OH, HELLO, HI, SPICY CANDID TRAILER DROP! 🖐️🎤🚨🌶️

considering we’re 🎀 just girlies 🎀 with no business experience, only a year after we launched our concept above a tiinnnyy lil coffee shop, we’ve made the big dreamy move to Portobello Road… Candid is supercharged with self-love, community and empowerment and instead of welcoming you to our “90s loft bedroom” - it’s now your cosy, gorgeous lounge and we cannot wait for you to get comfy here.

it’s been touch and go renovating this new studio in less than a month to make sure it’s perfection for you all! we’ve got brand new equipment, small biz retail, 3x coloured backgrounds, a retro photo booth, ALL THE VIBES and one of the most important things… we now have step-free access! 🫶

Notting Hill, we’re ready for our close-up! 📸✨

aimee + lily
sisters + co-founders xoxox

running a business together for 3 years has been the most fun, rewarding, chaotic, stressful, hilarious ride ever… so we decided to blow off some steam and celebrate with a rage room 🤪

highly recommend xoxo @smashitrageroom

three years ago we opened a self-portrait studio above a coffee shop in kensington with no business plan, no investor deck, and frankly, no clue.

20,000+ self-portraits later. 350+ five star reviews later. one studio move, one membership launch, a thousand “are we actually doing this” spirals later...

we’re three. and somehow still standing.

to every single one of you who has ever sat in front of our cameras, told a friend, sent us a dm at 11pm, booked a shoot when you were terrified, hyped yourself up in our mirror, walked out feeling like THAT girl, this is for you. you made this happen. we just held the space.

🎂 the candid birthday bundle is live on the website til 24th may. our way of saying thank you. link in bio.

love you. love you. love you. aimee + lily x

it’s tough out here y’all.

50% of small businesses don’t make it to three years.

on the year we opened candid in 2023, more uk businesses closed than opened for the first time in over a decade.

tomorrow, that studio turns three.

i wrote the odds down because it’s tough out here.

and because somehow, we’re still going. and the thing I’m building may just help you with that.

confidence to launch is the thing i wish i’d had before i jumped. before the investment round, before the lease, before i said the idea out loud.

i’m taking ten people. doors close end of the month or when we hit ten, whichever comes first.

if you’re reading this far, let’s goooo.

we wanted to give 5 people a moment to themselves at candid. to celebrate and feel the shift of putting you first.

to apply:
1. tag yourself or someone who needs this.
2. dm or comment your answer: “why would this experience mean something to you/them, right now?”
3. follow @candidstudios_ and @counterpoisewellness.
