Simon Meyer and Rachael Meyer have been providing high quality stills, short films and editing services for a wide range of global, national and regional commercial clients since 2008. They're easy to work with, always meet deadlines, and have many long-standing clients. Combining their technical, creative and people skills, they specialise in corporate and event photography, story-led, interview style short-form documentary films and event highlights videos for websites, social media and awards evenings. 

Simon Meyer is a highly experienced, PR, portrait, conference and event photographer, videographer, editor and CAA licensed drone operator. ​With a background in London advertising agency photography (pack shots and products), and with years of promotional, surveillance and scenes of crime police photography and videography experience, he is the technical backbone of The Northern Storyboard and splits his time between filming, photographing and editing corporate and community work. He also offers filming and editing of funerals.

Rachael Meyer is a qualified and creative PR, portrait and editorial photographer, video producer and editor. She's also a professional writer and interviewer, and a trained public speaker. ​Rachael's background is in B2B Public Relations. and strategic communications. After many years of commercial writing and photography, a passion for producing emotional, story-led videos for Community Foundations and Local Heroes Awards evenings heralded a new focus on people-centric work, communities that people live in, and the rollercoaster of life stories. In 2019, she trained to be a Humanist Celebrant and to date, alongside her photography and video work, has written and delivered over 250 story-led ceremonies - many of which have had strong audio/visual components.

Rachael says, "When we are photographing, interviewing and filming, people tell us that they feel comfortable with us. We have a lot of life experience and have worked across many different industries and professions, so we can talk to anyone from the CEO of a global corporation to a parent who's just lost their child to cancer. Whether we're taking photos, making videos or writing and presenting ceremonies, we are inclusive, reassuring, reliable and consistently easy to work with."

The Northern Storyboard's clients are corporate communications teams, businesses, PR and marketing agencies, charitable, educational and government organisations, healthcare providers, media companies, content creators and individuals sharing important life events.
 

With a can-do attitude, our style is friendly, inquisitive, collaborative and story-led. Our visual work and our ceremony work come highly recommended. We are known for our excellent working relationships and high quality of work.

 

We understand regional identity, civic context, and the power of a good story. We also understand the need to creatively disseminate information succinctly to your community - whoever your community is.
