I'm Vanessa, a small business owner based in Surrey.  After many years as a marketeer, and more recently running my own lifestyle photography business, I am so excited to be combining my two areas of experience to be able to help other creative small businesses elevate their brand online, through either brand photography which reflects their unique proposition, or through a new website that sets them apart online.

Hello!

My career in marketing spans many global brands including Bacardi Global Brands, Intercontinental Hotels and Visa International. More recently, since becoming a mum and moving to the country, I have been running my own successful photography business, 'Beginnings by Vanessa Keevil Photography'.

I know the challenges of running a small business and having to be a master of all things. I also know how critical it is to present your business so it stands apart from the rest.  Since starting this new initiative in 2020 I have loved seeing my client's small businesses flourish in a space that they didn't have the time or experience to master themselves.

I am totally delighted with Vanessa's work on my website. She is creative, knowledgeable, organised and efficient and the results are amazing. Her stunning photography has helped to define my brand style and her product photography has elevated my collections and given them a premium appeal.

Vanessa was amazing from start to finish! Her advice, creativity, knowledge and expertise has produced a website that I am so proud to call my own! The quality is amazing and she was so professional throughout the process and always keeping me up to date.  She has created the most beautiful site!

I cannot highly recommend Vanessa enough if you are looking for a website builder who will work alongside you, has a creative and artistic flair along with having patience and perseverance to help you achieve a professional end product.
