Stories That Inspire Action and Drive Impact.

Visual storytelling and narrative content for purpose-driven organisations.

People don’t connect with data—they connect with people.

That’s why powerful first-person storytelling is one of the most effective ways to create awareness, shift perceptions, and inspire action.

When you share the real voices behind your mission, you bring your cause to life, helping donors, partners, and communities see why their support matters.

Impact Storytelling Services


More than content creation—this is storytelling with purpose. I work with purpose-driven organisations to craft stories that are authentic, respectful, and strategic. Visuals and words that move hearts and mobilise support.

  • I create films and photo stories that put people at the heart of your mission—bringing your work to life through authentic, relatable narratives.

    These stories help audiences experience the real difference you make, building trust and emotional connection.

  • Numbers show outcomes. Stories show why they matter.


    I craft narratives that make your mission resonate—through impact reports, websites, and social platforms.

    My process combines interviews, research, and case studies to turn data into human-centred stories that build connection and trust.

  • Inclusive storytelling builds ownership and trust.

    I design and facilitate creative projects that put community voices at the centre of the story.

    Using participatory and co-designed methods, these initiatives ensure authentic representation and create meaningful engagement.

  • I can’t thank Janine enough for her amazing photos. She blew me away with how she brought these photos to life and captured my thoughts and feelings, and those of the members of the squad. Her professionalism and talent is so impressive, I can’t wait to tell everyone about her so they can experience the same quality of photography for their business.

Janine's imagery - which exudes warmth and feeling - is a perfect fit for our community-based organisation, as is Janine herself. She is professional and friendly, and she has a talent for moving unobtrusively through our events and still captures that perfect shot.

  • Janine took the time to understand my brand and what I required from both the outside lifestyle shoot and the yoga studio shoot. She was able to combine an outdoor branding shoot with a family shoot and made us all feel comfortable and relaxed. I'm so pleased with the results and I now have not only an excellent visual representation of my brand but some beautiful family memories too.

    Owner, Vanessa Kelly Yoga

  • I loved working with Janine. She completely understood what I was hoping to achieve, and was really easy to connect with whilst making arrangements and on the day of my photo shoot. Janine made me feel so completely at ease, and she took so much care and preparation in setting up amazing shots, all in her calm, kind and friendly way. I am absolutely thrilled with the gallery of photos she has produced and I could not be happier with the beautiful work she has done.
