2. Recovery through the eye of a lens.
• "Photographs are footprints of our minds,
mirrors of our lives, reflections from our
hearts, frozen memories that we can hold in
silent stillness in our hands -- forever if we
wish. They document not only where we have
been, but also point the way to where we
might perhaps be heading, whether or not we
realize this yet ourselves..." -- Judy Weiser
3. Cameras are now part of everyday life,
so photographic imagery has now
become part of the subconscious.
4. • Our aim is to help clients consciously probe,
and subsequently cognitively reintegrate, their
photo-precipitated insights in order to better
understand and improve their life.
• We strive to listen, understand, and help our
clients to express parts of themselves in a
creative way through the medium of
photography.
5. Taking photographs :-
• Occupies a wandering mind
• Lets you see the wonders of creation
• Will help you understand the importance of
appreciation
• Will bring a smile to your face.
6. The Logo

design and explain why we kept this simple.
7. The rationale
• Liv will go through the rationale with you and
what it means for our company.

13. Two examples of from our therapy
program
• The Calendar
• This is based on younger clients being involved
1. We will take photographs with the clients of
numbers from different sources.
14. Calendar continued
2. Then as a group we will print out and , make a
calendar using these numbers.
This will get younger clients looking at numbers
along with texture and colour. It also make them
work together in a group environment.
15. The object/word still life
• This is based on older clients becoming
involved
• It would also need a little preparation.
1. Firstly we would ask the clients to bring along
an object that had a personal meaning to
them.
2. Then we would ask them to describe what
that object means to them and how it makes
them feel.
16. 3. Then we would photograph the object in a
still life environment. (with the words and
without)
18. Advertising
1. We would set up a Facebook page and send invitations out to different organisations. This would include images of our work and
profiles of the four of us. This could also include a feedback page.
The link below is to Julia's Facebook photography page. I have shown it here as an example of above.

2. Twitter is also a good way to free advertise your company. Its a good way to network as you can follow other companies and
piggy back them.
3. Youtube is also a good way of free marketing oneself. We could put seminars on there and demonstrations and set up our own
page. Below is an example of this within the link.

5. Letter drops to various organisations (By hand and by post).
Delivering them by hand would be a good way to meet in person.
6. Professional letters wrote to different organisations and prisons etc explaining what we do and a price list along with contact
details.
7. Local free newspapers.
