Logo Design, Branding & Business Launches

​I'm passionate about branding and love bringing together a whole identity. Your audience aren't just looking for a service, they are open to building an interactive relationship with your brand and want to hear your story. Taking the time to shape how your company looks and communicates helps introduce you to the right demographic, and forge a lasting connection with the people who really matter to you.
 
A Logo is a company’s unique visual identifier, it must be memorable, versatile, scalable and timeless. My process, evolved over the last decade, ensures I create a totally unique brand which creates a powerful visual impact. Your perfect striking icon, custom lettering & complimentary colour and assets, which complete your visual identity.
 
​My first step toward creating a truly iconic design is to listen and make sure that what I create is a perfect fit. From the time I undertake the project I use all my skill, experience and intuition to deliver a beautiful, unique and versatile brand package. It will be simple to use, relevant to your clientele, and distinctive from your competitors. From Tech Start-Ups to Beauty Brands & Public Spaces. The important thing is building the unique DNA of your brand.

Modern Responsive Websites

​The most important aspect of your website is the human one. Presenting the important information without clutter is vital. Beautiful websites are clean, concise and easy to use. They have a clear focus, calls to action and present information in way that's easy to consume. I will design your site to lead visitors to the information they need.

Keeping the design simple, and delivering a strong message in an elegant, versatile package is the aim. I can keep it appearing simple, even if there is a lot of information to present. The key is a strong focus on hierarchy. Presenting a little information at a time and giving that information room to breathe is the path to great communication. 

The approach I take is centered around your clients needs, and focused on rich content and your brand story. I often take the reigns with content creation too, so you can relax and let me do the hard work. All of our websites are responsive, so they work beautifully on mobile devices, tablets and laptops. And you can even edit them yourself and add store capabilities at the touch of a button! So what are you waiting for? Let's get busy!

A Thousand Words

​As our lives get busier the way we consume information is changing. Powerful photography and creative concepts have never been more important, and I can make sure you get the most out of your investment with innovative ideas and a fresh approach. I can deliver beautiful imagery and even support your brand with event photography.
 
​I’ve been trusted by Start-Up’s, Big Brands and Entrepreneurs and even worked with award-winning agencies to deliver first-rate visual experiences. I am an idea generator. I take care in listening and planning to capture a concept, envoke the right feelings and even tell a story with the camera. Shooting with a designers eye I can envision where the strapline will work in the white space, I’m planning how it will look with the Instagram crop, what area will be masked in Facebook and Twitter feeds and how it's going to work within the composition in print.
 
​Product Photography requires particularly careful planning and great care to get consistent angles, lighting and composition. When it's done well the images become interactive, simply layer up to present as much or as little of the range as you need. I also have over a decade of experience in retouching and that really helps to align imagery with the brand. ​Editing should be done with care and a delicate hand, keeping the images natural and professional. ​So whatever your style, lets make sure you shine! 

The Power of Print

​Few things make an impact like combining intelligent design with lustrous print. There is still no better marketing tool. Simply putting a beautiful brochure into your client's hand creates such potential, it's an opportunity you really can't afford to waste. So let's make it memorable! Business cards are the old faithfuls, but that doesn't mean they have to be average. They're such great tools for creating connections and forming a lasting impression.

We have plenty experience handling large volumes of informtion. We can present your copy beautifully wether it is a small flyer, a perfect bound brochure or a weighty hardback. When you present a lot of information it can be difficult to know what to prioritise. We can help your customers focus on the most important things first, and balance information with striking imagery for an effective and engaging experience. We have so many ways to make you stand out from the crowd. We create an impact using bold colour, striking design and beautiful typography.

​Give your business the most professional assets and user-friendly information to help your customers engage with your content.  We can create your custom Packaging, uniform and merchandise to really wow the crowd. And we know that being smart with your budget is vital for start-ups, we can advise on that to help you get the best option.

Illustration

​Beautifully crafted illustration is perfect for totally bespoke statement. Add a high-end artistic vibe, stylish modern graphic or even inject a little fun into your advertising message. We illustrate in a wide variety of styles, from low poly to dainty watercolours, bold graphics or character design. Creating fresh, unique artwork for a project really takes it to the next level. A hand made print adds a lovely human touch. It's a great way to say "We care."

​We are skilled artists competent in a variety of mediums and absolutely love a challenge. We've done lots of character design, illustrations, posters, wall murals, bespoke paintings, tattoo designs, clothing, fabric design, packaging and lettering. We can also create beautiful illustrated cards and invitations.

Not sure what your project actually needs? We have plenty of experience combining design and illustration for an effective message and can help you figure out exactly what will work best. We'd love to help!
