I work comfortably in fast-paced environments and deliver high-quality photo and video content on tight deadlines. I can handle the full workflow including video production, photography, video editing, and post-production for social media, digital marketing, and brand use. With a background in event and project management, I plan shoots properly, communicate clearly, and make sure content fits the wider campaign goals. Clients hire me for event videography, event photography, short-form video content, social media videos, reels, and clean, professional edits.

Social Media Strategist & Manager | Beauty, Wellness & Female-Led Brands Most brands don't have a content problem. They have a strategy problem. Posting consistently is not the same as posting with purpose. I build social media strategies from the ground up for beauty, wellness, and female-led businesses. Every content pillar, every caption, every post has a specific job to do. That's what separates a feed that looks nice from one that actually grows a business. I bring a four-year background in psychology to my work, which directly shapes how I write for clients in women's wellness, mental health, and coaching. Word choice and tone aren't aesthetic decisions for these audiences, they're trust decisions, and I take both seriously. Before a single post goes live, I spend two weeks in discovery and strategy, learning your business, your audience, your voice, and your goals. What comes after that is intentional, tailored, and built to convert. Here's what that looks like in practice: - A US-based skincare startup came to me at launch with no audience and no content history. I built their pre-launch teaser strategy, launch content, and now manage their ongoing presence across Instagram, TikTok, Pinterest, Facebook, and YouTube Shorts. From zero followers in February to a growing organic community by May. - A dormant local account at 4 monthly views grew to 5,800 in month one, all organic, no ads. Two feed posts per week. - A fine artist's account went from 6 interactions per month to 1,200 within three months. Monthly views climbed from 2,000 to over 30,000 in the same period. - A US-based ADHD and women's wellness coach generated over 7,000 organic views in our first month working together, with educational carousels earning meaningful shares from her audience. These results come from strategy, not luck. What I offer: - Full social media strategy and management, cross-platform content planning across Instagram, TikTok, Pinterest, Facebook, and YouTube Shorts, brand voice development, launch strategies, monthly content calendars, community management, and performance reporting. I work with brands and founders who care about how they show up online. If you've built something you're proud of and want a strategic partner to help it find its audience, I'd love to talk. Based in Cape Town, working remotely with clients in the US, UK, and beyond. Communication and turnaround stay tight regardless of time zone.

Most customer support roles ask you to follow the process. I help build it too. At GEM Solutions I handled client-facing communication and QA across 10-15 live projects simultaneously - fielding client questions, coordinating between teams, making sure issues were logged, followed up, and actually resolved. I am comfortable with volume, minimal supervision, ambiguity, and customers who require someone with patience. I stay methodical under pressure, keep records clean, and take real ownership of the puzzles I am responsible for solving. I have also written SOPs, set up CRM pipelines in Zoho One and HubSpot, and coordinated across remote teams - so I can support operations beyond just answering tickets. Where I shine: 🔹I’m comfortable working independently and taking initiative 🔹I treat your business with care, discretion, and ownership 🔹I communicate clearly and consistently 🔹Inbox and email management (organise, respond, escalate) 🔹Task tracking, follow-ups, and deadline management 🔹CRM setup and administration (quotes, contracts, forms, pipelines) 🔹Community and platform support (announcements, inboxes, updates) 🔹File organisation, documentation, and SOPs 🔹Video call support and behind-the-scenes execution As a teacher, I developed strong communication skills, patience, and the ability to manage multiple priorities at once. As a business owner, I built and ran systems, supported clients directly, handled escalations, and ensured nothing slipped through the cracks. That combination makes me especially effective in roles that require trust, organisation, and follow-through. If you need someone who shows up consistently, communicates clearly, and can improve the process alongside doing the work - I am a good fit.

Project Management When something breaks in a client relationship, most people go quiet or pass it up the chain. I am the person who addresses it directly, figures out what went wrong, and makes sure the client hears from someone who actually knows what is happening. At GEM Solutions I was the primary point of contact across 15 concurrent client accounts simultaneously. That meant handling queries, onboarding new clients, managing escalations, coordinating with designers and developers behind the scenes, and making sure nothing was left open or unresolved. I also built the intake forms, onboarding documentation, and SOPs that made the whole process more consistent for everyone involved. Before that I ran a media studio for six years with no team, meaning every client relationship was entirely my responsibility from the first conversation to the final deliver I had to deliver branded content, design, copywriting, and digital work for business clients, combined with hands-on experience coordinating web campaigns, managing CMS content at scale, and keeping multiple projects moving simultaneously at a digital agency. I work across Figma, Canva, Adobe XD, WordPress, Webflow, HTML, CSS, and Google Analytics. I hold certifications in Google Digital Marketing, SEO, and HubSpot Digital Marketing. I understand how to build content that looks good, write copy that converts, and track whether any of it is actually working.

I provide an end-to-end web design service that delivers agency-level service at every stage of a project. From concept to design, development, and launch, I follow a tried and tested process that ensures that every custom build renders and performs exactly as the client envisioned.

With 10+ years of professional experience, I specialise in portrait and event photography that captures people naturally and authentically. I take the time to understand every client’s brief, keeping the process simple, efficient, and focused from start to finish. Beyond photography, I bring advanced retouching, compositing, and digital illustration skills, allowing me to deliver polished, high-quality images and creative visual solutions. Whether you need corporate headshots, event coverage, or expertly crafted post-production, I focus on producing work that meets your brief and exceeds expectations. What my clients say: "Amazing! In a 15 minute shoot Dimitri captured the exact qualities I wanted more successfully than any other professional, and I’m not the only one saying this!” - Edwin Edelstein, Kung Fu School, London "I love the artist's portrait Dimitri took of me. It says “Bold Artist, strong and soft at the same time”. I use it as my official portrait for film festivals, my website and social media, I just love it." - Robyn denny, Artist, Cape Town "I am the least photogenic person ever and hate most photos of myself, which is why I had some professional shots done for work purposes. Dimitri did an excellent job and produced a number of photos I am actually proud to put up on social media, websites and other work related publications. Really happy with Dimitri’s work and the only photographer I would use." - Don Serratt, CEO, Glenholme Healthcare Group, London "Dimitri made me feel comfortable when being being photographed and helped me be a better model. The profile pictures are perfect for my professional profiles and presentations." - Ines Rosef-Ingram, CEO & Founder at Pine3 Marketing
