About me

Hi, I'm Emma, a German creator living in Auckland since 2023. I fell in love with the Kiwi lifestyle, the slower pace and the endless nature right at my doorstep.

I create short form videos that feel like real life: intentional storytelling, soft natural light and an effortless "romanticizing life" aesthetic. I script, film and edit everything myself in CapCut and Canva, with hooks built to keep people watching. I work with brands in New Zealand and German-speaking markets, filming in English, German and Spanish.

Kind words

Emma was a pleasure to work with! Her communication was fast and efficient and the final content is perfect. We would highly recommend. We would definitely be interested in working together in the future.

Charlie · Allure, jewellery

I absolutely loved the reel you created for Oracle Altar. You really captured the aesthetic and feeling of the Morning Lumina incense so beautifully! I'd love to work together again in the future.

Case Studies

Brand collaborationJewellery

Allure: Unboxing & Gifting

A satisfying unboxing that makes the gift feel personal.

A clean, aesthetic product showcase built around the photo-projection feature, projecting a personal memory through the stone. Close-ups, soft pink tones and clear steps turn product value into an instant "must-have" for gifting.

Result: the brand would love to work together again.

Brand collaborationWellness

Oracle Altar: Morning Ritual

A slow, cozy morning that puts the product in a real home.

  • Product integration: the incense appears naturally inside a calm morning routine.
  • Sensory storytelling: coffee pouring, the first light, calm text overlays for long watch time.
  • Result: the brand asked for my rates for future paid collaborations.
Sample projectTalking head

Meet the Creator

Straight to camera, in English, with a hook in the first second.

A short intro filmed directly to camera with word-by-word captions. I share who I am and why I understand families: I'm a registered early childhood teacher in Auckland. This format works well for founder-style ads, testimonials and product explainers, especially for family, kids and education brands.

Everyday BB Cream Review

Direct to camera, honest and easy to trust.

An authentic beauty review that builds trust fast. Clear benefits like hydration and light coverage, paired with a natural, relatable application, keep viewers watching until the end.

Sample projectLifestyle & travel

A Little Life in New Zealand

A mini vlog about intentional living, from the car to the beach.

Smooth transitions, word-by-word captions and immersive sound design. This is the format I use to place a product inside a day people want to live, ideal for travel, fashion and lifestyle brands.

Iced Matcha Moment

Bright colour, satisfying close-ups, then real life.

A playful product shot on a colour-matched set that cuts to the drink being enjoyed outside. Short, loopable and made for cafés, drink brands and kitchenware.

Sample projectTalking head

Hi, I'm Emma

A warm, personal intro that feels like chatting with a friend.

Filmed at home with bold word-by-word captions and a relaxed, confident delivery. I talk about romanticizing everyday life and capturing the little details. This style works well for brand-ambassador content, creator intros and "why I love this" testimonials.

Emigration Guide: Writing & Marketing

From idea to product to sales, all done myself.

Barfuß am anderen Ende der Welt is a self-published German guide for early childhood teachers and au pairs moving to New Zealand, written and designed from scratch in Canva Pro. I market it through storytelling and short form video on TikTok and Instagram, turning viewers into buyers. The video is filmed in German: a personal story that leads naturally into the product.
