40 OVER 40 women in Business Portrait Experience with John Ferguson

Why aren't businesswomen in their 40s, 50s, 60s, and 70s represented in our media? Would you like to change this by stepping forward or nominating someone close to you with a great business journey story to tell? 

Well, now's your opportunity to participate in my 40 OVER 40 Women in Business portrait experience. I'm photographing 40 businesswomen aged 40+ for a special end-of-year gala exhibition. 

These unique, one-of-a-kind glossy magazine photo shoots will highlight women who would like to tell their inspiring business stories but would also like to be pampered and made to feel and look gorgeous while starring in your own personal photo shoot.

If you're this kind of woman, ask yourself: when was the last time a top professional photographer, someone who's photographed Supermodels, sports stars, and international film and music stars, photographed you? 

When was the last time a top hair and make-up artist made you look gorgeous and glamorous? 

Most of you would say it was on your Wedding day, and some would say never. Well, don't you think it's time? You've reached an age when you can have something just for yourself, be self-indulgent, feel a little decadent, and be photographed in the most beautiful gowns. You deserve it! 

Once I've filled my quota of 40 businesswomen, I will hold a fantastic gala event to display all 4o businesswomen participants' portraits alongside their inspirational business journey stories. You'll have the opportunity to meet other inspirational women in business and network and engage with like-minded female entrepreneurs from East Anglia. 

The cost of participating in this event will be £450, and you'll receive a professional hair and make-up makeover and one complimentary 10 x 8 matted print to take away from your shoot. You will also have the opportunity to purchase more from your set. So, let's empower yourself and other businesswomen and get your collective message out there in your community and even further. 

I look forward to hearing from you very soon.

Ever wondered what it's like to step into the world of fashion photography?

For some, it might sound like a bit of a challenge, while for others, it's a dream gig—I fell into the latter category for a good chunk of my younger years.

In my twenties, I was side by side with the fashion scene, thanks to my then-partner, who worked as a stylist for big brands, catalogues, and fashion magazines. She was off to different places for shoots, rubbing shoulders with some big names in the fashion game.

Embracing your Authentic Personal Brand….

Embracing your Authentic Personal Brand….

Your personal brand is your unique identity, encompassing your values, passions, and beliefs. It's a reflection of your true self, both personally and professionally. In a world where authenticity is valued, why not make the effort to showcase the real "you"?

But how do you go about building and expressing your personal brand authentically?

Early this month, I received a call from a local broadcast journalist Georgy Jamieson, who, as a freelance creative needed a series of new images for her personal branding and marketing.


"Ohhhh, we weren’t sure if we could afford you and your services”…..

In my role as a commercial branding photographer, I relish the diverse range of people I encounter and get to work with. 

Every phone call, email, or website inquiry fills me with excitement and intrigue as I look forward to a new and unique journey each project brings. 

Each of my clients has different financial circumstances, but they all require the same quality service, which is exactly what I deliver, regardless of who they are or of their financial situations - they all want the same; superb photographic images for their businesses, irrespective of their budget. 

Just two weeks ago, I was tasked with creating a collection of editorial and lifestyle images for 
Home-Start in Suffolk ,' a local charity hosting a large corporate sports day for their supporters. These images were to be used for their marketing, promotional materials, and social media. 

They'd been impressed by the work and the results achieved for my previous clients. And what a glorious and well-organised day it was too. 

There was just one stumbling block in their view - the assumption that I might be too costly for their budget. 

Last week, I had the privilege of capturing a series of personal branding images for 
Paolo Emilio Zanini, CEO of the TBD media in London. From their plush offices to his gym and finally to his home, it was a day filled with creative energy. 

This week’s call came in from another local charity 
ActivLives - asking me if I could produce a series of editorial lifestyle and portrait images for all their marketing, promotional, social media and annual report brochures. 

They had been admiring my work but were also concerned about their budget. 

In today's financial climate, marketing often takes a backseat; but can you really afford to neglect your business marketing? Personal Branding should always be taken into consideration for your marketing. 

So to support smaller businesses and charities, I now offer flexible payment plans, allowing clients to spread the costs over three monthly instalments. This option isn't just for my 'Suffolk Showstopper’ offer - it's available for anyone in need of a full-day branding shoot, wherever you may be.

I'm here to provide you with unique branding photography that delivers results. 

Let's work together to create an affordable payment plan, ensuring you have the striking images essential for your business.

I'm not just a photographer but a partner in your branding journey. Let's remove any obstacles standing in the way of your business's visual success."

Worried about the cost of a Personal branding Photoshoot? Well, I just may have the answer for you.

Worried about the cost of a Personal branding Photoshoot?                               Well, I just may have the answer for you.

Today, we know so much about the importance of being visible if we're to get our businesses off the ground and point in the right direction for success. 

Many businesses desperately need professional photography, but they can't justify the cost early in their entrepreneurial journey. 

But the thing is, Personal Branding Photography for your Business isn’t a luxury item, it’s a necessity! 


Every business should have Personal Branding Photography as a part of their marketing budget, it’s also tax deductible, so add it to your end-of-year business expenses.

We all know what benefits website viewers can bring; finding out who we are and what we do when starting on our business adventures is priceless. Having engaging photography to promote and publicise our businesses is a fantastic way to get your message across. But, still, it's never at the top of our priority list. 

Why is this?
