A rising tide lifts all boats – JFK

I’m Abbie Sorabjee – property investor, developer and mentor. I founded Nala Coaching with the mission to empower women with the tools and know-how to create a lifestyle of their own design through the power of a profitable property portfolio.

Nala Coaching runs jargon-free, personalised and actionable coaching & courses for you to learn everything you need to create your own successful property investment business.

I founded Nala Coaching in 2019 to help other women, particularly other military spouses and partners, to do the same as me and achieve their own financial freedom through property. All of Nala Coaching’s services are available online, so you can access them flexibly from anywhere, but with the additional accountability of having me as a mentor to guide you.

I have been interested in photography for a good few years, and once I purchased my first DSLR camera, there was no stopping me. I’ve been capturing moments with my family ever since, and in 2010 I started taking pictures for the Interservice Karting Championships. This meant signing my life away to enter a live circuit to capture some great angles and trying not to get hit by the racers!

Capturing moments and memories is why I love my job. During outdoor family sessions, I like my clients to act like they are off for a family walk, and I am there to capture natural memories they can treasure forever.

I try to blur the limits of what photography I do. I am always willing to consider styled shoots and working with businesses to create something magical.

I have a passion for supporting other spouses trying to break into the photography world by teaching the tricks or the trade and working towards their own goals/dreams.

I am proud to dedicate my time to be a volunteer photographer for Remember My Baby supporting families requiring our services.
