Yasmin Elasri

Creative, enthusiastic and highly organised professional with a background in education, customer service and the visual arts. Passionate about photography, videography and visual storytelling, particularly travel content that captures people, culture and unique experiences. My academic background in GCSE Art, AS Art and A Level Art has developed my understanding of composition, colour, lighting and creative expression, giving me a strong eye for detail and aesthetics.

Alongside my professional experience, I actively create photography and travel videography content using my Fujifilm X-T30 II camera, documenting destinations, architecture, landscapes and everyday moments through engaging visual storytelling. My Instagram portfolio, @yasveling, showcases my photography and travel videography and reflects my passion for producing creative, high-quality content. I am eager to begin my career in professional video production, bringing creativity, adaptability and a willingness to learn.
