Visual Storytelling

Happy New Year to you all and welcome to the first episode of the visual storytelling podcast for 2026.  

This first episode of the New Year comes a little later than I had planned due to finding myself being wiped out with a chest infection, which is still lingering a little, but don't worry, its not contagious through audio waves, so you're safe.

Now, what I discuss today will hopefully serve of use to get you started this year on the right footing.  3, 2, 1 lets go.

I’m looking to have more guests on the podcast to provide you with more value.  With that in mind, what are some area’s you are  struggling with when it comes to your creative journey that you would like the answers to? Let me know by either leaving a comment on this episode or getting in touch directly.  Equally, if there are aspects of running or building a creative business that you would like discussed, or even if you do it just for the pleasure and would like to delve deeper into something specific, let me know and I’ll see if I can get a guest within that area on the podcast. 

Once again, thank you for lending me your ear, I genuinely appreciate your time, don’t forget to follow the visual storytelling podcast and until next time, 

Be Creative. Be Inspired. Be You.

As a photographer or videographer, all too often we create content for our clients and then neglect documenting our own practices and environments.  Let’s not forget, or under appreciate the power of personal branding.

Welcome to the Visual Storytelling podcast, I’m sure, like me you hear the words personal branding all too often, but what does this truly mean?

This is exactly what I discuss in this episode, but, if you haven't got 5 minutes and 29 seconds to spare, in short personal branding is,
Being recognisable without a logo or name.
Being present; and
Being visible.

For a more in depth breakdown of this, check out this episode.

I have often said that people live vicariously through others. This is supported by the number of reality shows on our TV’s, but this isn’t the only reason why you should be going all in on documentary photography.  

Lets talk about Living Vicariously: Why Reality-Style Content Matters for Businesses and Personal Brands.

What are some area’s you are  struggling with when it comes to your creative journey that you would like the answers to? Let me know by either leaving a comment on this episode or getting in touch directly.
