Branding that works in the real world, made in Shrewsbury
Branding isn’t just a logo. It’s the story, the system and the standards that make you recognisable at a glance. I’ll help you define what you stand for and how you show up, then shape it into a brand identity you and your team can use every day.
The result is clarity for you, consistency for your customers, and a brand that holds up everywhere — on your website, in print, on social and out in the real world.

Branding FAQs
Here are some of the most common branding questions we get. If you can’t find what you need, feel free to get in touch.
How long does a branding project take?
Smaller identities can wrap in 2–3 weeks. A fuller brand identity is usually 4–8 weeks. We’ll agree a simple timeline at the start and I’ll keep you in the loop.
Can we start with just a logo?
If budget or timing is tight, we can start with the logo and a light visual identity – colour, type and a few basic templates – because a logo is only one small part. You can develop the rest when you’re ready.
Do you do rebrands and refreshes?
Yes. If we don’t need to start again, we’ll keep what’s working and update the rest. A quick audit at the start helps us decide the smart route.
Are payment plans available for branding projects?
Yes, I offer payment plans. Usually it’s a deposit to book and the balance on delivery, and for longer projects we can split payments into stages.
Do you only work with businesses in Shrewsbury?
I’m based in Shrewsbury, but I work with clients across Shropshire, the UK and further afield. Depending on your location we can meet in-person or work together online.
Can you design my website too?
Yes. Brand-led web design is part of the studio, so we can plan the site alongside the identity and make the handover smooth. Learn more about our web design services.
