…or a few, for that matter. When is enough, enough? When do you know that the job or project you’re working is not in line with your personal/business values? I’m a part of a few WhatsApp business groups and in some of them, we engage in really productive discussions. One of the questions posed recently…
A few weeks ago, my friend Chris and I went down to the Birmingham Christmas Market to do a shoot, featuring the lights and general environment. Chris then used his magic and wizardry to take stills of me and compiled them into video form – a crafty genius, with a lot of patience. This was…
If you’ve been through Birmingham town centre over the past few weeks, then it would have been quite hard for you to have missed the Christmas Market.

As a lover of many forms of art, studying games design and other creative subjects, I sometimes neglect the very things that increase my creativity when the workload increases.…
Over the years I’ve been freelancing, I connect with many types of potential clients and I’m frequently asked things like “What is your rate/How much do you charge?” without any acknowledgement of their budget for this requested project.
