1. Many people carry around with them an image of the kind
of person they wish they were – but what is needed is not
so much the effort to improve ourselves, as the effort to
become more aware of the beauty of what we already are...
Tim Gallwey – The Inner Game of Tennis
2. I see greater range in myself than I had allowed through the warmth and honesty
of Penny's pictures and her intuitive way of working .
Richard Spence, Executive Coach, Clear Pictures
3. ... there was one photo that really touched me - what I saw was a
woman with strength, someone interested and curious about life. This
picture reminds me that I have the resources I need,
whenever I need them.
Sarah Cashin. Executive Coach
4. Pennyʼs unique photoVoyage programme is an
optional experience for Ann Lewis Coachingʼs
“Back on Track” clients, giving them new,
authentic perspectives on their identity and
presence. These are clients who have suffered
confidence-damaging experiences at work, and
for whom the affirmation achieved through
photoVoyage can be uplifting.
Ann Lewis. Leadership Coach
5. As an executive coach I understand the need for a strong
sense of Impact and Presence.
photoVoyage shows this ... and provides a rare opportunity
for us to see ourselves as others see us
John Leary-Joyce CEO AoEC
6. Penny helped my client explore and develop flexibility
around the different ways he presented himself to clients,
colleagues and friends. His confidence was boosted by the
experience. The session provided time for in-depth
reflection, and the skillful photography, relaxing atmosphere
and instant impressions enabled my client to use the time
extremely effectively. A good investment.
Sarah, Corporate Coach.
7. These photos helped crystallise how I come across as a coach and leader
Libby, Executve coach
8. For as long as I can remember I have hated having my photo taken. Penny's
approach to my photoVoyage allowed me to relax and be honest about 'me
and who I am’, as well as how I look.
I have learnt to like myself - 'warts and all' !
Sue Pegg, Director of Open Programmes AoEC
9. Penny captured Individual
expressions, body language and
group interaction – all of which
will be used in de-briefing or
co-coaching sessions.
Corporate L&D programme director
10. These photographs captured a
provocative range of expressions –
some quite intense others very subtle,
that can be used as a unique and
fascinating springboard for deeper
discussion, therapeutic purposes or
coaching sessions… I had thought I
knew what I looked like from snapshots,
but these are different – so immediate,
so direct. There is no artifice of any sort
between me and the camera.
Alexandra, Business Programme Development executive
11. photoVoyage helped me distinguish between how I hope to be seen
when I am working as a coach ... and when I am working as a
developer of coaches.
Marion Gillie, The Gillie Partnership
12. How often do you look at your picture and see the real person beneath?
This is what photoVoyage offers you...you get to see yourself in a new
light and bring forward your signature strengths.
ISN’T THAT WHAT GOOD COACHING DOES TOO ?
Peter Wilson, executive coach, faculty AoEC.
