Helping you get better photos...

Since we can't get together and create amazing photos together, I am going to continue to help you with other options.

If you have been taking your own photos, but want a little help, I'm here for you!

Retouching - colour, straightening horizons, editing out elements making them look a little something extra than straight out of camera. Still keeping it real though. From $70 per hour

Resizing - resizing your photos to make them fit the different places they need to go. Bulk photo re-sizing from $35

Stock photos - check out www.heidiwho.com/buy for tourism style stock photos. More being uploaded weekly so if you are looking for something in particular, get in touch and I'll prioritise. From $5 an image

Mentoring and courses - $195 for 2 hours ‘one on one’ or other online options at www.heidiwho.com

Hoping these services can help you until we can get out and have fun on a shoot together!

Want to get more action in your social media feed?

Better Pics for Business is opening its doors on Tuesday, March 1st. Only a few more days to register. Have you jumped onboard?

Do you want a better social media feed?
Do you want a better e-shopfront?
Do you want more clients?

Sick of taking photos that aren't how you thought they would turn out?
Tried to be smart - but ended up with blurry pics?
Not quite sure how to get your subject of focus looking its best?

You know the best bet is to hire a professional photographer, but sometimes you don't have time or the money. Yes, you will hire a pro for major stuff, but what about your social media? You try to do it yourself. But it just doesn't work out the same - nowhere near. Well, how about learning some easy tips and tricks easily that will turn your photos from blah to wow?

In 8 weeks, Better Pics for Business will get your photo feed looking more inviting, attractive, interesting and... just a bit more wow. 

What is it?

Online course/mentoring run by me, Heidi, of heidi who photos. I have over ten years experience in location photography.

What does this experience mean for your learning? You won't need all the bells and whistles to get great looking photos. You don't need to spend a fortune on a camera and all the bits. I know cheat tips, how to work quickly, natural light, making people comfortable in front of the camera - everything you will need to get good looking pics yourself.

It's part course, part mentoring. No point learning it, then doing nothing with it. Each week you will have homework to practice what you are learning. There's also a community to learn and share with. Help each other, and learn from each other. 

We will be focusing on the story and helpful tips rather than the geeky numbers and stats. Yes, there is a bit of geek, but it's more about how to use any camera to get a "Like' worthy photo or two. 

Photography goes a long way in gaining interest from potential clients. Don't turn them away with a dodgy looking online presence. Don't let yourself down. 

And, as a subscriber of heidi who travels, you get it at the awesome price of $149 instead of $295 using this (ugly) link...

If you need to know a bit more, you can find out all about the course at www.heidiwho.com/betterpicsforbusiness . 

If you can't do the course now, it will be run again later in the year, or you can join anytime and do it at your own pace. However the discount won't last. It's only until March 1st. 

2016 - want to learn?

And welcome to 2016! I hope this year is a year full of fun, excitement, adventure and love for you. In all areas of your life - personal, career and family. 

I read something from a good friend of mine today, about setting your intentions on progress rather than goals. I love it. So often we are disappointed when we don't reach our lofty goals. Setting the bar high can be good, so long as you don't beat yourself up if you don't achieve exactly what you set out to do. What is that saying about reaching the stars? I forget. I guess that is also why many business plans are set out with many smaller tasks and activities scheduled to achieve the one big goal. Like a ladder - step by step. 

This year, that is what I am doing. Taking things one step at a time. To have my intentions but not dwell on achieving them. I'm going to look more at my little steps. From small things big things grow. For me, it's new beginnings. I'm continuing with my location photography but also introducing a stock photography library, developing my blog and an app, and something else rather special...

So, with that. I'd like to announce the first round of my eCourse 'Better Pics for Business' (check out promo link at end of this). It's all about learning how to get better photos for your social media, newsletters and general business stuff. Of course, there is always going to be a place for a pro photographer (can I suggest myself :) ) but sometimes you just need to get some pics. We all know how important visuals are, especially with so much competing for attention in the online world. We need to stand out and be personal and unique - and grab attention to get more attention.

Instead of talking all tech and geeking out on you, we are going to go through the storytelling aspect of the photo, talk about things to think about when aiming up your camera. AND, it's not just for fancy DSLR users, you can learn with any camera or device that takes a photo. It will be fun.

Members will get homework and feedback - to make sure you learn what is taught rather than finishing up with fuzzies still going around in your head. I guess it's a bit like a mentoring group. 

I realise that you can do any number of online courses, in-person worksops or learn for free via YouTube - but the thing that is missing is the feedback on your photos, unique learnings and techniques that you need. With the Better Pics for Business course, you have the opportunity to tailor what you need and get the answers. 

Check it out at www.heidiwho.com/betterpicsforbusiness. Starts Tuesday 1st March. AND... as a reader of heidiwhotravels you will receive the course at nearly 50% off!
