Do you know you need to be seen more? (and are unsure how to get started…)
a trial shoot circle session
So… what is a Shoot Circle?
Let me tell you how it all began.
A few years ago, I noticed something - some of the women I work with needed more than just a one-off brand shoot. They needed a steady stream of imagery that could keep up with the evolution of their work and the many ways they show up in the world.
They were tired of stock images. Tired of not really being seen.
They wanted space to rethink, to shift, to breathe new life into their offers… and to have images that reflect that. But here’s the thing - most of us don’t feel entirely comfortable in front of a camera.
So I created something softer. Something consistent. Something supportive.
The Shoot Circle is a gentle rhythm - monthly mini shoots, in beautiful North West locations, with a small group of like minded women by your side.
It’s a way to build your image library month by month, with ease. A space to be seen, just as you are, while also meeting others on a similar path. Maybe you’ll grab a coffee and share stories. Maybe you’ll simply show up, get what you need, and slip quietly away.
There’s no pressure here.
Just an invitation to be more visible, in a way that feels right for you.
Availability of trial spots is limited each month. Shoot to be used within 6 months of purchase.
This is your chance to dip your toe in…
I'd love to welcome you in to one of my Shoots Circles so that you can see first hand what everyone is talking about!
I have created a safe space for women to gather together and support each other in business, at the same time as updating their brand images every single month.
My Shoots Circles are normally a 12 month commitment (£95 per month), but I am offering you the chance to experience one of the shoots and choose your favourite image.
You will then have the opportunity to upgrade and join for 12 months, this will also give you access into the Facebook Group where we plan the shoots, share ideas and inspiration about making the most of your images.
What's involved…???

faq
how does it work?
When you book, we will agree on the location, date for your shoot (based on the list that is set at the start of each year). There will be the opportunity for a couple of outfit changes and use of props etc, and I will talk you through all this on our zoom call. You get to choose one image from the shoot.
How long can i stay on the day?
As long as you want! The clients that get the most from the subscription do two things - they plan their shoot ahead of time - and they join in - helping others on shoots by being a cheerleader, or a pretend client in a shot, and they arrive early and they stay and CHAT!!
CAN I bring someone with me to the shoot?
This shoot is all about YOU!! I don't want clients being put off by spectators, and it alters the vibe if I am honest. If you have a business partner, thats no problem, but they will need to book a trial also.
WHere are the shoots held?
This offer is to join one of my month shoot subscription groups. I have groups covering Manchester / Cheshire; Merseyside; North Wales / Chester and Lancashire. The exact locations are different every single month, so we will discuss this on our call.
I have Quarterly Circles running in locations around the country too - send me a message to find out about these.
how will i choose my image?
A few days after the shoot, your images will be loaded onto my online viewing gallery, which will allow you to choose your favourite image. The gallery is password protected, so only you will be able to see it. If you would like additional images - thats no problem - we have a special arrangement for that.
I've still got questions, can we chat before i book the trial?
Of course. Have a nosy at the website page all about the Shoot Circles and you still have questions, please book a virtual coffee with me by clicking here.

Your message is only as powerful as the visuals that accompany it.
"I have been a member of Ali's shoot subscription for a year now and it has really helped to elevate my business.
Ali really gets you to think about your branding and pulls your personality out and into the photos.
A wonderful part of being part of the shoot subscription is the networking that goes on, on shoot days. The connections (and friends) that I have made is amazing. This has become just as important as the photos.
Thank you Ali- you really are a special lady.”

"Joining Ali’s monthly Shoot Circles is one of the best decisions I have made.
It is more than just the photos, which are fabulous, it’s about connecting with other business women and putting the world to rights and having fun in the process.
It’s in my diary and is definitely a non-negotiable for me.
Thank you Ali xx."

"Ali is not only an incredible photographer, but also an incredible person.
She has a special way of making even the most nervous of people instantly feel at ease.
She is kind and caring, always listening to requests and makes sure to take pictures from my 'good side' only ;)
I've had the pleased of having Ali photograph me at festivals and I'm even a member of her monthly subscription shoot too. Using her images as part of my branding has undoubtedly elevated my profile.
You can always trust Ali will take and edit your photos perfectly. I can't recommend her highly enough..”
