knew exactly what she was doing. I highly recommend Lisa to anyone looking for a branding photographer. I’m absolutely thrilled with my pictures and can’t wait to start sharing them. A huge thank you!”

  • yoga instructor's personal branding photoshoot review

    Julie Gilby-Batt

    “Lisa goes above and beyond any photographer I have ever worked with. She made herself available before the shoot day to help me prepare, discuss ideas and make sure we were on the same page. (She also has experience in brand design which means she brings some really useful insight to the process.) This made me feel excited and confident going into the shoot. On the day she was friendly, hospitable, patient and has a real eye for capturing the image you are after. She was very efficient after the shoot in getting all the shots uploaded for me to look through and getting my shots edited. I cannot recommend her highly enough.”

  • Chef's personal branding photoshoot review

    Lisa Violino | Knolita Cooks

    “Had an absolute blast working with Lisa on my 'Starter Branding Portrait Session'.
    From the initial consultation call to choosing the right locations, it was all really well planned. I was sent a pre-shot check list and information about what to expect and bring. Whilst I'm not usually a fan of having my picture taken, its so important for a small business to show themselves as authentically as possible, Lisa took the time to understand what I wanted to achieve. I am really pleased with the results. Will definitely recommend Self Made and Seen.”

    Ramona Tipnis

    “It was a great session with Self Made and Seen. Highly recommend and I came away with some great photos. You can’t tell I hate the camera from the photos. Thank you Lisa for making it such an enjoyable experience despite the weather, which by the way is again not apparent from the photos. Lisa is a star!”

    “Lisa’s communication prior to the day was excellent, I was allergic to having my photo taken but felt prepared. During the photoshoot, I felt confident that Lisa would capture the photos I needed, and was delighted when I received them as there were so many variations to choose from … Lisa made the whole experience easy, I have an excellent set of images that I can use for my new business.”

    Ela Teague | Cook Eat Joy

    “I had a wonderful mini Christmas shoot with Lisa. Lisa was really professional and thorough in her approach with a plan before the shoot day and discussed use of clothing, props, and types of shots. On the day Lisa made me feel relaxed and comfortable and made it much easier to have the photos taken. I was incredibly happy with the end result of photos and how versatile they are. I have been able to use them in many ways. I would definitely recommend a photo session with Lisa.”
