About Steph

Manchester born.
World travelled.
Dubai based.

I grew up in Manchester where being straight-talking is basically a requirement. You work hard, say what you mean, and you don't put on a show you can't back up.

After years of travelling to places I never thought I'd see, I eventually landed in Dubai and thought, yeah, this is the one. Stunning city, incredible food, ridiculous sunsets, and people from every corner of the world.

What I do is simple: I create content that looks and feels like it came from a real person, not an ad agency. When it's done right, people stop scrolling. They watch. They trust. They buy. That's what I bring to every brand I work with.

Location Content

Dubai has some of the most incredible backdrops in the world. Hotel lobbies, rooftop pools, desert landscapes, marina walks. I know them all.

Why UGC

Why brands are moving away from traditional ads

People scroll past polished, obviously-branded content without a second thought. But when a video feels like it was made by someone who actually uses the product, something shifts. The scroll stops.

UGC bridges the gap between brand messaging and real human experience. It's affordable, versatile, and when it's done well, it outperforms traditional ad creative consistently.

  • Works across paid and organic channels without additional production
  • Builds trust faster than polished brand ads
  • Looks native to the platform, so it doesn't feel like an ad
  • Quick turnaround from brief to delivery
  • Can be used across Instagram, TikTok, Facebook Ads and more
