Empowering Creativity Through Photography and Digital Solutions

Mission Statement:

My mission is to empower photographers, entrepreneurs, and digital creators to unlock their full creative potential through stunning visuals and innovative digital products. I aim to simplify the creative process with a range of easy-to-use resources, allowing you to focus on what truly matters—telling your story and connecting with your audience.

I also help Women Over 50 who want to start or grow their own businesses, by using digital entrepreneurship and creating financial independence. This is a passion of mine and I love to see women in their second act making money and becoming financially free.

My Story:

Hello! I’m Helen Oakes, a passionate photographer, entrepreneur and digital creator living in the beautiful South Island of New Zealand. Since 2007, I’ve been dedicated to capturing breathtaking images that tell compelling stories. My love for photography extends beyond the camera—I am also drawn to the post-processing side of things, where the real magic happens.

Over the years, I’ve specialized in shooting outdoor adventures, sports, dating photos, and commercial projects. You’ll often find me braving the elements while photographing iconic events like the Coast to Coast, Le Race, Marathons, and Adventure Races. For me, being out in nature and capturing its raw beauty is not just a job—it’s a passion.

But my journey didn’t stop there. In 2017, I faced the same struggles many photographers do—time-consuming editing processes and a lack of resources that could truly enhance my work. Frustrated by the limitations, I realized there was a gap in the market for unique, high-quality digital tools that could make the post-processing experience both faster and more creative.

Content Creation

I understand the challenges photographers, digital creators, and entrepreneurs face—limited time, complex editing processes, and the constant need to stand out in a crowded market. That’s why I dedicated myself to creating a comprehensive suite of digital resources for content creation and to simplify your workflow.

This is where my photography resources come into play; my Lightroom presets, Photoshop actions, textures and digital backdrops, are designed to help you create captivating visuals effortlessly and to save time in post production.

I also have a huge library of digital products, including templates, ebooks and digital resources, these are designed to help you with your existing business. I also have a massive bundle that can be resold with PLR, this can enable you to start your own business and work towards becoming financially free.
