Shooting decent photos at events can be tricky. There’s...

16 Feb 2012
Blog #8 Perceptions of a brand Well established brands have an enviable position within the market place of being instantly recognisable, people know what they are and what they do.

Blog #2 Commission to agents: A marriage made in heaven or hell?
12 Oct 2011
My relationship with agents has not been unlike a marriage. On certain days I have made an effort, taken them for lunch, listened to their problems and offered support and advice. Other times they’ve haggled over commissions and I’ve felt they brought nothing to the relationship apart from wanting my hard earned cash. Now as...
