OUTDOOR HEADSHOTS WITH RANGES WOMEN IN BUSINESS MEMBERS
Resigning from my career of 15 years and launching Kate Cashin Photography in the midst of the covid pandemic was an interesting time. It meant many, many long months of being unable to photograph clients. It did however give me the opportunity to work behind the scenes on the business itself.
One thing that helped immensely was joining my local female business owners’ network. During Winter 2021 we did a weekly group Zoom call on a Friday afternoon as a way to stay connected and debrief our week.
As restrictions lifted and life began returning to normal I wanted to meet these women in person and give something back. I therefore decided to offer them discounted outdoor headshots in a mini format.
These sessions were held in Olinda over two mornings in February 2022. We laughed, danced and chatted in the late summer sunshine and it was so incredibly good for our souls.
