It's a day job thing.
To you, your book is your baby, but to the world, it's a product. Like all products, there's an element of marketing in order to attract and grow your readership and ultimately sell more copies. As an author, that's probably not your favourite job, but as professional photographer and videographer, it is mine.
For more than a decade, I've been creating unique marketing visuals to help others grow their businesses. Let me arm you with some gorgeous images and video content of your book to help maximise your visibility and stop potential readers from scrolling on by.
You know you need visuals. That's where I come in. This is a bespoke service where you send me your book, as well as answers to a questionnaire, then I'll source props to bring your book to life in photos and video for use in your marketing. You'll receive a media suite of visuals which you can use on your website, in emails, on social media, and in print marketing.
£75 per book (£50 per book in series of 3 or more books)
A small suite of 15-second video clips related to your book to use and reuse as backgrounds for social media posts.
Approx. 40 images with vertical and horizontal variety to use in print, on your website, in your emails, and in social media marketing.
A 30-second video trailer of your book set to licensed music.
A copy of your trailer without audio for maximum flexibility so you can add your own text and sounds on social media.
BONUS: A list of ways to use your new visuals, including a list of social media post ideas.
OMG x infinity! They are f**king incredible. I am so completely overwhelmed with gratitude. Never did I EVER anticipate having such beautiful photos of my book. I have looked longingly at all the beautiful bookstagram photos and never been able to take any, and I just... thank you so much.
