Something exciting just went live — and we couldn't be prouder. 🙌

We've just launched the brand new website for Blackbird Soul Studios and it's been a proper end-to-end project. We designed Abbie's full brand identity first (Thanks Guy!) - logo, colour palette, visual style, and then built the website around it. Seeing it all come together is one of those genuinely satisfying moments.

Abbie Trayler-Smith is a story-led photographer based in Somerset. She has a rare gift for putting people completely at ease, and it shows in every single image she takes, from personal portraits to brand shoots to large-scale commissions for clients like Greenpeace.

If you're thinking about refreshing your brand, your headshots, or your whole visual identity, she's the one.

Go and have a look ❤️

This was one of those jobs that you know you want to get done, but everything that comes in the door jumps above it. However, - last week I finally got it arranged. Long story, short (follow the link for more info) - I got my fantastic team together with a client, brought them over to Lace Cottage - Featherkite HQ - and we had a Photoshoot.

Now I have images for my website (that i now want to refresh ) and for all my social media posts, that are genuine shots of me, and my Graphic Design partner, doing our thing down here in glorious Devon.

Abbie Trayler-Smith (the insanely talented photographer) took some headshots, too - so now my personal LinkedIn looks more professional, too.

Lots more on this to come, as Featherkite has one of it's best years ever and next up I'm going to run a series of Social Media posts to celebrate some of the Brands & Websites we've created over the past 20 years.

Happy October!

Featherkite PhotoshootWe got the team together for a catch up & some photos2025 continues to be the year that I tick things off my list. I have been meaning to do this for some time and I’m really pleased I got it done.There are two very important things I try and do at the start of any New Websit...

Is your website costing you more than it brings in and putting your business at risk?

Most business owners have no idea what their website actually costs them each month. Between hosting fees, domain renewals, e-mail services and hidden charges you could be inadvertently overpaying annually.

What happens when (not if) you get hacked?

▪️No proper backups?
▪️Outdated security?
▪️Days or weeks of no website/re-directed pages?
▪️Spending hours on the phone to someone who hasn't even seen your site before?

One security breach could cost your business more than you realise.

This is where our 50 Point Featherkite Website Audit comes in. For just £99 our in-depth (no obligation) review of your site will show:

✅ Hidden costs draining your budget
✅ Security and performance vulnerabilities putting you at risk
✅ Simple fixes that could save you money and keep your website working hard for you

Are you ready to see what your website is REALLY costing you?

We’re proud to share the new website we’ve created for Installations SW Ltd – a business that’s all about precision, cutting edge technology, and individuality.

Michael came to us with a clear creative direction:

➡️A site that moved from light to dark
➡️ Luxurious but simple
➡️ Sophisticated — just like his installations

We took that vision and built a website that feels high-end, considered, and completely unique to Bespoke Installations. We also gave the logo a subtle refresh — keeping it recognisable, just more refined and modern.

The result is a clean, confident online space that feels like a natural extension of the brand.

And credit where it’s due, the stunning photography by Aisling Magill brings so much of the site to life. Her imagery plays a key role in showcasing Bespoke’s style and attention to detail.

This is the third refresh of Bespoke's website for us, we have been designing and hosting their websites for over 23 years!

I've had a super busy few months but I particularly enjoyed this bit of business. Featherkite Boutique Web Consultancy have renewed their 'Digital' partnership with Tiverton Rugby Club Junior Section , my boyhood club in Devon where I've been involved as a Coach, amongst other things for the past 10 years or so.

We had a fantastic photoshoot with local Photographer, Abbie Trayler-Smith and I'm now spending hours in photoshop (my happy place) creating Instagram posts for the Colts - which the lads love - showing off their new from local supplier Kitworld Ltd .

I'm hoping this will help lift the Online presence of the club, help them gain the interest of more sponsors and also serve to help me market my Graphic Design and Social Media Marketing skills. Everyone wins. Which is what partnerships are all about.
