How long does the portrait or headshot photoshoot take? Sussex brand photographer

November 16, 2021

Do you offer a quick portrait brand photoshoot in Sussex area?

As a professional portrait photographer based in Brighton, sometimes I am asked if I can do a short 15-20 minute or “mini brand brand portrait photoshoot”. Unfortunately, I have to turn these enquiries down because my heart just isn’t into it. And this is why:

Are you a flowing water, invincible woman or a limitless, resilient rock woman? - Personal Brand Portrait Photo session

August 5, 2019

Are you a flowing water, invincible woman or a limitless, resilient rock woman?

Both are powerful yet showing their strength in a distinct way.

As a Professional Personal Brand Portrait Photographer and Retreat Photographer based in “sunny” UK, Sussex area, I strive to be surrounded with women who trust and surrender to the flow of life. It may even be at its simplest, the state when we just are, and we know that we are exactly where we should be.

Are you “the water” or “the rock”? or BOTH like me!

Personal Brand  Portrait and Retreat Photographer & Videographer- Magdalena Smolarska International Photographer

I discovered my heart of creation at the Writing Retreat - Professional Retreat Photographer & Videographer

June 23, 2019

Me, my camera, my journal and pen! That’s what I packed for the personal branding film and photography project with Agatha, a professional writer and a writing retreat organiser.

But let’s be honest!

I was not only excited to capture the essence and the atmosphere of her beautiful seven day women writing retreat BUT mostly excited to take part in the retreat myself. 

Why?

Because for many years, writing, blogging and journaling have been out of my comfort zone. I never truly enjoyed the process. I did not know where to start and how to express myself freely. 

I have never been able to find a time for writing all day long without feeling guilty…

Lifestyle Outdoor Portrait Session

Justyna Outdoor Portrait Session- London & Brighton Portrait Photographer

December 2, 2017

I simply adore Autumn!

It’s one of the best time of the year for those beautiful and colorful OUTDOOR PORTRAIT SESSIONS! It comes as no surprise that’s one of the busiest time of the year for all photographers – especially those who find joy in exploring the world outside of their studios’ 4 walls, such as me. I’ve spent most of past weeks shooting multiple lifestyle family outdoor portraits (you HAVE to check my other blog posts ) as well as portraits of individuals among the greens, yellows and reds.
