DOING WHAT I DO BEST ...
For the last 10 years (10 years I hear you say? Oh yes! There will be more on the 10 year milestone soon) my business has been going from strength to strength and for the last year or so I’ve thought “I can’t do this alone”. I felt that I sooner or later I wouldn’t be able to give my couples and other clients my all, as I juggled to be a photographer / receptionist / book-keeper / diary manager and more.
I am a great believer in doing what you do best, even if that means sometimes delegating the rest. But we all know this is often easier said than done, especially when you have built up your business from scratch and it has been, and will always be, your baby. No-ones going to make my clients feel as loved as me, right?!
Well, I’m delighted to admit…I was wrong. They will and they have been. The right fit for that support, has been a longterm project and I’m thrilled to say that we’re in a great place for my clients, for our business mix, and for the studio. Whilst, totally and utterly keeping that personal touch.
Having a team to give my clients the ultimate service and a structure of skills within the studio, is allowing me to strengthen my focus on each client, and immerse myself in their journey and each shoot I undertake.
Team Venetia has been working tirelessly behind the scenes to look after you, to set our new products out to sail, to develop new opportunities for us and for you – and as if that wasn’t enough, we have a exquisite new look for the business coming late summer!
So as the month of June is starting to become a scorcher, I pledge to share more about myself, and the 2 ladies, 1 man and a dog – who all support me, who give you the best service, and have allowed Venetia Norrington Photography to survive, thrive and fall even more in love with this job after 10 stonking years. First up…the uber-organised, force to be reckoned with…Studio Manager, Ellie. (And of course, not forgetting Dotty the Dog!).
I wouldn’t be the photographer or person that I am today without each and every one of my team and my clients. I cannot thank you all enough.
