*Inquire about flat rates instead of hourly!* I'm a San Francisco based photographer and writer who specializes in creating content for small businesses, artists, and new creators. From local event photography to remote product photography, I can help shine a light on you and your vision. I can also write content for your blogs, websites, descriptions and more to add a more rounded content vision. I'm a former journalist and event photographer with over 12 years of experience in the field, so know that your projects are in good hands! I also love to work with creators such as makeup artists, models, fashion designers, lifestyle bloggers, and more with providing stylish and creative photography and/or content writing for their websites and social channels. I can help a new creator get started when they may not know the first steps to starting out. I do events from small parties, corporate networking events, festivals, cultural ceremonies and more. The only events I do not cover at the moment are weddings. While Upwork has an hourly rate, I love working in packages and fixed-rate contracts, so don't hesitate to reach out if you prefer a flat rate, I'm happy to talk details about that. Please note the hourly rate includes editing and processing time in addition to photography, while a flat-rate package would be just a standard cost, so it's often a better option! For photography, I do not give out unedited RAW images or JPGS. All final images are edited by me, but I can let you select your favorites before editing if you prefer!Copyediting

Hi there and thanks for checking me out. I'm an independent writer and editor, based in San Francisco, CA and with over 25 years of experience in the beauty business. An award-winning journalist and former beauty director in the UK, I've worked across a broad range of titles, from glossy bi-monthly magazines to the fast-paced digital market. Yes, I'm a Brit, but I've worked in the US for over 10 years now and have seamlessly adapted both my style of writing and my spelling to suit the North American market. Beauty is my passion and I can adapt my writing to suit all requirements – from web creation and product pages through to blog writing and promotional content. Here are a few words from previous employers to give you a taste of who I am in the workplace... Jane Ennis, Editorial Director, Reveal Magazine, Hearst UK "Georgia is a rare animal: a beauty writer that not only knows her subject backwards, but can really write. She has a wonderfully humorous style that keeps you reading as you painlessly absorb useful facts. In my very long career, I have worked with dozens of beauty editors and would rank her in my top three. (She's also conscientious, meets deadlines, keeps within budget and is very charming.)" Liz McCarthy, Founding Partner at Lizzie Loves Ltd. UK "I first met Georgia on a beauty advertising campaign, when she was employed by the brand as thought leader and authority in her field. She added value at every level, and during the time she advised on the campaign the brand went from unknown to market leader. Since then I have worked with Georgia across a number of roles, where she has brought her knowledge and dynamism to a wide range of skills from editor and writer, to mentor and social media expert." If you think I'd be a good fit for a forthcoming project, please feel free to reach out to me at any time. I look forward to hearing from you. Thanks, Georgia. (updated: 03/03/23)Copyediting

I received my Bachelor of Science from University of California, Berkeley. Shortly after graduating from university, I joined the corporate world, but after some soul searching, I realized that lifestyle wasn't for me. I jumped into freelancing as an alternative and that has allowed me to pursue my dreams of traveling the world full-time. I am currently a contracted copy editor for Proofed, so I work as a professional editor and proofreader already, but I am interested in taking on more freelance projects beyond my typical workload. I have a background and a strong interest in editing fiction, narrative nonfiction, and ESL/EAL documents. Due to my university education being interdisciplinary and centered around the natural sciences, I also find great joy in working with academic texts and research articles, especially those related to disciplines such as biology, ecology, geology, etc. That being said, I am well-versed in editing business documents (business proposals, marketing copy, emails, adverts, presentation slides, formatted text) and I have direct experience working in that sector myself. I have an expert command of the English language and I can edit in the dialect of your choice (British English, Australian English, Standard American English). My standard rate is $0.03 per word for copy editing and $0.015 per word for proofreading. I can be flexible in my rate, especially for longer texts such as manuscripts.Copyediting

