Hello, friends at Still Life

I have a breadth of experience creating content and content strategy that connects with audiences and helps grow dedicated, meaningful communities.

I’ve set out examples of imagery below, as well as some content ideas specifically for Still Life.

Please feel free to browse this site, especially the work section, for case studies with my clients.

Photography + graphic Design

content ideas for still life

Showing the store + products

  • New in our shop this week/month

  • “The perfect gallery wall does not exi….”: images of gallery walls featuring prints from the store.

  • How xxx is made: collaboration with the supplier

  • Favourite corners of our store

  • Spotted: showing a product in a customer’s home

User generated content

Invitations for your customers to participate in content creation.

  • Regular prompt, e.g. “#LetsStayStill” asking people how they relax on a Sunday. You can then create a carousel of tagged posts / story reposts. E.g. Lucy & Yak do this really well and they do it weekly.

  • Creating a shareable segment of the store, e.g. a mirror with a print next to it that would encourage people to take a mirror selfie and share, tagging Still Life

Demonstrating the lifestyle

These posts show Still Life products in use - the post is about something that the community cares about, but using Still Life products

  • End of day unwind routine (using skincare, scents, candles, lights etc. from the store)

  • Summer picnic essentials

  • A day in the life of [insert kid’s / toddler’s name]: showing how they go about their day, with Still Life products/toys placed in parts

  • Style a wedding party / baby shower / birthday party with us

  • Still Life X Local Business: Styled shoot in a local restaurant / cafe / shop using Still Life products

  • How I style this: by interior designers / friends /influencers showing how to style your products in their home.

Connecting with the community

Not necessarily showcasing Still Life products / the shop, but speaking to what the Still Life community cares about

  • A day in Stockport with me (showing the Underbanks, shops, coffee, foodie spots etc.)

  • Events coming up this month (locally, or in the arts)

  • Book / film recommendations for a calm mind / for holidays etc.

  • Flower arranging for beginners

  • 3 ways to use flowers in your home

  • Local takeover: a friend business / local influencer takes over the content / makes a collab reel. Could be of a day around Manchester incl. a visit to the store, or just using some of the products.

  • What plant are you? An indoor plant “horoscope” depending on personality
