Day 15. A lovely day indeed, topped off with the Strictly Final. 🌟Tomorrow at 11am I will be Live on Facebook for the Makelight Christmas Workshop. My favourite of the year! I hope you will join me. xo

Stef and I started our weekend here for a breakfast date. So incredibly pretty. xo

Day 14 : today was super relaxing and just what I needed after a couple of really jam-packed weeks. Have the best weekend everyone xo

Happy Friday lovely people! 💕 I wish I could have a big, rose gold balloon in my kitchen every day. 💕 From @hellopartyinsta xo

Day 13. Nothing like as restful as I had hoped but the weekend isn’t far off! 💕🎄

How adorable is this cake stand full of mini balloons?! Designed by my friend @hellopartyinsta. I think it would be so cute at a birthday party. xo

Day 12. My day started with Daybreaker this morning (a morning dance party that starts at 7am), followed by redecorating the Christmas tree now that it is standing again and hosting the Makelight Gathering....and now I am in bed putting the finishing touches to our family year book before the printing deadline ends at midnight!! 🎄🎄🎄 Tomorrow I will mainly be eating mince pies and watching a Christmas movie! 🤣 xx

How lovely is this scene that my talented friend @hellopartyinsta created in my garden today for the Makelight Gathering? Thank you to everyone who came today. It was a special one that’s for sure! I will share more tomorrow. xo

Day 11. I have spent all day getting ready for tomorrow’s Festive Gathering. It was all going well until our Christmas Tree fell over! Lots of water everywhere and broken ornaments but luckily no-one was hurt. Hope we can get it back up when Stef comes home. 🤦🏻‍♀️🎄🌟

Day 11. I have spent the day decorating the house for tomorrow’s Makelight Gathering. All was going well until our Christmas tree fell over. 😳😢🎄 Hoping it will all be fixed for tomorrow. xx

Instagram is a great way to promote what you offer and build a community around you and your work, whether that's a personal interest or for business.

Over the past couple of years I've grown my following by tens of thousands.

Not with any tricks – just by finding time in the daily routine to consistently create and share relevant, beautiful images.

Now I'm sharing what I've learnt so you can apply the same approach!

In this workshop I will help you improve your photography and gain skills that will help you grow your following.

AN INSPIRING workshop

If you're not a natural with a camera it can be hard to get going on Instagram, Pinterest and other places that rely on beautiful images.

It can be so demoralising seeing those around you getting thousands of likes on their images and you're left thinking:

"Why don't I get the same reaction to my Instagram posts as those around me?"

On this course you'll learn practical ways to shoot, plan and share your work while developing your own personal style.

Learn how to create beautiful images that your followers will love, not just like

Learning with others is a joy. The Makelight community is welcoming and supportive. No matter your ability, you'll feel safe and encouraged to share those slightly imperfect photos in private.

We've learnt that feedback really helps, so Emily will reply to questions and provide feedback on the images you post in our private Facebook group. You'll also get support from our small Makelight team if you're having any trouble.
