If you're not sure if what you're looking for is in my area of creative expertise then have a browse of my "creative menu" below for some of the current ways you can work with me!

Digital content creation
My digital content creation journey started back in 2010, when I created my first personal blog. Since then I have successfully built a brand around my own content creation journey, having launched and scaled two different blogs and with experience in everything from product photography and video creation to podcasting and online course creation.
Today my personal brand all operates under 'Laura Jane Illustrations' and I create a range of content including long and short form video, informational blog posts, downloadable resources and also run a weekly podcast.

Collaboration Projects
Where my illustrations meet your brand and we take the feel-GOODness to a whole new level!
Collaboration projects are my favourite kind of creative projects to work on because there are so many options to what this can look like - the possibilities are endless! Collaboration projects are not just about illustration and product design, but a package project that will be beneficial to both our audiences and can include, but are not limited to, exclusive illustrations/product designs, video & photos documenting the creative journey, giveaways and collaborative social media content.
Previous clients include: CASETiFY, Miss T Teachables, The Teaching Tools, Top Teacher
Events, Podcasts & more...
As I already mentioned, I wear many creative hats and with my background in teaching, I'm also experienced and confident with public speaking, leading workshops and presentations & having a feel GOOD chat about anything from creativity to self-care and mindfulness!
So if all of the above creative goodness wasn't enough, you can also work with me or collaborate with me on:
online events, workshops, presentations and summits
podcast interviews
guest blog posts
instagram takeovers
Previous clients include: The Creative Spark Summit, Hello!Lucky, Hello!Lucky Kids, The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, The Business Proposal Podcast, Let's Talk About Mental Health & more
