If you feel too nervous & self conscious to get infront of a camera, this podcast is for you - See podcast link in bio…
In this episode, Sharon sits down with Shae Giles Bruton, the creative force behind Shae Style Photography.
With almost 30 years behind the camera, Shae has an incredible ability to help business owners move past the awkwardness, insecurity and overthinking — and show up as themselves.
Because a great brand shoot isn’t simply about looking good.
It’s about letting people see who they’re actually doing business with.
And in a world increasingly filled with AI-generated content, that human connection may matter more than ever.
In this episode we cover:
• Why even confident women can freeze in front of a camera
• The insecurities almost every woman brings into a photoshoot
• Why authenticity matters more than looking perfect
• How the right photographer brings your personality and energy to life
• Why AI may actually make real photography and human connection more valuable
• How professional imagery builds trust before someone ever speaks to you
• Why your photoshoot can create clarity around your personal brand
• The role of clothing, colour, hair, makeup and styling
• Shae’s simple “emu” posing trick for a stronger photo
• Why old photos can quietly hold your brand back
• How to show your personality even if you’re naturally quieter or more introverted
Key insights:
• People want to know the human behind the business
• Your energy matters more than perfection
• Confidence often comes through the experience of being seen
• You don’t need to become someone else for the camera
• As AI grows, authenticity and trust become even more valuable
Your brand doesn’t need a more polished version of you.

Shae had been recommended to me, and I had used some her high-quality images in my work as a designer well before I contacted her. So, I had high hopes and expectations. From the moment we first spoke, it was obvious Shae was creative, talented and enthusiastic. This first impression lasts, it is exactly who Shae is, dynamic in personality, very professional to associate with, and clearly extremely capable in her chosen field. Our experience with Shae was excellent, and so were the results.

Shae Giles excels in bringing a brand, and personal profile, to life. She expertly communicates through photography and visual storytelling that deeply connects a brand with its audience. Shae understands the vital part imagery and photography play in aligning a brand’s vision with it’s communication. From the moment you engage Shae in your brand vision, she adds rich value from research to location scouting, venue negotiation, wardrobe advice and expert direction right throughout your shoot. she’s also a creative unicorn offering impeccable and natural hair and makeup services. As a brand strategist, I’ve briefed many brand photographers and creatives and Shae just gets it. She’s responsive, efficient and one of the loveliest people to spend time with. I highly recommend Shae for any aspect of brand photography, styling and visual communication.

Shae, I’m so glad I’ve met you. You are an amazing talent with a beautiful personality. Your professionalism and creativity is second to none. I will never forget this experience. Your relaxed nature made me feel so comfortable. Thank you again for the effort you’ve invested in my shoot, it’s made me feel so positive about the start of my journey. Thank you so much for the photos, they are amazing and you are.

Before having photography done with Shae, I literally had just a shell of a website. But that all changed after my profile and product shots at her studio, where she captured the essence of my branding and vision. Shae takes your vision and propels it the the next level, carefully considering lighting, positioning and the requirements of banner and image sizes. All that plus she’s a talented makeup artist who brings out the good bits and covers up the bad bits (Photoshop helps too!) Thank you Shae — you’re amazing!
Tania Hearn
I absolutely loved working with shae, she is extremely talented and creative and was able to capture the true essence of my team for our staff photos. We could not be happier with the results Shae achieved, she really is extremely good at what she does and has a true love of photography. Thank you Shae for being so amazing! x
