You may have seen on LinkedIn today that it’s #TransgenderDayOfVisibility…

As ever, because I can’t bear performative support - here are some small ways you can actually support trans and non binary people today:  

🏳️‍⚧️ Educate yourself on peoples’ experiences 

🏳️‍⚧️ Call out harmful behaviour 

🏳️‍⚧️ Respect all people, not just those who fit your bias (or who you consider to be ‘passing’

🏳️‍⚧️ Ask for, and use pronouns

🏳️‍⚧️ Follow Trans and Non binary creators

🏳️‍⚧️ Educate others to support and be an ally

And a few bonus tips:

💥 don’t ask trans people to do the work for you - educate yourself first

💥 pay trans people for work they do

💥 apologise quickly and earnestly if you make a mistake 

💥 remember - “trans people are just ordinary people who want to be happy” - Katie Neeves FRSA 

Here are some phenomenal trans and non binary creators who are wonderful to follow and regularly light up my feed: 

❤️ Katie Neeves FRSA 
❤️ Max Siegel 
❤️ Ben Pechey 
❤️ Margi Marchetti (they/them) 
❤️ Emma Preston 

Here are some great links to explore and educate yourself:

How to actually support trans people today 🏳️‍⚧️

I’ve shot more people than Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone combined.

And, like their films, after I’m done shooting, you’ll walk away with barely a scratch on you.

But instead of being Dead Guy Number 2 in the credits, when you work with me, you’ll walk away with something much more beneficial to your career that’ll definitely get you noticed ‘around town’.

I launched Personal Paparazzi - my version of a red carpet premier dedicated entirely to you fabulous keynote speakers out there - just over a week ago, and it’s already proven to be a smash hit blockbuster.

As the name suggests, darling, I'll be your very own Director of Photography, and I’ll shoot from the moment you arrive at the venue to the moment you leave.

That’s right - FULL EVENT COVERAGE.

That’s candid photos of you preparing to go on, action shots of you delivering your mesmerising talk, and spontaneous snaps of you mingling with the audience afterwards.

On top of all this, you get FIFTY professionally edited photos of the night you came to town and stole the show.

I’m an in-person event speaker myself, so I know exactly what you need to capture in these photos to land future, higher-paying speaking gigs.

Professionalism.
Confidence.
And bags of personality.

DM me the word LUVVIE, and let’s chat about how we can capture your Oscar-worthy performance for posterity.

Ps. I’ve learnt in the last week that you have to get in early to insure I’m available for your talk!!

Love ya x

I know you’re scared to show who you really are in your business, but you don’t have to be!

I’ve proven time and time again that showing your true personality will get you better clients, repel those mouldy polyp ones that don’t align with you, and make you more money!

Once you’ve broken free of the riffraff you’ll be a much happier person!

You’re basically giving them a pain free Polypectomy. 

So if you’re fed up of blending in with everyone else and want to level up your business, DM me and I’ll sing to you on a voice note x

It occurred to me that I haven’t told you what you get with my photoshoots 

So here’s a breakdown…

FULL BLOODY PERSONAL AND BUSINESS TRANSFORMATION

My clients go from hating having their photo taken and lacking confidence to be themselves in their business

To making six figures, loving themselves and rebooking me for a photo refresh. 

People think they aren’t confident enough to have a shoot with me ‘Like the others’

Well babe, ‘the others’ were just like you!

It’s THAT transformational.

LOOK!

Want this? Message me.

So we’ve built up your confidence, worked on your brand, had a magical shoot and delivered fantastical photos…what now?

One of the first questions I ask my clients on our discovery call is ‘What are you going to use these photos for?’

Quite often the answer is ‘Um…’

Well there are a tit load more uses than just your profile picture!

Such as…

💥 Social media banners
💥 Featured section
💥 Single photo posts
💥 Carousels
💥 Projects section
💥 Website
💥 Calendly
💥 Email signature
💥 Business cards
💥 Newsletter
💥 Stories
💥 Brochures
💥 OK I’m going to stop now because I’m getting thumb ache…but you catch my drift

You can use your photos for SO many things 

And when your ideal client sees your face on each of the 7 touch points they need before they buy, they’re going to trust you more and throw their money at you. 

It’s not vanity. 

It’s business.

YOU 👏 SHOULD 👏 BE 👏 CONFIDENT 👏 ENOUGH 👏 TO 👏 BE 👏 YOURSELF 👏 

But you’re not, are you?

It’s not your fault, but you’re the only one who can change it. 

‘I need to lose weight first’

‘I need to tone up’

‘I should have done it when I was younger’ 

I’ve just spent an hour going back through photos of me to find a specific one and realised that I was a right fitty when I was younger. 

I thought I was a fat hideous beast, but look at me! What on EARTH was I thinking?

So while you’re sat there thinking you’re not enough (you definitely are), in 1,2,3 years time, you look back and kick yourself. 

Give yourself a break. 

You’re bloody beautiful. 

Xxx

I’ve been tricking you and I just can’t do it any more!

It’s no secret to anyone that I have ADHD and I’ve been struggling up to the Bristols with it. 

