About
Lu Bowan is a photography consultant and editor with 20 years' experience collaborating with visual artists, commercial, editorial and art-based clients. She has worked in artist and agency management and serves as Head of Photography at Making Pictures, and lectures at Southbank University. Tailored Guidance & Career Development Build confidence, refine your photographic voice and develop clearer creative direction. Together we focus on goal based strategies, creating a stronger presence with purpose, and shaping work and communication in ways that open up opportunities. We also work on developing sustainable approaches that support longevity, helping you build long term industry relationships and a career that can evolve over time. Visual Audits & Reviews In depth reviews across websites, portfolios, social platforms, pitches and personal projects. Honest, constructive feedback designed to strengthen visual consistency, clarify positioning and improve how your work is being received and absorbed by the industry and your target network. Coaching Supportive but direct coaching focused on growth, confidence and momentum. Through goal setting, accountability, reflection and identifying blind spots, we work to shift perspective, reshape process and reconnect intentions with action. I’ll also add an updated bio and image next week. One other thought — my brand/client list is now so extensive due to the agenting side of my career that I wonder whether “Collaborators” feels more succinct? Or perhaps there’s space to instead feature a selected list of photographers/artists I’ve worked with over the years?
