Beginning as a self-taught individual with an eye for the art, SLM photography has grown from strength to strength over a period of 2 years. With great determination, passion, creativity and a lot of hard work, a hobby turned into a profession and is still aiming high! As a professional freelance photographer and stylist from Shropshire, specialising in not just one particular field of photography but enjoying many, Sophie-Lou Marren expresses the ability to cater for all people’s photography needs. The goal on a photo shoot is to capture the emotion and style of the client as much as possible, nurturing ideas from both photographer and client whilst making them feel at ease and securing their trust in order to get those all important results. Always trying to come up with original concepts, and even re-engineering cliché, SLM’s use of post digital editing pushes the boundaries of the average portrait. Setting up! Juggling a full time job at the same time as realising a dream is never easy, at times stressful, but always rewarding - the hope that one day all the hard work will be worth the effort. Making the first steps to building the business. Extensive networking has rapidly generated a fantastic amount of interest and contacts. It’s a great reason to socialise and get out a lot more, naturally creating a fan base/group/online community and a need for a website as a place to display testimonials. Obtaining clients and bringing together a portfolio is part of the challenge and the bigger the clientele and portfolio gets, the more people recommend SLM photography to friends, family and associates - word of mouth encourages more widespread awareness of the work. As they say, actions speak louder than words… keep producing quality work, it will automatically speak for itself. Taking the next step to make the set-up that little bit more professional, SLM effected a fully-equipped studio in a unique and beautiful rural location. In a continuing bid to secure more clients, an extended range of promotional materials and information packs are now available. Slowly but surely, SLM photography is gaining popularity and a great repertoire, ensuring great services and customer satisfaction, which is key to maintaining any business, large or small! SLM photography has worked for model agencies, record labels, amateur fashion designers, Tony & Guy catwalk presentations and competitions as well as commission-based work for sole traders, and Wolverhampton Civic music venues and has been published in Bizarre Magazine and Illusion Magazine, thriving to continue to extend the list! “Believe in yourself completely, else no one else will! Value family, friends, acquaintances and those who support and help on the way, there’s only so much you can do yourself and remember business only happens if you make it happen! … Bring Life To Images! “Thankyou for visiting!SLM photography @ Heart Of Stone Studio COTSBROOK FARM BUILDINGS, HIGFORD, NR SHIFNAL, TF11 9ES [email protected] 07527294255
