Start your newborn career the best way

About Deana Louise

Hello my lovelies, Im Deana, an East London girl who had a passion for photography and decided one day after seeing a professional newborn photograph in a magazine that, thats what I wanted to do.

I took my £400 camera and kit lens and attended my first group workshop, where I felt like a total fraud, I knew nothing. 

Being as stubborn and determined as I am, I wanted to prove to myself that I could do this and I gave myself 6 months to do it.

I had 3 kids under 5 and very little money but what I did know was that if I had a hope in hell of making this work, I had to find the money to educate myself, the cheap camera does the job but without knowledge, without the experience and wisdom of someone who was already doing what I wanted, I may as well of given up there and then.

Within 12 months I had won 2 awards, people were actually booking me, actually bloody paying me to do what I absolutely loved.

I knew what I wanted from my business so I trained more in every aspect of business, I wanted to know as much as possible to get where I wanted to be.

The best lesson I learnt was my Be You Business approach, this was not about following trends or the crowd but creating an authentic business from within.

10 years later, over 40 photographic awards, an associate in newborn photography, judge of an international awards, 3 business awards and a business that stood out, Images that stood out and being paid well for doing what I loved.

I had made the dream happen and gone beyond that.

If an East End girl like me, not university educated, but with a dream can make it a reality, so can you xx

Woo Hoo, get ready, grab a pen, notebook and a cuppa
