A direct working relationship
From the first sketch
to the final little detail.
I’m an independent designer and developer with more than 15 years’ experience. I bring design thinking and technical delivery together, so the idea and the finished website stay connected.
You speak to me, work with me and know who is looking after the project. I work directly with businesses and alongside agencies, with the same attention to the brief and the people behind it.

Bespoke web design
I’m James, a freelance designer and developer offering bespoke web design for businesses that want a website shaped around their work, their customers and the enquiries they want to attract.
Web app development
I design and build custom web applications for businesses that need more than a website. That can mean a customer portal, a team dashboard, a membership product or a tool that brings a complicated workflow into one place.
Native app development
I build native iPhone apps in Swift and SwiftUI, bringing the interface and the functionality together. From an early product idea to a defined development brief, you work directly with the person making it.
Next.js development
I’m a freelance Next.js developer based in Market Harborough, working with businesses and agencies across the UK. I build websites and web applications with React and TypeScript, bringing the interface, content and functionality together.
WordPress development
I provide freelance WordPress development for businesses and agencies, building custom themes and editable websites from an agreed brief or supplied designs. You deal directly with the person writing the code.
WooCommerce development
I offer WooCommerce development for businesses whose products need a more considered shopping experience. I build custom store templates and buying journeys around your catalogue, options and day-to-day workflow.
White-label development
I provide white-label web development for design, creative and digital agencies that need an experienced developer on a client project. You keep the agency relationship, and work directly with me on the technical delivery.
Cannot recommend James more highly. First and foremost he is an excellent developer — works quickly and intelligently. Delivers when he says he will, usually above and beyond what is asked for.

For designers & agencies
Your team.
One more pair of hands.
I work with agencies on white-label development, turning supplied designs into websites and helping with the technical parts of a project. You get a direct relationship with the person building it.
There’s much more to my portfolio than I can show here. A lot of my work is delivered under an agency’s name. Get in touch and I can share relevant examples privately, where permissions allow.
Local roots.A wider outlook.

Let’s talk about your projectBefore we begin
A few useful
answers.
Do you work with businesses in Market Harborough and nearby?
Yes. I’m based in Market Harborough and work with businesses in Corby, Kettering, Leicester and the surrounding area. I also work with clients across the UK. We can agree calls and meetings around what the project needs.
Can you design and build the whole website?
Yes. I can take a project from its structure and visual design through to development and launch. I also work with designers and agencies who need a development partner to implement their designs.
What should I send you to get started?
A little about the business, what you want to build or improve, and what a useful result would look like. An approximate budget and timescale help too. I’ll read it personally and come back with the next questions.
