PORTFOLIO

Just a few samples of my work to demonstrate my versatility and how I interpret each client's brief individually.

  • Note: Over time these websites may differ from the original sites (which were approved by the happy clients), because each client is shown how to easily make their own changes to their websites and – naturally! – some are happily experimenting as their businesses are growing…

Obtaining suitable photos played an important role in creating the look of this website.
