Tools of the Trade

I want to share with you some of the tools I use in creating content, editing photos, hosting my courses, and so much more! The ones that are bold I use daily. Just to be transparent, when you click on these links, I may receive a small commission at no cost to you. I appreciate the clicks, as I can buy maybe a cup of coffee or two to keep fueled up and create more relevant content! 🙂

Camera

My professional camera is a Sony A7C with various interchangeable lenses, but my favourite is the 24-70mm one. See more in the Sony Store.

Instagram Post Planning

Planoly – scheduling for Instagram

Hosting Courses

Thinkific

Creating Graphics

Canva – Pro and free version

As a designer for over 30 years, I’m well-versed in Adobe Creative Suite, so I edit images using LightRoom on my iPhone and laptop.

Canva’s Color Palette Generator allows you to upload a photo and it will automatically generate a palette for you, or you can choose from a selection of ready-made palettes.