Hi there! I'm an SEO Copywriter and Communications Specialist from New York and I’m passionate about converting ideas into engaging copy that generates revenue and converts interest into clients. For the past 8+ years I’ve been living in Europe. Every day I meet brilliant thinkers and companies who are committed to expanding their global outreach. But they all have the same challenge – how to produce copy in business English that resonates with an international audience? And once they’ve started, how to keep global readers coming back for more content? It all comes down to finding a native English copywriter who listens better than he writes. My expertise is the ability to understand your message and distill your thoughts into a readable and engaging story in native English. When you need a native English copywriter who can tell your story with brevity and zero tolerance for sloppy, error-laden text, I’m your go-to. Clients consistently tell me they are impressed at the precision and speed of which I’m able to transform their ideas into words. They like that I’m readily available, skilled at communicating, and, frankly, that I just get it. ------------------------------------ I specialize in B2B communications, email campaigns, press releases, web copy, blogs, sales letters, research reports, and newsletters for clients in Europe who want to enhance their business identity with content in pristine English.Copyediting

Hi! I create all kinds of digital content, including e-books, lead magnets and social media graphics & short videos, for a wide range of clients primarily in the holistic health and wellness industries, as well as for nonprofits, e-commerce brands and B2B companies. My complete list of services includes: - Content creation & strategy - E-book design - Social media design (Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn) - Static posts, animated posts, video posts, carousels, infographics - Social media design & strategy - Lead magnets & funnel design - Branding - Copywriting - Video - Instagram Reels - Anything that can be designed in Canva I got my start in graphic design through Pinterest marketing, creating hundreds of pins for a variety of brands using Canva, Pixlr, and Photoshop, and eventually branched out into other types of design projects and marketing strategies. I create e-books and flipbooks with Canva and the Designrr Pro platform, and I particularly enjoy making short social media animations/videos in Canva. I'd also be happy to assess your project and make recommendations, especially regarding your social media and content marketing strategies. Please check out my Portfolio for examples of my work. Feel free to reach out for more samples of specific types of projects, as my Portfolio is not comprehensive. From January 2023-August 2024 I worked 2 part-time roles, one managing the content strategy at a marketing agency and the other as a Twitter/X consultant for a health non-profit. Both roles were obtained outside of Upwork, so they're not shown in my reviews but I'm happy to provide references. Fun Facts: 1. I'm a US citizen, born in Japan, with a Japanese name. 2. I'm a native/fluent English speaker. I also speak informal Japanese. 3. I travel a lot and am frequently overseas, which is why I might correspond at odd hours. 4. In my free time I love to study history, art, holistic health, science and Decentralized Finance / web3 / crypto; explore nature; learn traditional cooking techniques; and watch sci-fi, fantasy and historical fiction. If your project has to do with any of these themes especially, please do let me know :) Thank you! - KirikoCopyediting

FREE ESSAY REVIEW OFFER: I will review the final version of ONE of your application essays, offer you high-level feedback, and let you know whether I believe I can substantially improve upon your writing. I am happy to work on an HOURLY basis, billing in 15-minute increments. OR I also offer FLAT RATE PRICING based on your essay's maximum word count: 1-500 words - $200 501-1000 words - $250 1001-1500 words - $300 1501-2000 words - $350 2001-2500 words - $400 2501-3000 words - $450 3001-4000 words - $500 4001-5000 words - $550 (I also offer a sliding scale for those who want my help but truly cannot afford it. Contact me for more information.) TURNAROUND time is 72 hours from payment. If you need it within 48 hours add $100. Within 24 hours add $200. ONE (OPTIONAL) REVISION based on your feedback/request is included in the base rate. Additional revisions are variable cost depending on the complexity of the changes requested. SATISFACTION GUARANTEE: If you honestly feel you cannot leave a 5-star review for me once I have finished editing your essay(s), I will refund you 100% of my fee. (Note: This has never happened!) ABOUT ME: After working in the newsroom of The New York Times for a decade, I got my MBA from the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth. Since then I have served for over 12 years as both consultant and editor at one of the top MBA admissions consulting firms in the US. I offer essay editing services here on Upwork and I imbue my edits with strategic thinking gleaned from having helped hundreds of clients gain admission to top-15 schools including Stanford, Harvard, Wharton, Columbia, Kellogg, Booth, Ross, MIT, Dartmouth, Yale, NYU Stern, Fuqua, Haas, Darden, Johnson, Marshall, Anderson, Goizueta, Tepper, and McCombs. To find my consulting client reviews online google the following: Poets & Quants Seth Gilmore HOW I WORK: I prefer to edit all of the essays in a given school's application at once, so that I can help ensure that the entire package "hangs together" coherently. Please send me your finished essay(s) in Word and include the following information for each essay: a) the exact prompt, b) the maximum word count. For each set please be sure to include your name and the school to which you are applying. I will edit in track changes mode so that you can see what I did. While always careful to maintain your unique voice, I tend to be a HEAVY editor in order to make it read just right; if you prefer a lighter edit, please let me know. If you scored less than a 3 on your GMAT/GRE AWA please let me know that. WHAT I DO NOT DO: I will not write your essays for you. It is incredibly important that you write your own essays. I add value by improving upon what you have written, so you should send me the very best and final version of your essay(s) only, and I will take them to the next level. (Note: It is much easier for me to edit down than to build up, so I prefer your final essays to be 25%-50% over the max word limit when you submit them to me.)Copyediting

