How I build content that converts

Making something look good is easy. Making it convert is way harder. Every piece I create follows a framework rooted in human psychology and storytelling, so your brand gets sales, not only views.

  1. 1Hook

    Stops the scroll in less than 3 seconds, with four hooks:VisualTextAudio + musicCaption

  2. 2Problem

    Make the viewer feel seen with a real, everyday pain point your product solves, without overcomplicating it.

  3. 3Solution

    Your product in action, solving the problem in a way that feels natural and easy.This is where belief builds and your brand becomes the hero.

  4. 4Benefits

    The why and how:Unique featuresEmotional payoffLifestyle shiftFun, modern and relatable.

  5. 5CTA

    Close strong.A confident but natural call to action, so viewers know exactly what to do next without feeling sold to.

About me

I live adventure 100%.

I've always been drawn to creating content, whether it was exploring art through drawing and painting as a kid or sharing my creative journey online.That love for visual storytelling naturally led me to photography, videography, and UGC strategy, turning this passion into a career to make high converting UGC content based on human psychology.

With a background as an aerospace engineer and 4+ years of content creation across different channels, I bring a unique mix: a sharp artistic eye for aesthetics and framing, paired with a deep technical mastery of gear, motion, and performance.My analytical mindset helps me think beyond trends, blending creativity with conversion.

Through StudiobyAdam, I partner with travel agencies, eco-tourism providers, hotels, and outdoor gear or action camera brands to create compelling, authentic content that actually performs.

Where I can showcase your product

I live in Marseille, right next to the Calanques: limestone cliffs over turquoise water, sea caves and coastal trails. The ideal setting for swimwear, snorkeling and diving gear, hiking equipment or action cameras.

The Alps are a few hours away, for hikes, bivouacs and mountain shots. And the Mediterranean beaches are right on my doorstep.

I also travel a lot, and I always pick the place that suits your product best: hidden spots, waterfalls, corners of the desert.

Before we talk

Can you travel for a shoot?+

Yes. I am based in Marseille and I shoot on location: trips, excursions, surf camps, multi-day tours. We plan travel together on the call.

Who owns the videos, and where can we run them?+

We agree on usage before the shoot: organic only, paid ads, or both, and for how long. It is written down, so there are no surprises.

Do I get the raw footage?+

Raw footage can be included. Tell me on the call and I will add it to your quote.

How many revisions?+

One free revision per video. The brief and script are agreed before I film, so the edit lands close the first time.

Organic or paid?+

Both. I have made organic posts and paid ad creatives. Each one is built on the same structure: hook, problem, solution, benefits, CTA.
