Let’s talk about money
I’d rather be upfront than have you guessing. Every project is a little different, so think of these as honest starting points, not fixed price tags. They give you a real feel for what things cost, and if you want a figure for your project specifically, the ballpark tool will get you there in about a minute.
What you’re paying for isn’t just a logo, a website or a set of photos. It’s work that makes the right people take you seriously, that you don’t have to apologise for, and that you won’t be quietly redoing in eighteen months. That’s the bit that actually pays for itself.
What it costs
01
Branding
From £1,250
Identity work that makes the right people take you seriously. From the essentials done properly, through a full identity with the templates you use day to day, to a complete visual system with art direction when your brand needs to carry real weight.
02
Websites
From £1,750
A site that does the quiet selling for you. From a focused few pages that look credible and get found, through a larger site with room to tell the full story, to a proper online shop built so it’s easy for you to run.
03
Photography
From £300
Images that look like you on a good day, not a stock library. From a two hour shoot for a specific need, to a half or full day building a library you can draw on across everything, all year.
Care and protection
Once your site is live, it needs looking after. Not because something’s wrong, but because that’s how you stop things going wrong.
Every website sits on layers of software: WordPress, the theme, the plugins, the database, the security certificate. The people who make them push out updates constantly, mostly to close security holes that get actively targeted. A site left alone is a bit like a building where the locks slowly seize up. Most weeks nothing happens. Then one week something does, and by then it’s a clean-up job rather than a quick fix.
A care plan handles all of that quietly in the background. Updates tested and applied, security watched daily, backups taken and checked, speed kept sharp, broken links caught before your visitors find them. You won’t see most of it, because the whole point is that nothing bad reaches you. The work is the prevention.
Plans start from £245 a year, so your site stays secure, fast and current without you ever having to think about it.
How working together goes
No big mystery, and no being left in the dark. We start with a proper conversation about what you actually need, not what gets you to spend the most. If something’s overkill, I’ll say so. If there’s a simpler way to get you where you’re going, I’ll point you to it.
From there you get a clear quote with nothing buried in it, an honest idea of timings, and one person looking after the whole thing: me. You’ll always know what’s happening and what’s coming next.
Not sure where you land?
Tell me what you’re after and we’ll talk it through, no hard sell. The ballpark tool in the corner is the easy first step, or just drop me a message.
