every shot has a purpose
01

Content shoots

This isn't just another content day. It's a planned, brand-building shoot at your place, so you walk away with weeks of photos and video that actually look like your business.

  • A full shoot plan
  • All equipment provided
  • Professional pictures and video
  • Ready-to-post content
  • All raw footage included

Social media management

We take your accounts off your plate. It starts with a proper strategy: who you're talking to, what your competitors are doing, and the content pillars that tell us exactly what to post. No random posting or guessing.

  • Bespoke content strategy
  • Ideal client personas
  • Competitor analysis
  • Content pillars
  • Engaging, on-brand posts
03

UGC content

Natural, talk-to-camera videos made for your brand. The kind of content that feels like a recommendation from a real person, because people buy from people.

  • Product and brand videos
  • Made for reels and ads
  • Hauls and unboxings
How to work with us

A strategic shoot, not a guessing game.

Every shoot follows the same four steps, so nothing gets missed on the day and every shot earns its place on your feed.

Step 01

onboarding form

A detailed questionnaire on your USPs, services, target audience and content preferences. The more we know up front, the better.

Step 02

content strategy

We analyse your audience, build ideal client personas, check out the competition and set your content pillars.

Step 03

shoot plan

Before we pick up a camera, we plan the whole shoot with you: service in action, headshots, branded shots and behind the scenes.

Step 04

shoot day

We come to you with all the kit, keep it relaxed in front of the camera, then hand over ready-to-post content plus every raw file.

From concept to content shoot.

How we helped bring a product launch to life.

A full shoot plan first

Before we even picked up the camera, we worked with Sweet Bronze to plan every shot in advance. That meant every shot had a purpose.

Flavours you can almost taste

We used food, texture and playful visuals to tease the new product flavours, and made the scents impossible to ignore.

Everything for the launch

Models, make-up artist, launch content for social, and a full set of new product images for the website, all from one shoot.

About Glow Up Socials

Hi, I'm Keely.

I help business owners grow their business, create engaging content and build a brand people remember, all through the power of social media.

I'm a CPD certified Social Media Manager and Virtual Assistant, based in Manchester. My view is simple: stop hiding behind your logo or filters. People buy from people, especially in service-based businesses, and your audience wants to see you.

So every shoot starts with getting to know you properly, and ends with content that looks and sounds like your business. Not a template, and not a stock photo in sight.
