From The School Photo Podcast, hosted by UKSPA committee member Lee Brooker.
Mags started a bespoke nursery photography business and went on to buy a school photography company with more than 90 schools. She talks about the techniques she uses to capture natural, happy moments in early years settings, the value of entertainers on set, and the challenge of growing a team that meets her standards.
She and Lee also cover her expansion into the US, why volume photography needs systems as well as quality, the role of child psychology in getting the shot, collaboration over competition, and building a sustainable, people-focused business.
