Your Privacy Matters: Why I Take It Seriously

In today’s digital age, privacy isn’t just important, it’s essential. Every day, we share more of ourselves online, from photos to personal details, and sometimes it feels like we’re handing over pieces of our lives without even thinking about it. As a photographer, I see firsthand how images can tell stories, build brands, and create connection, but I also know that not every story should be shared.

I want to make one thing crystal clear: your photos, your story, your rules. If you don’t want your imagery shared on my platforms, it won’t be. Full stop. While I’ll always have an open conversation about how sharing certain images can help your business or brand, the choice is always yours. Your comfort, your trust, and your privacy come first.

Why does this matter so much to me personally? Recently, I experienced multiple breaches of my own privacy by a government organisation. It was frustrating, unsettling, and left me feeling vulnerable in ways I hadn’t anticipated. It was a sharp reminder of how important it is to protect yourself, and the people you work with, from having their personal information or imagery mishandled. I never want my clients to experience that same sense of violation.

Photography has incredible power. It can capture joy, tell a story, and build connection. But with that power comes responsibility. Every image I take is handled with care, and I take the trust you place in me seriously. Your images aren’t just files, they’re a part of your story, your life, and your business. They deserve to be treated with respect.

So, whether it’s a professional branding shoot, family portraits, or personal imagery, I promise this: your photos will be yours to control. I’ll guide, advise, and help you get the most out of your images, but at no point will I ever compromise your privacy.

In a world that often feels like everything is out in the open, I want you to know you can have a space where your story is safe, respected, and completely under your control.

Your story. Your images. Your privacy. Always.
