Finding her purpose in life as "the ultimate wing-woman", Tigz helps others to reconnect with their bodies and boost their self-confidence and self-worth through life-affirming photographic experiences that help them feel 'seen' as their authentic self.

By capturing the beauty she sees in people, she enables her clients to begin dismantling their body image issues and spark a love affair with themselves.

Working with clients from all backgrounds, Tigz's photography supports her clients to reclaim their bodies after life-changing events including cancer treatment, surgical procedures, trauma and abuse.

The f:Entrepreneur campaign was launched in 2017 to raise greater awareness of the impact of incredible female business owners across the country, and help provide inspiration and role models to the wider small business community.

Delivered by Small Business Britain – the leading champion of small businesses in the UK - the campaign offers a host of events, training, and networking opportunities to boost skills, capability, and confidence.

The f:Entrepreneur ‘#ialso100’ line-up particularly sets out to showcase trailblazing female founders who lead purpose-driven businesses alongside a roster of other responsibilities, such as volunteering, mentoring and community support.

Tigz Rice was also acknowledged for her large international and diverse following, along with being a proud supporter of the LGBTQIA+ community.

On being featured in the line-up, Tigz said: “One of the phrases I'm often heard saying is 'a rising tide lifts all boats' and I'm as passionate about levelling up my own brand as I am about lifting those around me, especially when it comes to celebrating the success of other women doing incredible things.

"So to be recognised in this year’s list among such extraordinary talent, in particular for the work I do to try and make my business a safe and inclusive space for all, is a genuine honour.”
