Having…read moreworked with a number of web design agencies, it was refreshing to work with someone who clearly had excellent technical knowledge but was able to share that knowledge in a way that was easy to understand and visualise. Adam understood that we wished to have as much control as possible over our website once it was live. Not only did he build the site with this in mind, he put together a comprehensive training package to ensure this could happen. Our new website is fresh, modern, mobile friendly and has already had excellent feedback from our customers.

But despite the fact that they have just set up the business the facilities and prices at this stage are fairly good. I would come here if I wanted an electro or dance track recorded, I got a feeling that this is the businesses specialty. ** Recording Pricing ** 1st Hour = £15 Additional Hours = £10 per hour Mastering = £10 per track ** Sound design Pricing ** Single projects = £15 per hour After talking to the managers I got a feeling that they knew their technical knowledge, and even though I haven't used their services yet, I am likely to in the future.

This photography studio has been here for 10 years (10 YEARS) and I had the pleasure of visiting it…read morefor the first time a couple of months ago. When my fabulous nail lady Beena moved premises to Tip Top and gave me directions, I was totally confused... "Which photography studio in the JQ?"... Once you have located it (there are signs outside) and climbed the staircase, you'll be greeted by one of the residents of the building. The studio is at the back of the set up with a bathroom, beauticians, office space and an agency all housed together. The studio itself is wonderful. Not huge, but set out with distinct areas for different styles of photoshoots. There is also a dressing room at the back for touching up your style pre-shoot. As well as product shoots, the studio do private shoots, themed event days (where live animals come into the studio), family shoots and photography courses. I'm pretty confident that you could become a Tip Top photographer yourself under the care of Debbie and Steve. This is a gem of a photography studio in the Jewellery Quarter. If you're looking to have some shots done, I thoroughly recommend it!

Tip Top Photography, tucked away in the Jewellery Quarter, is a really nice place to get some…read morephoties taken! I discovered the studio recently, at an evening of photography and cocktails organised by Yelp. As part of the event we each got complimentary head shots taken by the Tip Top crew. I'm quite camera shy, especially in a room full of people, but the photographer and director were really friendly and professional and put me at ease quickly. I was advised on where to stand, in which direction to look and how I could pose, whilst the photographer snapped away. Shortly after the event I got one of the finished head shots by email - easy peasy! The studio is quite large and well equipped. They have a range of different backdrops and props for you to use, ranging from a scroll top bathtub to a tiny wooden horse. There's even a dedicated sprucing up area at the back, should you require a quick costume change. I would definitely recommend Tip Top to anyone who wants to get some professional photos taken. They are friendly and professional and it was a fun experience!

We looked in the listings and found that Baker Ward Ltd does the following. Signs, vehicle graphics, shop signs, illuminated signs, advertising signs, van graphics, vehicle wrapping, banners, school signs, car graphics, vehicle livery, safety signs, pavement signs, projecting signs, window graphics, menus, restaurant signs, pub signs. We were a little worried that they might be a jack of all trades, but we went ahead any way and the quality of workmanship was superb. The sign didn't look cheap or plastic. It was made out of wood and had a very fine print on them. I will be coming back here again for all of my graphics needs.

They are also a lovely bunch to work with - very good at client relationships; treading that difficult line between listening to the client's needs and wants, but also inputting their own expert design ideas. They do web, print, branding and basically anything that involves design, and are fast establishing a reputation as one of Birmingham's best design companies. The reputation is well deserved: they work hard and produce great stuff. Nuff said.

I met the very recently married James and Kate through Birmingham Likemind about two years ago. Likemind (reviewed here too) is simply my favourite Friday of the month and Katie & James, until recently ran the coffee & chat morning. I love the work Supercool do but also love the attitude. I've met their interns and their employee who seem to take the same absolute pleasure in their work. I know of their design work done for Dance Xchange (who I heard raving about the work), Virgin Balloon Flights and Style Birmingham.
