Meet Karen Adams: Marketer, Mum, Dog Lover and DIY Enthusiast..

When people hear the name Adams Photography & Marketing, they often assume it's all about photography. While Trevor is the creative force behind the camera, I'm the marketing half of the business, helping clients tell their stories, build their brands, and get the most from their professional images. A Passion for People and Marketing

I've spent much of my career working in marketing, communications and business development, helping organisations attract customers, build relationships and stand out from the crowd.

What I've always loved most is understanding people. Every business has a unique story to tell, and I enjoy helping clients uncover what makes them special and communicate it in a way that feels authentic and engaging.

Why Photography and Marketing Work So Well Together

A great photograph captures attention, but it's the story behind the image that creates a connection.

Too often, businesses focus on one or the other. We believe the strongest results come from combining professional photography with clear, authentic marketing.

Whether it's a business owner building a personal brand, a company attracting new customers, or an organisation enhancing its employer brand, our goal is the same: helping people showcase the very best version of themselves.

Building a Business Together

Working alongside Trevor gives us a unique combination of skills. Whilst he focuses on creating outstanding imagery, I help clients think about how those images can support their wider marketing goals.

From website content and social media to personal branding and employer branding, we help businesses get more value from their photography investment.

It's not just about creating beautiful images. It's about creating images that work.

A Bit About Me

Outside of work, life is wonderfully busy. Trevor and I have four children, help care for my dad, and share our home with a lively Beagle and Border Collie who keep us on our toes.

When I'm not working with clients, you'll often find me tackling a DIY project, planning the next home improvement, gardening, or enjoying family time on the beautiful Sussex coast.

I genuinely love meeting new people and hearing their stories. Every business, career and personal brand is unique, and helping clients build confidence and showcase who they are is one of the most rewarding parts of what I do.

More Than a Photoshoot

One of the things clients often tell us is that they felt relaxed and supported throughout the process.

That's incredibly important to me.

Having professional photographs taken can feel daunting, especially if you don't enjoy being in front of the camera. We work hard to make the experience enjoyable, helping people feel comfortable, confident and proud of the final results.

Because great personal branding isn't about pretending to be someone you're not.

It's about helping people see the best in themselves and sharing that confidently with the world.
