You might know Naomi’s heart from her hilarious comedy skits, mouthwatering food videos, or fashion content that she turns to mind – but if you spend any time on social media, you’ve certainly heard of her. With 1.1 million Tiktok followers, 116K followers on Instagram and nearly 5,000 subscribers on YouTube, Hearts herself has carved a vibrant internet corner and her audience is obsessed with it.

Handheld fans
Let’s face it: Vidcon will get hot in all senses. Like many creators on the scene, Heart swears to her trusted handheld fans. “That’s what you need,” she said. “The secret weapon to keep cool and get your camera ready for a long time, over the long days of shooting on a long panel, meeting and lens and on the journey.
Videoleap application
When it comes to editing, the heart is not messy. “I use an app called Videoleap,” she shared. “I personally like it more than any other app.”

She mainly uses it to cut Instagram reels and short content, but it is also powerful enough for long format editing. For the heart, it’s all about speed, simplicity, and keeping her edits clear and scrolling.
iPhone settings only
No DSLR. No laptop. no problem.
Hearts shoots and edits everything on iPhone 13. She said she “never” uses traditional cameras. She prefers the quality of the rear camera, especially for introductions and polished clips, but usually switches to the front camera for spontaneous, face-to-face chat with her followers. This is a full mobile production studio in her palm.
