About Shooma
Shooma is a small web agency. In fact most of the time it’s just me, Tim Print. Although I do have a network of experts I can bring in if a project requires some specialist input.
This approach makes us much more flexible and keeps our overheads to a minimum without compromising on quality. Our small size has some big advantages for you. You won’t pay for a team of account handlers, account executives or accountants. In fact you won’t pay for anyone with account in their job title.
What you will get is great design, lean code and a friendly, personal relationship with the person who is writing it.
About me
For me it all started with illustration at college, paper and pencils, perspective, paints, airbrushing and a love for creating something technically accurate. Photoshop was a natural progression from there and most of my career has been spent as a retouch artist for graphic design companies. I have worked for many blue chip clients including the Royal Shakespeare Company and Jaguar Cars.
In around 2004 I began to experiment with building websites and soon found that my love for problem solving and visual skills had found a happy new home.
The experience I gained as a retoucher has become invaluable now. I know how to manage time critical workloads and how to communicate clearly as part of a project team. Designing and building a website requires many different skills but I believe clear communication is one of the keys to success.
I love the combination of great design and smart technology in a really successful website. I love that the playing field is constantly changing. There is no time to stand still and every day I learn something new. I am passionate about my work and look forward to the challenges of each new project.
In March 2009 I decided it was time to branch out for myself and Shooma was born. You can find out a bit more about me on my personal site.
