Reflecting on 2024
A year in pictures
As the calendar inches toward the end of the year, I find myself looking and reflecting on 2024. This year has been filled with personal challenges, but equally also with a lot of laughter, creativity, great photo sessions, and unforgettable moments.
First and foremost, I want to say a heartfelt thank you to all my incredible clients. Whether it was a brand photoshoot to elevate your business, a wedding celebrating your love story, or a quiet moment with your beloved horse or dog, I’m honoured and grateful that you trusted me to tell your story. Every session has been unique, full of energy, and a beautiful reminder of why I love what I do.
Highlights of 2024
This year has brought so many different people and projects my way, and I’ve loved every single one of them. Here are just a few highlights:
- Brand and Commercial PhotographyWorking with local businesses and entrepreneurs to create authentic images that tell their brand stories has been such a joy. Seeing my clients use these photos to boost their visibility and confidently represent their businesses has been incredibly rewarding.
- Dog and Equine Photography
There’s something so magical about capturing the bond between humans and their four-legged friends. Dog and equine session will always have a special place in my heart, it’s such a privilege to document these relationships. - Wedding Photography
Every wedding this year reminded me that no two love stories are alike. From intimate elopements in Glencoe to grand celebrations with 170+ guests, each one has been a joy to photograph. Capturing the details, emotions, and moments that make each day unique is what makes wedding photography so special. - Workshops and Beginners’ Photography Courses
Seeing aspiring photographers learn and grow through my workshops, 121 mentoring, and courses has been incredible. Watching that “aha!” moment when someone masters their camera settings or creates the perfect composition is always a highlight.
A year of personal growth
2024 has been a year of growth for me personally and professionally. I embraced new challenges, explored my creativity, and played a lot of golf.
Through it all, one thing remains constant: my passion for helping people feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera. I know how vulnerable it can feel to have your photo taken (believe me, I’ve been there!).
Looking ahead to 2025
As we step into 2025, I’m filled with excitement for what’s to come. There are exciting new client projects on the horizon, more workshops in the works, and plenty of fresh ideas waiting to be brought to life.
One project I’m particularly excited about is a personal series I’ve been dreaming of for ages – 2025 is the year it’s finally happening! Stay tuned for updates on this passion project.
A final THANK YOU
To my clients, friends, and supporters: thank you for making 2024 such a memorable year. Your trust, kind words, and enthusiasm mean the world to me. I wouldn’t be where I am without you, and I can’t wait to see what we create together in 2025.
Wishing you all a joyful holiday season and a New Year filled with light, love, and laughter.
Lots of Love,
Iska
