Fresh Banter with Giles Christopher ,Food, Drink & Hospitality Photographer
Fresh Banter with Giles Christopher, the food, drink and hospitality photographer
Giles and I met many years ago through his wife and business partner Abi, and since then we have all worked on a lot of jobs together and have spent a lot of time together socially chatting about business and life.
He got some great advice from his Dad about offering to do things nobody else likes to do at work and making himself a valuable team member and sound found he had multiple job offers …
He’s run his own business for over 20 years and we talk about how basic business skills should be part of the curriculum for everyone nowadays
He shares about the prep that goes into shoots and how technology has changed the job so much and how much time photographers now spend in post production too. And about the sheer weight of kit that he takes to 'location' shoots too.
Giles loves tech and is always pushing himself to learn new ways of doing things , or master new equipment and he also talks about keeping up with and ahead of that if you can
A really interesting insight into all that food and drink photography involves, and some great tips for podcasts and business blogs to watch out for too.
I’m really pleased we managed to book Giles for a chat in this last episode of series 3…
Let me introduce you to Giles Christopher

Fresh Banter with David Koenig- Green (https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-koenig-green-csci-fifst-frsph-22b29512/), Food technologist , BRCGS and SALSA consultant….and no, that is not a dance or a tomato based sauce!
David is our go to technologist within the business because he can distil down a seemingly complicated issue into a few actions you need to take in order to become compliant or for best practice. We have been working with him for close to 14 years .
We love working alongside him on label wording and layout , trying to strike a balance between what we must say, can’t say and would really like to say – so we get a legal label that uses the best of good practice to make it easy for consumers to understand and with enough marketing to help the product sell
Hear what the Christmas present was that shaped David’s career ….
What food he can never get too much of …
What products and categories he thinks we will see more development and growth in this year
What advice he would give to others starting their own consultancy as a food technologist

Fresh Banter with Darren Foley, Founder of FLY the Boutique Brand and Design Consultancy
Fresh Banter with Darren Foley (https://www.linkedin.com/in/darren-foley-fly/)Founder of FLY boutique brand and design agency
Darren and I were introduced many years ago when he joined my Fresh Banter mastermind group and he is still part of a tight knit group that developed from that.
It’s invaluable for business owners and leaders to have somewhere they can:
discuss issues with peers,
learn from others
expect honest answers to difficult questions.
Having left school, a friend suggested he may want to apply to be a junior designer in her work place and as soon as he went there he knew he had found his tribe! He spends time now talking about careers in design to younger people to help them understand all the opportunities that creative industries offer.
Darren loves working with food and drink brands and has recently taken a non exec directorship at Soda Folk – he relishes being involved from every angle of the business and adding value throughout.
He’d like to think people can see his integrity and depth of knowledge, and that in turn builds their trust in what he can deliver for them.
He talks about:
Whether challenger and icon are the most useful ways to describe businesses
How he values a business partner he can bounce ideas off,
We laugh about what our Mums think about the work we do.
Darren loves to be around positive creative people and to have access to nature and outdoor space.
He has some good advice for people starting out and his list of things you can never get ‘too much’ of is extensive.
Wherever you are listening, I know you will enjoy this podcast and get something that resonates from it too.
