I just saw this shot of mine by accident & ADORE how the designer pops the image with the splash of yellow whilst also tying in the awesome geometric necklace to the background geometric design. Look soooooo effective so I had to share! 🤩
If you’re after a new podcast - Stand Out Life is a podcast dedicated to living boldly in a busy world, with one of my fav clients - psychologist & leadership coach @alihill . I enjoy listening as Ali chats with influential women - and a few good men - about how they live a life of purpose while making progress. She digs into their stories, both the successes and the struggles and in doing so, we get some amazing insights into what it takes to live big and ultimately how they’ve found the wins in this crazy busy world - dive deep into what it takes to live a Stand Out Life! Highly recommended ✅

This shoot was a few years ago but I am using instagram as a visual diary for myself and I had forgotten to share these photos hence posting them now whilst I think of it. Hope you enjoy admiring how some women can so effectively pull off short hair like the singer PINK! Wish I could!!! Next available shoot dates are May 13 or 14 then June 3, 4 or 5. Am playing catch up with shoots for the next couple of months so if you need images, pls book sooner than later to avoid waiting. Winter is the best time to shoot - no sweating!!! 😅☀️🌈🌻

Just a reminder because I care about those in my little network……to make sure you take time out for yourself and look after yourself - whether that be prioritising a good solid sleep or doing yoga, or having a hot bath after a stressful day, a swim in the ocean, socialising with friends, watching the sunset 🌅 whatever self care looks like for you, in this crazy ‘urgency’ culture. Remember businesses still operated in the good old days without email and without social media etc so try not to get swept up in the ‘urgency’ as technology makes life fast anyways. Where possible, stop & breathe and be sure not to neglect the most important thing - your physical & mental health. 🧘♀️🍏🌈🌻☀️

I first photographed @gcsrproperty in 2022 and they returned late last year from some new shots which was great to see how they have grown as a company. Love watching my clients succeed and excel, makes the journey so cool to be a part of 🤩

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!

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
