Photo Shoot with Polly Street

by Nancy Georges on April 12, 2012

In the digital age we need great profile pics & Fiona King of Polly Street was fabulous!  I am not a fan of having my photo taken but Fiona took the stress out!

I really didn’t want ‘studio shots’ I am retailer and a marketer and wanted my pics to reflect that ~ and they do! We shot in the streets of Balmain.  Thanks to Lol & Roc, Anokhi, Suyu Emporium and Pearl Gift & Homewares for the use of their store windows! Even sold a book (7 Powerful Ways To Boost Retail Profits)!!

Visit the Polly Street site here: www.pollystreet.com

Here are the pics and some behind the scenes shots!
