Training, Mentoring & Educational Resources for Filmmakers
Learn the skills to master videography, grow your business and build a better work-life blend
I GET IT. I FEEL THE SAME WAY AS YOU DO
Passionate about my work and at the same time, a slave to my business. I totally relate to those feelings that being an entrepreneur and an artist sometimes feels like two entities.
I understand that it matters you’re passionately invested in your work. Evolve is about becoming better at what you do, taking your business to the next level, but without compromise, and it’s about falling in love with your work again.
TURNING YOUR PASSION INTO YOUR JOB IS EASIER THAN FINDING A JOB THAT MATCHES YOUR PASSION …
EVOLVE IS ALL ABOUT YOU & YOUR BUSINESS
There’s no better time to invest in yourself – to take your videography from ordinary to extraordinary, shape your brand, grow your business, make more money and feel more fulfilled.
Our work together will enable you to create your own success, without compromise, with me as your guide, advocate, trainer and mentor.
Here’s how…

“Emma is an icon to touch. I have seized every opportunity to take advantage of any mentoring she offers and my business now proudly and confidently offers videography alongside photography. And while nothing compares to a happy client, I am still most proud when Emma approves of my work.”
-Natascha, Belle & Sass
“Show Emma a piece of work and she will know within seconds how you could make it even better.
She is an excellent storyteller, knows everything about gear and is a one of a kind teacher. I know I succeeded with a wedding film when she has nothing more to add.”
-Isa, Belle & Sass

“Emma’s work is as stunning as the scenery your eyes are awarded with as you travel through Switzerland. ‘Story Of Your Day’ is not only worth a view but a long lingering visit as you settle back with your favourite poison and take in the work of a filmmaker who’s truly learnt what the movie button was intended for on a DSLR or mirrorless camera”
Neale James
The Fujicast
“Emma is one of Europe’s top female wedding filmmakers and helping to level the playing field in a predominantly male industry. She has twenty year’s BBC filmmaking under her belt and ten years shooting weddings which, quite frankly, is like being an Olympic athlete of video. She is not only a leading female wedding videographer trainer but the only videographer who specialises in educating and inspiring female filmmakers.”