Around six months ago I received help from the government through Access to Work (DM me if you need help with this). 

We worked out that I was doing up to 85 hours of work a week and around 25 hours of that could be taken off me…so I hired Lois and her team to help me.

It was a really hard step to give away some of the work I did, and writing some of my LinkedIn posts was one of them. 

They would write my posts in advance for me, I would change a few words here and there (you know the ones), and schedule them for the week. 

I would then reply to all the comments etc because I felt it was important that it was actually me speaking to you and building relationships. 

And while they did an OUTSTANDING job of it and got my tone of voice pretty damn spot on, I felt some kind of disconnect. 

Like some of the wo0 sparkle had gone. Some of my pizazz. Some of the utter j*zz that spurts out of my brain on the daily. 

So I’ve taken it back. 

You lucky lot will be getting covered in it from head to toe via your eyes. I’m going to be dripping off your nose and over your lips…and you’re going to lap it up. 

Welcome back to me!

Did you notice a difference?

I’m fighting a one-woman battle to rid the world of boring, generic keynote speaker photos.

How many times have you seen a photo of someone standing on a stage, a microphone in their hand, under a light so harsh that it looks like they’re being abducted by aliens?

The people in that room were hanging off your every word for an hour and the best you can do to represent that is a photo of you with your mouth open, mid-sentence, looking like a drowning fish?
C’mon!

Babe, you deserve so much more.

Let me take your keynote speaker photographs, and you’ll get shots from the entire day; everything from prepping to go onstage, to the main event, to answering questions afterwards.

Not only will you get 50 professionally edited photos of you owning that stage and that crowd, but they’ll also perfectly portray your vibrant personality and confidence - and trust me when I say your potential clients will lap it up.

Or, y’know, you could just have your mate take a bunch of photos on their fingerprint-smudged camera phone, but you’ll look amateurish and as colourless and vacant as Mark Zuckerberg after accidentally taking his nan’s sleep meds.

Maybe you don't want those high-ticket clients after all?

If you’re on that stage and smashing it then the world deserves to know.

With me as your Personal Paparazzi, we can do it.

I’m offering two more slots at the introductory price of £1,000, and seeing as my full-day shoot costs three times as much as that, you’re getting a real bargain.

DM me the work PERPAP now to be one of the lucky two.

Follow me Wendy Gannon 📸 and ring my bell so you don’t miss out on my awful puns ❤️

Do you know what I love when working with women that have no confidence in front of the camera?

And I’m not exaggerating when I say this happens 

EVERY. 
SINGLE. 
TIME. 

…taking that first picture and showing you on the back of my camera and watching your face light up because no matter how much I say I take photos you’ll not only like, but love…

everyone thinks they’ll be the one that it doesn’t happen to. 

*Family fortunes EHH UURGHHH ❌*

Everyone is wrong, and I love to prove it. 

Let me prove you wrong. 

Book a shoot with me and let me help you love yourself.

I love my job so much. 

Every day is a vibe. 

I have so much fun on every single shoot. 

I jump up and down and scream with excitement when I’ve taken a photo I love of you. 

People laugh at how happy it makes me. 

You don’t have a single chance to feel awkward or shy in front of my camera because we will be having the best time together!

That’s why it’s super important to be yourself in your business so that you attract the right people to work with you. 

I’ve done it and I’ve never been happier in my life. 

This video was me shooting So Solid Crew for Raver tots at Ministry of Sound yesterday. 

Today we go again in Kingston. 

SEE?!

How much do you love your job?

I’ve screwed up more than a few times since I’ve been doing photography full time. 

I’m not proud of some of the things I’ve let happen. 

Things like

📸 Being late for a shoot
📸 Going to the wrong venue
📸 Double booking my time
📸 Not taking the best photos when I’ve been ill
📸 Deleting the RAW photos someone has selected 

I recognised that I buggered things up and dealt with them or put precautions into place like

📸 Working out my route and setting alarms every 15 minutes to make sure I get everything done and leave on time
📸 Do a recce on Street View and check Appy Parking before leaving
📸 Give someone else the responsibility!
📸 Edit all the photos and on delivery say that I wasn’t happy with them and redo the shoot
📸 Try to recover the files, cry, speak to IT, cry some more, be honest and tell the client what’s happened, apologise profusely cry a bit more, recover the jpg files, tell the client, and offer an extra 10 photos as an apology. 

This post is to remind you that EVERYONE screws up. It’s how you deal with problems and people that matters. 

Be honest, show integrity, treat others how you want to be treated and above all, be kind.

***Looking to hire someone for bed***

I’m feeling the loneliness at the moment. 

I actually love being single…I’m having the most fun of my life 👀 

And I do NOT miss that feeling in the pit of your stomach that if you’re a second late, or if you’re not exactly where you’re meant to be you’ll get a wallop. 

Ok maybe I just haven’t had a decent relationship 🤔😂

The feeling of freedom I have now is unbeatable (no pun intended). 

