HOW I TRANSFORMED A SMALL ROOM INTO A HOME OFFICE & PHOTOGRAPHY STUDIO

The way we live and work has completely changed over the last decade! Whereas before, going into an office from 9-5 was common place, now more and more people - myself included - are working from home full time.

RECAP: LONDON FOOD PHOTOGRAPHY, FOOD STYLING AND REEL CREATION WORKSHOP
RECAP: LONDON FOOD PHOTOGRAPHY, FOOD STYLING AND REEL CREATION WORKSHOP

As food photographers, food bloggers and food content creators we have to face facts - the social media landscape is changing and with it, how we share content!
