“I wanted to pass on my sincere thanks for a very profound session yesterday. Before the session, I was wondering if we would have anything to talk about but it turned out to be like a tsunami of things that were both in the foreground and background. Many thanks for all your support. It makes a big difference.”

"As a wedding photographer, I knew I needed to show up with great images myself for my clients to like and trust me. I also knew I wanted to show up authentically in my images and to like myself in them. I knew I was in good hands with Carola, as she’d taken my picture before and I'd loved every bit of the experience and my photos. And this time was no different! Carola put me at ease from the start and directed me every step of the way that I didn't have the mental space to feel nervous. From the images, you can tell we were having a ball too! I suffer from bad eczema on my face, neck, arms and hands, so this is always a worry for me, but you'd never even know that my skin was having a bad day! I LOVE my images! Carola's not just a photographer, she's some kind of magician as well!"
“I worked with Carola for a year and found her coaching expertise invaluable in my transition from a permanent employee of a company to a self-employed professional. Carola helped me think about and establish boundaries around my work and put in place effective structures for the necessary administrative tasks. I now follow the monthly processes she helped me define and feel that as a result, the administration of my business runs smoothly. In addition to her practical suggestions and help, I am also very grateful for Carola's insight at a deeper level. For example, she identified areas of interpersonal relations in the context of my work that have the potential to cause difficulty and challenged me to consider different ways of managing these. During that year working with Carola, I’ve grown in confidence and self-assuredness in my professional life, and I enjoy the positive knock-on effects on my personal life. I consider my year of work with Carola to have been extremely beneficial and would whole-heartedly recommend her to others.”

“I know I have bags of personality but in all the years I've had my photo taken, nothing has fully captured my true nature. Yesterday was a day of a little bit of pampering, a lot of confidence-boosting and finally a picture where I could step out of the photo and you'd know - that's her. Carola really knows how to get the best out of people. Try it, you'll love it.”
“Carola really took the time to understand what I was looking for and advise me on how to pose to get the best shots. I'm using the images on LinkedIn and my website and I’m totally in love with them. Seeing myself in that way has been a turning point for me. My confidence had been low and I was really doubting myself. It's fascinating how powerful this has been for me. I've just finished writing my LinkedIn Bio which I'm delighted with – it's kick-ass! So thanks again this has meant more to me than a set of photos. I highly recommend Carola.”

“I had the most amazing experience at Carola's beautiful studio. She knows just how to get the very best out of you, whilst ensuring you are calm and relaxed the whole time. I was able to view my photographs from the shoot this morning and was absolutely blown away by them. The pictures are stunning. I can't quite get over how fabulous they are. I thoroughly recommend the entire experience. Carola is not just an amazing photographer but a wonderful person too. Five-star treatment from a five-star lady!”

“Being photographed by Carola is a really positive, connecting experience. As a therapist, I definitely wanted natural photos of me – creating a feeling of warmth, connection and professionalism. She took the interest and time to really find out about my private practice and encouraged me to create a shared mood board on Pinterest, which we referred to throughout the shoot. I felt she really genuinely cared about getting the best result possible. I'm delighted with the finished result!”
“The photoshoot was so much fun! Carola guides you through it with all her professionalism – she is so good at using all the background information she has collected in your design session to relax you so that she can capture the real, authentic and relaxed you. From the moment you decide to have your portraits taken to when you receive your stunning photos, and beyond, Carola is there with you, every step of the way.”
