    I've been working as a freelance graphic designer and illustrator for five years. From a background of agency work with big brands (please see my folio below), I have recently moved toward helping smaller businesses with limited or low budgets.

    Marketing is often forgotten in the build up to launching a business, but I am here to help you through that particular minefield. I'd like you feel comfortable in discussing your ideas without being bamboozled by account managers and sales teams.

    Please, get in touch and let me hear your thoughts.

    Thanks Steve

      Seriously could not have asked for a better person to do the job. The level of effort and commitment which were put in were far higher than anticipated. I will certainly be using Stephen again and would assure any other PPH user that you will not find anyone more competent and willing.

      Steve was absolutely brilliant on this project. He understood my brief so perfectly that the very first draft he produced was absolutely spot on and we only needed to make minor revisions thereafter. Steve is a very skilled creative designer who knows what he is doing. I was very impressed with the quality of his work and his professionalism and will definitely use him again.