- I can watch what I want when I want
- I can nap any time I feel like it
- I can fart and pick my nose without judgement
- I can eat a tub of margarine for dinner if I bloody well want to!

I obviously don’t pick my nose, but you catch the drift. 

BUT I MISS CUDDLES SO MUCH 🥺

I miss being spooned at nighttime. I miss foot snuggles. I miss having my legs entwined with someone else while watching telly. I miss stupid in jokes and being an idiot with someone. 

I want my bloody cake and I want to bloody eat it. 

*stamps foot* 

So is anyone up for the job of snuggle monster?

DISCLAIMER - Don’t slide into my DM’s you gross pigeon.

I’m working at Ministry of Sound today. Here’s a really old picture of me stood on the bar there shooting JME 😍

POP QUIZ!

What's the one thing these people have in common?

A Keynote Speaker
A Copywriter
A LinkedIn expert
A Web Developer
A Graphic Designer
A Coach
A Recruiter
A Marketer
A Trainer
Even a dog groomer!

...


RESULTS!

Results from having the wangers to take a leap, invest in their personal brand and work with me. 📸

They upped their game, showed the world they are taking this seriously and reaped the rewards.

They have gone from freelancer to bonefide business owner.

They have gone from £5k months to £10k + months.

And most importantly, their self confidence and belief has shot through the roof!

(I suppose you could say they have more than one thing in common!)

Don't believe me? Check out my SEVENTY NINE testimonials and see for yourself.

Are you ready to grow a pair of big wangers, too?

Love ya! x

Here are three reasons why now is the perfect time for you to book your photoshoot…

1. Have you LOOKED outside lately? Spring has definitely sprung. 

The blossom is blossoming, the bluebells are blueing, the scenery (or backdrop) is absolutely beautiful and it won’t be around for long!

2. We’re hitting temperature in the teens which is perfect shooting weather…

a) so you (and me) don’t sweat our jubblies off and have to keep powdering your pretty nose and covering forehead shine. 

b) you can get a WHOLE YEARS worth of photos with outfits for all seasons. Think winter coat in one shot and shorts & T-shirt in another. 

3.  Spring is one of the BEST times of year for lighting. 

The sun is so beautifully low, even at midday, that your face doesn’t have any harsh shadows covering it. 

The light is warm and flattering AND we can have fun with early evening haze and fill lights (something I’ve not really done for anyone on here yet, but is so sick!). 

AND you can get beautiful sun stars like the one below. Cool eh?

So…what are you waiting for?

Slippy slide in my DM’s and let’s get you sorted x

HONESTY TIIIIIIMMMMEEE

I’m in a right grumpy bum mood today and I just can’t shake it. 

My head is all over the place thinking stupid things about me that I know aren’t true. 

I feel like a huge imposter. 

All I want to do is eat pizza and chocolate and cry. 

THINGS AREN’T ALWAYS SUNNY WITH DANNY DEVITO

Here’s a photo of a pig cuddling Jimmy especially for #mrsarcastic

I dream big. And I’m not talking about the goals kind of dream, but the sleep kind of dream. 

I just woke myself up shouting at a man to F off because he was following me around Basildon. 

I looked at my phone and my kid messaged me at 02:39 ‘YOU JUST BURST INTO SONG’

I’ve woken myself up when I had guests sleeping over by shouting ‘Daddy suck my T**s!’ to Toast of London while I dreamt he was doing things to me. 

My dreams are like actual life and I know when I’m in them. I have little signs like my phone not working properly. I can bring myself in and out of them. 

I’m 100% sure I’ve also dreamed things before they’ve happened too. Like, I KNOW what’s happening next sometimes!

Oh and nightmares are sexy. 

What’s wrong with me? 😂😂😂😂

Happy Easter x

Do you know what I hate?

Toxicity.

It creeps in and takes over, especially in the workplace.

Looking back I've had MORE than my fair share of toxic bosses in my time, in fact it was the biggest driver for me to start my own business.

Some of the amazing experiences I've had at the hands of a**e**le bosses:

😣 Putting down other team members to me
😣 Micromanaging to the point of tears of frustration
😣 Sexual harassment via emails, phone calls and face to face
😣 Phoning on a Friday night and shouting at me for an hour - d**k!
😣 Putting software on laptops that check what you're doing every 10 seconds

I could be here all day listing every negative experience.

There does seem to be a shift happening now, people becoming more aware and taking action to support each other to stop toxicity at work.

But it's been engrained in the corporate world for so long, it's no easy task!

Thankfully, now, I have the best boss ever (It's me, I'm the boss) but those memories still make me shudder.

Have you had any nightmare bosses? I want to hear all the horror stories!

The most asked question I get as a photographer…

‘Why are you called wo0?’

Well there is a story behind it, and I will tell you. 

But only after you’ve had a guess. 

So go on, what’s your best story of how I got my nickname!!

Here’s a photo you’ve not seen before. It’s from a shoot with two DJ’s called Cally and Juice from YEARS ago. I had the idea of photoshopping their faces together and spent at least six hours editing it. Cally is on the right and Juice is on the left. It’s so technically bad but I love it so much ❤️
