Storytelling Video & Photography Lincoln

Hi,

I’m Steph

Here’s a few fun facts you probably dont need to know:

  1. I swapped a logo design for photography lessons. Solid trade.

  2. Pineapple DOES belong on pizza. Not sorry.

  3. I learned by shooting any willing victim (I mean, participant).

  4. I accidentally launched a creative career via TikTok.

  5. I like moody lighting, great music, and overly ambitious personal projects.

The founder of Capture the Curious.
Your creative, idea-oozing brand photographer and videographer based in Lincoln (and all-round coffee fiend).

I create story-driven photography and cinematic video content for bold businesses, creative brands, and spaces that actually have something to say. Whether you're launching, growing, or ready to shake off the beige, I help you show up with visual storytelling that's full of narrative, nuance, and real meaning (and most importantly, helps you gain customers and get booked!)

Sound Familiar?

We need more bookings!

‘‘We don’t stand out online’’

‘‘DIY content or outdated imagery’’

‘‘We rely on word-of-mouth, but want to grow…’’

‘‘Guests bounce off our site/socials!’’

‘‘Guests don’t feel what makes us special’’

‘‘Our visuals don’t feel like the in-person experience’’

‘‘We’ve got generic or soulless photography’’

No-shows or ghost bookings

Here’s how we fix that

Lights. Camera. YOU.

It all starts with a problem.
No bookings. No connection. A brand that looks fine — but doesn’t feel like you.

I create photography and video that fix that.

I listen to your story, your values and what you want to shout about.

Together, we curate a brand film and stills that speak to your ideal audiences…

So they stay longer, trust faster, and choose you over someone else AND help you rank on Google.

Because attention is just the start. What you do with it? That’s everything.

My process:

Simple. Supportive.Strategic.

We Chat

We talk about your story, your vibe, your goals — and what kind of reaction you want your video or photos to create and what you want it to do for your business.

Creative Planning

We figure out what needs to be said — and how to say it with feeling. I head into the lab (aka my brain) to develop a vision that captures your essence and aligns with your audience.
Together, we build a loose storyboard that ties back to the original concept (and keeps the chaos in check).
Mood, shot list, message, must-haves — we’ll pin it all down before we hit record or click.

You relax, I shoot

Whether we’re in your venue, on location, or a bubble bath (hey, it happens), I direct and shoot with calm, confident energy — even camera-shy clients leave saying “that was actually fun.”
We’ll capture more than we need so we’ve got plenty to play with in the edit.You just show up I’ve got it from here.

You get your story, ready to share

Once the shoot’s wrapped, I’ll head into edit mode — crafting a first cut that reflects the story, tone, and emotion we planned. You'll receive a review link within 10–14 days so you can comment, tweak, or just say "YES, THIS."

Once it's signed off, I’ll send over your high-quality final cuts — ready to post, share, or premiere. No fuss, no stress, just visualst that’s ready to connect.
