Meet Marie Claire Ashcroft - photographer, authenticity strategist, and the force behind The Professional Rebel. With her trademark smile and infectious energy, you'd never guess her background in depression and low self-esteem. But it's exactly this journey that makes her approach so powerful - she's lived the transformation she guides others through.


Using a potent combination of photography, coaching, and strategy, Marie-Claire guides creative entrepreneurs, change-makers, and unconventional thinkers in embracing their fullest, most genuine selves, find their own paths and define success on their terms. Her mission? To help you throw every carefully crafted mask and suffocating 'should' into the Fuck-It Bucket.


Featured in Virgin Entrepreneur, Standard Issue Magazine, and the Counsellors Directory as a happiness expert, she's guided hundreds of people across the globe to step into their authentic power.


Marie-Claire's unique approach combines deep empathy with refreshing irreverence, helping her clients develop unshakeable confidence and authority in their own right. Whether through her lens or her coaching, she creates a space where people can finally dare to be the "YOU-est" version of themselves - in both life and business.