Hello! I am a professional classical musician, but because I have short hours and a passion for reading, writing, and editing, I am also pursuing work as a freelance copyeditor and proofreader. I have previous experience writing program notes for concerts, grading and providing commentary on students' papers, and writing tutoring. I have also informally worked as a volunteer editor for years. I am currently pursuing a Copyediting Certificate from the University of California, San Diego to perfect my skills, but I believe I can already not only successfully proofread any piece of writing, but provide helpful feedback that will elevate its organization, flow, and general appeal. Because of my background in music and the arts, I feel I would be especially helpful in those areas, but I have a broad array of interests and am open to any kind of work. I am dedicated, thoughtful, and thorough, always meet deadlines, and have a very flexible schedule so can turn work around very quickly. I look forward to working with you!Copyediting

You are looking for ways to pinpoint customers base, convert at a high rate and get the massive returns you've worked for. It's rare to find copywriters to deliver just that. In fact, nearly 95% of them can't. One of the hardest things to do in building your own business is the process of selling to your customers. The reputation and trust you worked so hard to gain from your customers can be ruined the minute you start to sound like "sales-y" (or even worse, scammy). I totally get you. If you are looking for someone who simply sells with great copywriting that sounds authentic and sincere, here are testimonials from my clients: "Worked with Johnny to increase my landing page's conversion rate. It did by 28%. Highly recommended." -Elissa DiDonna "Great work from all perspectives. Very communicative and genuinely want my business to succeed." -Lorne Dolan "Johnny is a clearly talented writer with an ability to tell captivating stories to make sales." -Julie Palmer Hi, I'm Johnny, a copywriter with over 25 satisfied clients. I write successful sales campaigns. Here's what I do: *Market Research *Understand customers' pains and relate to them *Write high-converting Call to Actions *Speak in customers' language *Tell stories to create conversion *And most importantly, make sales My philosophy: 1) Engaging storytelling Bad copywriters love to write boring sales letters, sound desperate and literally begging for customers' money. That doesn't sell. What sells is a story that is memorable and told with a unique personal voice. 2) Highlight benefits You can expect me to sell benefits in my copywriting, not details. Whether it is a lifestyle, convenience, or etc. 3) Speak in customers' language All good copy have uncanny abilities to make your customers nod their heads and think, "Yes, yes, yes. This guy gets me. Where can I buy (the solution)?" To do that, it is 99% hard work of researching. I specialize in psychology and human behavior. With my experience, I can write a copy that truly relates to your customers. More testimonials: "Without increasing any traffic, I was able to get 3 times more the leads after working with Johnny. Fantastic guy to work with." -Anthony Keller "Very professional and creative copywriter. Would work with him again." -Jennifer Sanchez If you are serious about making sales and tired of subpar copywriters, hit me up. Clients always tell me with amazement by how authentic my copywriting is. Find out why. Best, Richard JohnnyCopyediting
