New Find A Creative website for anyone pulling together photo shoots

Find A Creative is a brand new resource for the stills photographic industry for print and digital media. Co-founder Jenni Booth says: “It is a directory of people who specialise in this industry, a place where creatives can be found by clients, and where creatives can be found by other creatives!”

She adds: “Unlike other connection sites such as LinkedIn or The Loop, Find A Creative is simply a little black book of useful people relating solely to our industry. Whether you are a client looking to pull together a team for a stills photo shoot, a photographer looking for a digi operator or assistant, or a stylist looking for props or a set builder, Find A Creative lists them all!”

Jenni says many brands are now producing their own photo shoots to save money. “This website will provide an invaluable source of contacts for them to do this, right down to the delivery driver and caterers. We even provide contacts for the post-production too, if you need a graphic designer or web builder.”

Prop Hire Online is for sale. Any takers?

Stylist Jenni Booth is selling her business, two years after creating the first ever online prop hire store.

As a busy stylist, it is one of the things I dreamed of finding while scouring for props on the internet late into the night,” she says. “So in January 2011 I launched Prop Hire OnlineAlong the way it has evolved into so much more than just a place for stylists to hire props from. Now it is a stylist supplies shop, where kits and tools of the trade can be purchased, a directory for stylists assistants and the online shop, G-Sale, is a garage sale of props that I no longer have a need for and want to pass on.”

As a a freelance stylist for 18 years, Sydney-based Jenni has scoured the globe for props. While setting up Prop Hire Online, she has juggled a fulltime freelance styling career and working on a new (as yet secret) venture. “While I am extremely proud of what I have created with Prop Hire Online, it is time to pass this onto someone who has the same passion for styling and props as I do, but more importantly, the time to run it.”
