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 your company grows and you find yourself doing tasks that distract you from your core business, you need to get a virtual assistant. I did this last year, as I was recommended Emilie at Ashwood VA and I'm so glad that I did! Emilie is just the right level of assistance - always attentive and thorough and now an essential part of my team! I highly recommend her as a virtual assistant, now wouldn't be operating without her.

Photographers, when's the last time you updated the portfolio on your website?

As the craziness of peak season subsides, and with engagement season just around the corner, it's time to dive in and give your portfolio a refresh.

Remember, your portfolio is more than just a gallery of your favourite photos — it’s your visual pitch to future clients. 

So, ask yourself — is it showing the type of work you want more of? If you’re aiming to break into a new niche or attract a different kind of client, make sure your portfolio reflects that shift.

Your portfolio should evolve with you, always growing, always getting better. So, take this time to ensure it’s a true reflection of where you are now and where you want to go next.

What do you struggle most with when updating your portfolio? Whether it's time or selections, you're probably not alone. Drop your tips in the comments, and let's help each other out.
