let’s bring your book to life!

I create cinematic, immersive book trailers that bring the magic of the story to life. I jump right into the heart of the book’s world! Each trailer is crafted with its own storyline, full of humour, twists, beautiful visuals, and an atmosphere that captures the essence of the book. Designed to enchant and captivate the target audience, my trailers convey the magic of the story. These trailers are shared across my social media platforms for maximum engagement and can be boosted by the publisher.

how i plan the trailer


I offer immersive, cinematic book trailers where I jump into the world of the story—literally! After reading the book and doing in-depth research, I carefully scout filming locations that match the book’s setting, dress as the main character, and capture the essence of the plot and atmosphere. Each trailer is designed to reflect the themes and vibe of the book and hook the reader with a witty storyline or engaging twist.

Before filming, I run my ideas by the publisher or the book’s publicist to discuss the storyline and ideas, ensuring the trailer captures the essence of the story.

filming + posting

this is how i make my trailers


  • I handle every step of the process—from screenwriting, location scouting, filming, and performing to editing, voiceover, and colour grading.

  • Before posting, I send the video and voiceover to the publisher for approval, ensuring the final product aligns with their vision.

  • I also share the social media caption and hashtags with the publisher for review, giving them the chance to check everything before it goes live.

  • On Instagram, I add captions to the video for accessibility, making the content more inclusive for all viewers (Tiktok has automatic captions).

  • The final trailer is posted on my Instagram and TikTok, reaching my highly engaged followers.

  • I provide ad rights for publishers, allowing the trailer to be boosted and reach an even wider audience.

work with me

If you're interested in creating an immersive, cinematic book trailer, let's collaborate!

Send me an email at lottie.saahko@gmail.com with the following details:

  • Book title and a brief synopsis

  • Target audience and release date

  • Any specific ideas or themes you'd like the trailer to focus on

  • Timeline

We can discuss the storyline, locations, and overall vision to ensure the trailer perfectly represents your book.

Once we've agreed on the concept, I'll handle everything from planning to execution, ensuring you're involved and updated throughout the process.

I’ve recently worked with PanMacmillan on three of their books:
Some Like It Cold by Elle McNicoll (YA romance), Greenwild by Pari Thompson (middle grade) and Rewitched by Lucy Jane Wood (adult fantasy).

Please find their trailers below!

@lottiesaahkoauthor AD | ‘Some Like It Cold’ is out today! It’s a cosy, wintery small town romance, and I loved it so much because the main character Jasper is autistic – @Elle McNicoll writes the most gorgeous neurodivergent characters! I was lucky enough to be asked to create a trailer for the book and had so much fun finding a bandstand and other small town locations that reminded me of Lake Pristine. If you’re a fan of winter and small town settings, ballet, old movies and love, you’ll love this! 💒❄️🩰 @Pan Macmillan #SomeLikeItCold #YABookRecs #YABook #YAromance #cosybooks #autisticbooks #autisticrep ♬ original sound - lottiesaahkoauthor
