THE ladies of Coolum were calling the shots in a photography exhibition, launched at the Business Women's Network breakfast on March 8.

The 13 participating women directed their own photos and wrote captions to represent their identity, shying away from labels such as their job titles.

Photographer John Dumble said the project helped him understand the complexities of women.
