UK Virtual Assistant Emilie from Ashwood VA smiles as she cradles her VA awards

Hello, I'm Emilie...

I'm obsessed with my job; providing diligent virtual assistant services to photographers and empowering them with the freedom and opportunity to fulfil their vision.

My approach allows you to fully immerse yourself in your passions while I take care of the behind-the-scenes tasks.

With my cost-effective packages that adapt to your varying needs, I provide the breathing space you need to focus on what you love most – capturing moments behind the lens, without the weight of administrative tasks.

Since childhood, I've been fascinated by the "how's" and "why's". and that curiosity has stayed with me. I love the challenge of learning something new, or finding out why something does or doesn't work (which comes in very handy with the ever-evolving nature of social media!)

It's this curiosity and willingness to think outside the box that empowers me to bring fresh ideas to your business. I offer a unique perspective that can rejuvenate your business and help you stand out.

With Ashwood VA, I swoop in, giving you the support you need to focus on what you do best – capturing those magical moments through the lens. So, if you're a photographer looking for specialist support, let's chat!

Get in touch

When it comes to finding a VA you can't do any better than Emilie! She is fantastic and has absolutely transformed my business. Since she came on board I feel clearer and more organised and it has been such a pleasure working with her every day. From the moment we started working together she integrated into my business seamlessly, picking up the tasks I assigned to her quickly and doing them to a high standard. Emilie is very detail oriented, fantastic at using her initiative and isn't afraid to make helpful suggestions when it comes to streamlining processes and using both of our time as efficiently as possible. As a neurodivergent person I came to her with a list of things I was struggling with. She took the time to listen, ask the right questions and take it all on board and came up with a workflow that works well for both of us. I know how hard as a business owner to let go and outsource things when you are used to controlling it all yourself. But Emilie has proven to be the thing I needed all along and I'm so grateful to have her on board. I can't recommend her enough!

I get it, we've all been guilty of the ol' "post and ghost" routine. But getting leads for your photography business and building an audience on Instagram is about so much more than just dropping content and disappearing.

It's time to actually talk to your followers! (Wild concept, right? 😂)

Respond to those comments, slide into DMs, and show genuine interest in your audience. Because it's THIS kind of interaction that builds trust, loyalty, and can turn casual scrollers into followers, fans, and even clients!

It can be tough to keep up with blogging when you’re already juggling everything else, right?

‍
Whether you’re showcasing your favourite weddings, sharing behind-the-scenes moments, or giving future clients tips they’ll thank you for, those questionnaires can do the heavy lifting - covering both the research time and the inspo. All it takes is a little creativity, and you’ll be turning them into content that shows off your expertise and connects with potential clients.
