A couple of weeks ago I had the enormous pleasure of photographing my friend and fellow entrepreneurial adventurer, Robyn Young. Robyn founded a business called Brandheart which, as the name suggests, helps personal and business brands find their heart. She’s a woman of integrity who has inspired me ever since we met a number of years ago and so when she asked me to do photos for her new website, I was thrilled. And of course, I took the opportunity to include her in the next of my Tuesday Chats With… series.
