Having known Lesley for a while, and seen examples of her work, it was an easy choice when I wanted to have my website brought up to date. She understood what I wanted to achieve and brought her own ideas to the picture as well. She was always available for queries, which I find really important, and very easy to work with. No hesitation in recommending her!

Lesley was marvellous from start to finish! From the initial meeting when we looked at my ideas to looking at 3 concepts to choose one I loved! Finished article was excellent and was used as the basis for an exhibition banner, flyer and business cards, she also designed! Great personalised service, I cant recommend enough!
