🚀 Huge congratulations to the team at Datum Datacentres on the successful launch of their brand-new data centre, MCR2!

I was honoured to receive an invite to the launch event—unfortunately, the calendar didn’t align this time. That said, having regularly recommended Datum to clients and personally toured their Farnborough facility with them, I continue to be impressed by their meticulous approach to client needs—both current and future-facing. It’s rare to find a data centre provider that blends technical excellence with such thoughtful, client-centric design.

A big thank you to Ian Mace for his ongoing insights and support—one of the key reasons Datum remains my top recommendation for remote infrastructure and data strategy.

📩 If data resilience, environmental impact, and long-term flexibility matter to your business, let’s connect. I’d be more than happy to introduce you to Ian.

What a brilliant idea 💡 from .heath84 to move our Friday pm meeting to another venue which suited us slightly better… unbelievable setting at plus fantastic beer. Can’t argue with that for kickstarting the weekend vibes.

If you’re local to Kingsclere and not going to Glastonbury… 😉

Fantastic to support The Fieldgate Centre who play a crucial role for the local community throughout all times of the year. Wonderful that events such as this music festival can bring people of all ages together and celebrate local talent. Kingsclere and the surrounding area is a fantastic place to live and we’re grateful to the people who give up their time to make it even better. Be proud Kingsclere!

Huge thanks to all our sponsors!

Another fun visit to Kensington Olympia for Toy Fair and a pleasure to work with the talented team at Ravensburger. This year saw me capturing video content for Disney Lorcana – a TCG that has taken the world by storm. I was also responsible for the AV content on stand ensuring that brand managers and sales teams had what they required to launch new products.

I particularly enjoyed seeing old faces and catching up, plus also being inspired by meeting new contacts. My energy and passion for the product is what often connects my business with new clients but working with good people is fundamental to me.

Looking forward to next year already. Thank you to all.

A bright October morning saw us capture a ton of content for new local client Rolfe&Son window cleaning services and here is the first piece of content - a long format advertisement. Jake has grown the business from strength to strength and is expanding across the region fast. Jake started cleaning our windows over 8 years ago and delivers a service that is simply by far the best around.
It really is a pleasure to help local small businesses with creative content whilst showcasing their skills and talent. Well done Jake and all at Rolfe and Son 👏

DOP duties yesterday. Rolling with a RED Komodo 6K. As much as the luxury studio environment is first class and fun to work in, yesterday was all about the in house team and turning around an internal production with everyone having a voice, feeling confident and comfortable on set. Talent is nurtured within such an environment and this is often forgotten amongst a lot of modern day crews. Yesterday we were totally reliant on the wider the team to accommodate the project requirements and assist us with their professional skillset. 10/10 all round. Wrapped in 23.
