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

Hello, I'm Emilie...

I provide diligent virtual assistant services to photographers, 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!

She has been fantastic from the start and always there to offer guidance, new ideas, support when I'm stuck and works at a pace I am comfortable with.

When we’re overwhelmed, we’re distracted.

And the things that fuel our creativity get lost beneath a pile of to-do lists.

Sure, getting more organised can help, but it’s not the whole solution.

Often, it’s about clearing the clutter: emotionally, mentally, physically.

So when you’re feeling burnt out, take a deep breath.

Then start byticking just one thing off your list - not to be productive, but to make space for your creativity to return.

Let me know how you get on!

Ever feel like you're just faking it in the photography world? Like someone's going to tap you on the shoulder and say, "Hey, you don't belong here!"

That'll be impostor syndrome chatting sh*t again.

Funny thing is, while you're busy doubting yourself, there's probably another photographer out there admiring your work and wishing they had your skills.

Pretty ironic, don't you think? 

So the next time impostor syndrome tries to steal your confidence:
👉 Read through your reviews from happy clients
👉 Cut back on the endless Insta-scrolling
👉 Celebrate others' wins (it doesn't diminish your own!)

My personal favourite? I keep a 'wins' folder on my phone with screenshots of nice feedback and achievements. It's my go to pick-me-up on tough days.

How do you battle the impostor blues?
