Responsibilities
2023
As Head of Creative I work closely with the Head of Brand to bring to life the marketing calendar and category re-design through visuals and creative assets. The first thing I introduced was in-house model photoshoots as the brand was heavily depending on brand imagery which caused a lack of synergy and opportunity to cross-sell which is one of the main USP of the business - to be able to shop multiple brands in one place. I am responsible for ideation, production, budget management and running of shoots. This is now a profitable element of the business.
2021
I was brought into the Creative Team in a freelance capacity to overhaul the imagery for digital use across Social, Web and CRM.
The existing imagery, seen below, lacked personability and felt static and cold. My aim was to bring freshness to the brand by creating lifestyle imagery that would feel aspirational but attainable to the customer. They needed to relate to the brand and its ethos and I played into the key search terms for the brand in order to capture their new audiences.
Examples of imagery prior to my input below.

Life Chapters | 2024 Campaign
Brief
As part of the category re-design we are looking to focus on the chapters of life we go through, how our needs evolve and priorities change. Naturisimo can be there for every stage of life and you shouldn't have to compromise on your beauty, skincare or wellness routine throughout these transitions.
Inspiration
Inspired by real stories of our customers, the challenges they face through health, age and skin concerns. We want our customers to recognise their own journey through this campaign. It should feel real and attainable and showcase connection within a female community.

Found Imagery | 2021
Brief
There is a lack of continuity across the brand due to the different sources of imagery. Collate across the brand-supplied imagery and found resources that will provide consistency across social, web and CRM.
Inspiration
Fun, playful imagery that evokes wellbeing and a clean lifestyle.
Mixing model imagery with close-up textures of product.
Models have a range of skin needs and shouldn't be airbrushed, making the brand feel more accessible.
