Picture Perfect: How Brand Photography Shapes Your Success
Cut Through The Noise – Why Your Brand Photography Matters
This week on Cut Through The Noise, I sat down with Caroline Murray, The Portrait Boss, to talk about the impact of brand photography on your communication strategy. We explored how the way you present yourself shapes how clients perceive you, why preparation is key, and the satisfaction that comes from seeing your brand vision come to life. Most importantly, we discussed the real game-changer—the connection you create with your audience through your imagery.

New Blog: Why Your Brand Needs Powerful Imagery
Following on from my conversation with Caroline, I’ve written a blog on how powerful visuals can transform your brand presence. Your brand identity is more than just a logo or a tagline—it’s the first impression you make before you even say a word.
In this blog, I break down:
✔️ Why professional brand photography sets you apart.
✔️ How portraits tell a story and why connection matters more than a perfect pose.
✔️ Overcoming camera shyness and the confidence that comes with strong personal branding.
✔️ When it’s time to refresh your brand images to maintain credibility and engagement.

Recent Professional Speaking Association Event: Speaking, Podcasting & Performance
Last week, I had the pleasure of attending and speaking at the Professional Speaking Association event—and what a fantastic event it was!
🎤 Brian Downes delivered an insightful keynote on team performance and leadership, sharing valuable strategies for enhancing collaboration and productivity.
🎙️ I also joined Jean Evans and Colm O’Brien for a fireside chat on podcasting for speakers, expertly facilitated by Patrick Mercie MPSA. We had an engaging discussion on how podcasting can be a powerful tool for speakers to refine their message, expand their reach, and build deeper connections with their audience.
Beyond the sessions, it was a brilliant opportunity to network with fellow professional speakers, exchange ideas, and gain fresh perspectives on how to stand out in the industry.
