It’s been a while since the last update, but for good reason…

The last few months have been busy, and the journal took a back seat while I focused on the work. But there’s a milestone worth marking.

As of 1st July 2026, Studio Payne operates as a limited company — David Payne Ltd.

Honestly, I didn’t expect to be making this move this soon. Setting up a company felt like something further down the road, but a run of strong projects, a new ongoing contract, and some exciting work on the horizon made it feel like the right time.

None of this happens without the people around you. To the clients who’ve trusted me with their businesses, and to family and friends who’ve supported me along the way.

Thank you. Genuinely.

Day to day, nothing changes. Same work, same approach, same person behind it all. But from today, all invoices will come from David Payne Ltd.

More on what’s been keeping me busy and what’s coming next soon.
