People are trying to twist and rewrite my past landscape photography workshop business into something it wasn’t.
The real story is it was my landscape photography workshop business no one else’s. I did not do anything other than landscape photography workshops.
It was as successful as I wanted it to be at that time with a core of wonderful guests. It did not go bust or collapse.
It was a small project to get me out the house while caring for my Dad who had dementia. All I wanted to do was break even and have a break from caring. I also love teaching. The testimonials I received.
No one had access to my financial accounts or client data or day to day business so for complete strangers with no access to my business to actually state I went bust or the business collapsed is absolute rubbish.
I used an American photography company for copy, price lists, marketing ideas and resources if wanted freely given back 10 years ago. They have been in business for many years, very successful and wanted to share what they had learnt with other photographers so budding business owners could start quickly with confidence. It’s now called paying forward. Phone scripts, copy, marketing postcards, how to structure a website above the scroll, colours, messy website or not, how to price, where to put offers, SEO. Given that they will be harassed I am not going to name them. It’s now a membership scheme that if I was still in business I would pay because there is nowhere else that has so much good information.
Anything you see online regarding Fotodayz, my old marketing material or my copyright photos have been stolen before 2016 and are being used maliciously. I deleted the domain name, all copy, all marketing materials in 2016.
All this gave me a break from a very difficult situation. I cannot have a gallery of photos as unfortunately they keep getting stolen like my Dads photo did.
My landscape photography business was deleted by me in 2016 due to a SM abusive witch hunt during a very personal traumatic time. I’m now retired.
That chapter of my life is now over and firmly closed. It is no one else’s business.
