This is our story

 

Under the creative banner of The Northern Storyboard, Simon and Rachael Meyer have amalgamated over 20 years of photography, videography, writing and communications skills to help businesses, communities and individuals share their stories. Now planted firmly in the creative hub of The Fish Quay, in North Shields, where the River Tyne meets the North Sea, they have roots in North Yorkshire and London. Both are trained and experienced photographers and video producers. From the North East, they both work around the UK on high profile commercial photography and video content for businesses, charities and public service organisations. They also work on regeneration, cultural, and small business promo video projects locally.

 

With a PR background, Rachael is also a creative writer and trained presenter who has been an accredited celebrant for eight years. In addition to her photography and video storytelling, she creates and delivers highly regarded wedding and funeral ceremonies in the North East and North Yorkshire.

 

In a nutshell, Simon and Rachael combine extensive technical, people and creative skills in one holistic storytelling package called The Northern Storyboard.

 

What does The Northern Storyboard do?

 

​ - PHOTOGRAPHY AND VIDEO for businesses, charities, public services and community organisations: PR & Editorial,  Conferences & Exhibitions,   Events and Awards, Commercial Video Services.  Business Portraits,  Community Storytelling and Documentary Videos

 

We don't just rock up with cameras and a shoot sheet. We are good at talking to people, putting them at ease, finding the story, and understanding the whole picture.  We take photos of people, buildings, conferences, exhibitions, corporate events and awards shows. We help clients conceptualise their story. We understand assignments, we interview people from all walks of life, and film and edit using our artistic license, and your brief. Our story-led videos  educate, increase brand awareness, document people's lives, celebrate culture, and drive pride in place.

​

- LIFE STORIES: Humanist weddings, funerals, memorials, life story videos and funeral filming.

 

For couples and families who are organising important life events, Rachael is an experienced humanist celebrant, who writes, narrates and presents detailed, beautiful and memorable ceremonies that share life and love stories.
