Blogging is undoubtedly pretty hard work. It's a role that asks a lot of us sometimes - compiling that perfect flatlay, putting together a kick-ass media kit, header designs, marketing your blog, running several social media accounts, designing business cards and maintaining a website are just a few of the tasks you might have manage as part of your career. Not to mention that most bloggers work full time jobs or juggle a part time job with studying - and this teamed with all the admin blogging requires can take hours and hours of our timeI often find that there's simply not enough hours in the day to relax or enjoy myself, after I've completed my endless to do lists.

Some areas of blogging which I struggle with are snapping the perfect OOTD, getting action shots of myself and portrait photography. I don't really have anyone on-hand to shoot with me, as I pout away with a raging duckface. My camera self-timer skills are weak and my arms aren't quite long enough to snap the shot I have in mind; which is difficult, as I want to look professional

I'll often spend hours and hours trying to master this skill and still not be happy - which is why there's a distinct lack of my face on my blog. I could totally do with some help - and my spare time back!

I'm sure I'm not alone in feeling this way - there are many areas of my life other than blogging that I could do with some help with too; it's pretty universal that adulting is tough bloody work.

I chose to seek out Portrait Photography, as I want to get some professional looking shots for my blog and social media profiles that aren't blatantly taken by me and my 99p Selfie Stick. The kind of questions I was asked were:

- What type of photography do you need?
- Do your photos require a backdrop?
- Where will these photos be taken?
- How will these photos be used?
- How many shots do you need?

which were all multiple choice questions & dead easy to complete. Each of your answers will determine the kinda quote you'll need and the most appropriate businesses on the list.

You won't have to wait long to hear back them either - your job will be broadcasted instantly to relevant local businesses registered on the site and you should get your first bid within hours. Browse company profiles and compare bids, until you're happy you have the right pro for the job.

I really enjoyed my experience with Bidvine and it's a website I'd definitely recommend to others who are looking to take back some of their precious free time and enjoy themselves. It can be difficult to ask for help when you're not sure where to turn or who to ask - but this handy site takes care of all the hassle for you!
