I’m a freelance designer and photographer with 19 years’ experience. I have maintained long-lasting relationships with a number of clients across a broad range of environments including travel, museums, law, professional recruitment services, charities, transport and music.
Commercially and culturally savvy, I’m focussed on the role of design in helping organisations and individuals provide their customers with useful, usable and appropriate communications and experiences that purvey and enhance a professional profile. With an excellent understanding of typography, layout and print production possibilities, I’ve delivered creative and engaging solutions across brand identity, print, packaging, static digital media, multimedia, editorial, corporate design. Whether it’s customer-facing or an employee engagement I am confident managing projects through from the development of a brief to completion.
I specialise in corporate portrait photography. I also take creative photography briefs for commercial projects. Event photography includes a wine tasting event for Eurostar hosted by Raymond Blanc.
