My Ethic

Honest Work, Fair Prices, And Someone Who Picks Up The Phone

I’d spent years in some of the country’s best creative studios and in TV production, and I was tired of working for people who only cared about the money. I wanted to do something for the businesses around me — the cafe, the electrician, the joinery firm — and to work with people I actually liked.

That’s still the business, and it’s why it runs the way it does: you talk to me, I do the work, and the prices stay low because a good website or a well-run campaign shouldn’t be something only big companies can afford. New-age marketing, old-school ethic — modern tools, and the manners my dad’s generation did business with.

What’s changed is the toolkit. Alongside the design and production experience, I now use AI to read the data — search terms, analytics, competitors — so every decision has a number behind it and the work performs as well as it looks. When a job needs more than me, it gets it: a photographer and drone pilot I’ve worked with for years, an IT firm for the technical plumbing, studio contacts for the big productions. You still only ever deal with me.

Values

Three things that don’t change

Three things that don’t change

Community first

Local businesses first, any size welcome. Fair prices, and work that helps the people around me do well.

Honest by default

One honest quote, a realistic schedule, and the truth about what will and won’t work — even when it costs me the job.

Design that performs

Trained design and TV production, backed by data, so the work looks right and does its job.
