CM Pilates – Fitness Personal Branding Shoot

I met with Claire Micklethwaite, owner of CM Pilates yesterday for a shoot at her studio in Cookridge, Leeds.  After lisa Hammond did her make-up, the class began and I happily spent some time snapping photos.

It was exhausting just watching them!

I didn’t like all the mirrors and being surrounded by gorgeous fit women… need to get my lazy arse to Pilates.  It certainly seems to work for these ladies.

Claire needed photographs for her website and social media, so we got a variety of images for both. I like to keep it quite relaxed, so this was a real class, with real customers too. It’s much more authentic.

When you’re a fitness/health or wellness business there a loads of ideas for images.

Hi There!

Meet Maryanne

I’m a 40 (ahem something…) year old Yorkshire woman.

I’ve been self employed for 10 years (and a photographer for 18) and I totally understand how difficult it is to be visible in business.

Whether that’s because of a lack of self confidence, feeling a bit frumpy or the physical side effects of peri-menopause (hot sweats and forgetfulness anyone) – I promise you I’ve seen it all and still get great photos at every photoshoot.

I honestly feel so honoured when people book me, because they believe that I really want the best outcome for you. There’s no point having a fancy photoshoot if it doesn’t feel authentic to you.

My aim for every shoot is to get photos and video that you actually want to share… and I’ll be there in the side lines cheering you on!
