ABOUT

Hi, I’m Lucy!

I’m the founder of Acorn Marketing & Content Creation. I created Acorn to bring my two professional passions together — photography and marketing — and to offer a balanced, creative approach to brand storytelling. I graduated with a degree in Photography from the University of Huddersfield in 2020, and during my year in industry, I discovered a strong interest in marketing, gaining a deeper appreciation for its strategy, creativity, and ever-evolving possibilities.

Acorn enables me to work closely with businesses of all sizes, offering flexible support tailored to their unique needs. From photography and email marketing to Facebook advertising and day-to-day social media management, I’m here to step in as an extension of your team, by combining strategic marketing insight with strong visual storytelling. Alongside client work, I also share tips and insights from my journey across my own social media channels, helping businesses feel more confident in their marketing along the way.

    “Acorn are fabulous! They were able to take our idea of a ‘Made in Whitby Festival’ and promote/showcase it to exceed all expectations. The festival has achieved in year 1 what we expected to achieve in year 3. Acorns professional, keen eye’d committed approach and industry knowledge of social media/marketing certainly got us there. Whitby Sea Salt is one of three co-founders of the festival and would highly recommend them go get ‘you there’!”

    “Trying to sum this up in a short paragraph is nearly impossible, but I’ll do my best! Lucy is truly one of the most wonderful people I’ve ever met. Her passion, attention to detail, and warm, funny personality make working with her an absolute joy. From the moment I met her, I knew I wanted to book a shoot as soon as I could, and now, I have the best photos of myself for my business (which is saying a lot, as I usually hate pictures of myself!). I’ll be booking with her again, making it a yearly tradition with even more outfit changes (I did four this time!) Highly recommend!”

    “I've been feeling really stuck and burnt out with social media, I'm either great guns or I don't post for months at a time.  

    So I contacted Lucy at Acorn and asked to pick her brains and attempt to unpick what my social media could offer my followers new and old.  We sat and mind mapped everything and she helped with what people would find interesting and help pinned it all together for me.  I woke yesterday morning to an email that included all the information broken down into bitesized chunks and a calendar of what I should post and when!

    Thank you Lucy you are a super star, 5 star service x”

    "Can't recommend Lucy enough! I have been working with Mister Chips for a good few years now and it has been easy for the quality content to dry out, until now. Lucy’s work has give us content for at least the next year. To add, our engagement has increased and is already having an impact on customers coming to the restaurant.

    Also worth a mention these photos were all taken with a fairly busy restaurant, which you would think would make the job quite stressful. However, Lucy managed to organise efficiently and kept calm under pressure.

    Thank you!"

    “She visited my studio and took a series of great photos of my working, with products and did flat lays too. Really professional and I’m so pleased with the outcome of the photos. Great service and she’s always happy and smiley.”

    Would recommend Lucy, when we were setting up our business, and immersed in the renovations and boring admin stuff, it was great knowing Lucy had the launch campaign all in hand and we knew the costs upfront. 👌
