Videographer, digital content creator and creative designer Emma Beavis has joined Distinctive to lead the agency’s new visual content service.

“The power of visual content to connect people and bring stories to life is what fuels me, so I can’t wait to get stuck into capturing our client’s stories and projects with authenticity, creativity and impact.”
