Amber Mountain, guided by Emma Ellis, leverages 20 years of Media & Digital Marketing expertise, propelling brands to success.

Amber Mountain has helped businesses all over the UK skyrocket their sales through award-winning marketing strategies and results-focused data analysis. We don’t do things by the book. We challenge the status quo and market outside the box — tailoring our approach to what makes your business unique.

I help business owners, team leaders and people of influence who want to bring themselves and their organisations to life.

Whether it’s networking, presenting in person, public speaking or pitching on screen with an audience of 1 to 1,000; I can help you to communicate with authenticity, clarity and confidence.

At the heart of my work is a strong awareness of imposter syndrome. I see how often capable, intelligent people doubt their right to speak, to lead or to take up space. My mission is to remove that feeling, replacing it with the belief that their voice truly belongs in the room or on screen.

With 17 years’ experience working as a broadcaster and presenter with the BBC and commercial sector, 15 years as a communications specialist and over two decades as a voice-over artist: it’s no surprise I love storytelling.

Think of me as your greatest advocate. So tell me, what’s your story?

HH Interiors: beautifully unique, stylishly yours. We create bespoke modern interiors for the home of your dreams.

Helen is the founder and creative director of HH Interiors an award-winning interior design studio celebrated for crafting elegant, meaningful residential spaces that feel effortlessly personal. Known for blending timeless style with contemporary innovation, HH Interiors transforms homes into sophisticated yet welcoming environments.

Their expertise goes far beyond decoration offering a full-service design experience, guiding clients through every stage of the process—from space planning and structural remodelling to concept development, detailed design, sourcing, and flawless execution. By prioritising interior architectural integrity, we reimagine layouts to optimise proportion, light, and flow, ensuring interiors are both practical and visually striking.

Helen believes that “design isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about identity.” Each project begins with a conversation to understand our clients’ lifestyles, passions, and aspirations. Whether working on a Georgian townhouse or a sleek modern build, our goal remains constant: to transform houses into homes that reflect the people who live in them.

People often ask me what area of photography I specialise in and the answer is always, delivering the best images possible to suit my client’s brief. I haven’t chosen to work in one specific area of photography because I enjoy them all equally, but for different reasons.

Architecture and interiors are great as you can spend some time to really consider what you are photographing and what you want your images to portray. Food is great fun for totally different reasons; right from the outset, once the food is plated and ready to be photographed it is degrading in quality, so you need to work fast and trust that you have everything set up correctly. Product photography has different challenges, particularly on how you light it. Diamond jewellery and watches are particularly tricky to light well and prevent yourself from capturing nasty reflections and whilst product photography can sometimes be straightforward it doesn’t prevent me from coming up with creative ideas.

Running a business can feel like flying solo. At peer2peer, it never has to.
We bring business leaders together to turn lonely journeys into shared adventures – the highs, the lows and everything in between. Our Boards give you something rare: time to work on your business, surrounded by brilliant, like-minded people who genuinely want you to win.
It’s a room where everyone roots for everyone. Where kindness travels, insight is offered generously, and what’s shared stays private. Where we simplify the complex, flip the frame and play with purpose, because growing should be fun. And where we fly faster in formation, valuing every voice and leaving no member behind.

The result? More clarity, more confidence, greater capability, smarter decisions. Better choices, better businesses, better lives.

Because peer support isn’t a nice-to-have, it’s as essential as your accountant.

Our vision: a world in which every business leader loves their flight.

Our Purpose: Transforming business journeys into shared adventures.
