Why hire Penny Bird?
This blog highlights 10 reasons (some tongue-in-cheek) of why you might want to try out my photography services.
Well, first I can’t believe I’ve been in business for 10 years!
In June this year I celebrate 10 years of being Head of Everything at pennybird and camera and I’m absolutely loving the journey. I meet the most amazing people, see the insides of great businesses, and proudly watch you achieve great things. I’m still not bored. I never feel as if I’m doing real work. I experiment, push boundaries and learn something every day. I’m ever grateful to the people who support me, appreciate my work (thank you for your thank you’s), engage with me on social media, and make referrals to friends and colleagues - all of which keep me thriving.
I give us “my best shot”
Our relationship starts with you liking my work and reaching out, so I genuinely care about understanding you and your vision, and delivering (hopefully even exceeding) your expectations. When clients come back to me for the second or third times, it is the best kudos of all, and I work hard to maintain and nurture the people in my tribe.
My brand promise to you
Whether you are an individual, a business, an event attendee, or furry and four legged friend, I approach every shoot with the goal of showcasing my subjects at their best. Express and celebrate yourself, and revel in showing up - it’s not often we do. A camera and a photographer gives one freedom to play and experiment. Be you. Be visible. Be your best.
I’m a big spender
True, but my account is at Wex Photographic! I invest in the latest camera equipment, gadgets, software and all-things-photography-related so I have best quality tools available to give me creative freedom to capture your images.

Mobile, portable and nomadic
I do have a home studio in Hertfordshire, but tend to travel with my portable studio to your offices, or shoot on location - mostly in London, various sites across the UK, or in Zurich. If you have other locations in mind - I’m open to suggestions.
I fancy myself…
…as maybe a sort-of-Sherlock-Holmes of photography? Ideas and solutions are always flowing in my head… I notice the obvious, then take time to observe and frame the less obvious… This is the part of the process I feel I add the most value. Pulling all the information and elements together, using light, noticing the detail, and clicking the shutter at exactly the right time.
Ever heard of a digital signature?
Essentially an arrangement of digital dots, I genuinely hope when you look at my finished photographs, you’ll recognise my intangible stamp made up of:
Emotion - because I shoot with my heart.
Your brand - interpreted consistently across the images.
An inner smile - how you felt or experienced working with me.

A “happiness promise to you”
I only sleep at night if my clients feel like supermodels or are happily convinced that they have the shots they need for their businesses. My “happiness promise” offers a do-over for anyone who isn’t feeling the vibe. In fact, I insist on it.
I like being licked and nibbled…
…when I’m rolling on the ground at a commercial dog shoot. If you listen carefully, I make funny squeaky noises too and laugh at my own jokes!
Last, but most important. Because you deserve five stars.
