Meet the members… Celie Nigoumi
I'm Celie, a Brand & Portrait Photographer in Frome, Somerset. I make authentic imagery for independent, creative thinkers who need help to stand out online, whilst becoming a more confident business owner.
What’s Stopping You?
Many of my clients tell me they've thought about hiring a Professional Photographer for years, but have struggled to get over these three hurdles, so I am here to give you the confidence to jump right over them.
“I have no idea what to wear”
I send out a free style guide to all of my clients containing helpful information about the best patterns, shapes and colours to include in your outfit. Alongside posing and preparation advice, it includes details about colour theory, and how to use these principles to best represent your brand. You’re also welcome to send me your top choices on WhatsApp, so I can give you my thoughts on which outfits might be best for our session!
“I just don’t think I look my best right now”
Well, when exactly are you going to look your best? We have always been taught not to be happy with ourselves until we’re thinner, smoother, brighter, less frizzy and more beautiful. But actually, you, just as you are right this second, are amazing and spectacular. Yes, hopefully when you arrive to your shoot you'll have popped on a bit of concealer to hide the enormous that enormous spot that arrived overnight, but you don't need to force a drastic change before we can make gorgeous pictures of you being you!
“I can't afford it”
Professional imagery is by far one of the most important investments if you’re looking to elevate your business. Successful brand recognition relies heavily on consistent, appealing visuals and no-one will help you achieve this better than an experienced photographer who understands you, your short term goals and long term ambitions.
We are too often told that celebrating ourselves is selfish and unnecessary, especially if it costs more than a coffee, but I think it’s incredibly important to take note of our achievements and feel proud of how far we’ve come. I’ve been told that my branding sessions have created confidence that my clients didn’t know they were missing - both in their business and personal life - and that my friend, is invaluable.
