A few words…

I am a freelancer and I enjoy to be one (as seen in Fig. 1-a). I work in the fields of photography, graphic design, web design and stock images.

Whilst my main occupation is in the production of images for the stock market (non-commissioned work), from time to time I accept commissioned work. When I do, I act like a member of your organisation, trying hard to find the best way to visually represent ‘our’ values. I work very carefully, give attention to each and every detail and never miss an agreed deadline.

However, I do choose clients. For example, I do not work with clients who want to renew their logo in three days, or who ask for a web site which would represent elegance, friendliness, innovation, humour … you get the point.

This approach is in turn beneficial to you; you would know, when I start working with you, I would not fill my schedule and wear-out my stamina with time-consuming, unrewarding, highly annoying work but rather dedicate the most efficient times of a day to your project.

You can always call me from my mobile between 10:00 – 22:00 or e-mail me 24/7 to discuss the details of your upcoming projects. Until then, I wish you all the best.

Graphic Design

Graphic design, at least the way I understand, can be divided into three sections:

1. Page layout design (Brochures, business cards, etc.)
2. Shape-based vector design (Logos, icons, etc.)
3. Free-hand illustration (Cartoon characters, sceneries, etc.)

Web Design

We all use the term ‘web-design’ in its broadest meaning. However, when one talks about web design it includes web development (coding and all the other boring stuff), web design (the graphical elements and how to place them) and content management (the language you use in your web presence).

While all of the above components are equally important, I cannot say that they are given equal attention. Many designers rely on ready scripts and other codes where most developers tend to use design templates. In any case, the content is expected from the client and put in the website without any editing, improvement or revision.

The way I work in a web-design project is as follows:

1. Discussing with the client to understand the needs, expectations, target audience, style and so on.
2. Gathering all the resources, production of extra resources i.e. taking photos of the products, creating custom made icons, 3D shots or panoramic tours etc., if necessary.
3. Preparing a black and white page layout in PDF format.
4. Editing and if necessary producing the content.
5. Following necessary changes, preparation of fully functional web page.
6. Piloting the web page with a focus group.
7. Kick-starting the web site.
8. Search Engine Optimization
