Episode 12 - Chloe Williams, Founder, Stories By Chloe

She can. She did.

This week, I got to chat to a lady that has played a huge part in She can. She did.'s story to date because she happens to have photographed every single one of the twenty She can. She did. - Midweek Mingles since they launched in 2018... and has done a bloody good job doing so too!

I first came Chloe in early 2018 when an email popped into my inbox ahead of the very first Midweek Mingle, enquiring about whether I was looking for a photographer for said Mingle and if so, would I be interested in letting her capture the event? We had a chat, I said "yes", she turned up with her tripod and the rest is history!

Recorded via Zoom a few weeks back, we covered everything from the early days of Stories By Chloe when she 'fluffed out the truth' somewhat and offered photography for free to build a portfolio that went on to attract her dream clients; her advice for any service-based business owner struggling for work; how she's learnt to combat the loneliness en route by finding her tribe along the way (her Bridesmaids analogy is food for thought here!); why the impact of lockdown was a blessing in disguise for her business; to how she went about navigating the realities of running her brand when the death of her beloved Grandma meant that she was grieving behind the scenes; this is Chloe's honest story to date and how she's gone about creating her dream career since launching her business three years ago.

From "tripod girl" who showed up at the first Mingle and barely spoke a word to anyone to a highly skilled photographer who works the room, puts everyone at ease and now has a jam packed diary full of her dream clients, I've loved watching Chloe's story unfold from afar, I loved recording this chat so as always, I hope you enjoy it too!
