2022 – it begins

Established in 2022, JBL Creative began as James’ dream to be his own boss. More importantly, it was about spending quality time with his family while doing what he loves.

The idea

We initially launched with plans to become a drone photography and surveying business. However, our creativity soon took us in a whole new direction.

End of 2022

By the end of our first year, we’d worked with more than 20 businesses and individuals. As a result, we delivered video, photo, and social content that helped them stand out and connect.

The demand

As demand grew for social video and brand photography, we shifted our focus to helping small businesses and individuals build their online presence.

Start of 2025

As we kick off 2025, JBL Creative has worked with almost 100 clients, delivering standout content across events, small businesses, bespoke birthdays, creative projects, music videos, and more. In fact, no two projects have been the same — and that’s exactly how we like it.

From social media content that grabs attention to promo videos that tell your story, we’ve been helping brands and individuals build their online presence in a way that feels genuine and impactful. For instance, we’ve worked on everything from small business promos to creative campaigns that resonate with audiences. Whether it’s a one-off project or a long-term collaboration, we bring big ideas and creative flair to every job.

Moreover, as we head into the new year, we’re ready to help even more clients stand out and make their mark with content that connects. Therefore, if you’re looking for photography, videography, or social media content that tells your story, JBL Creative is here to help.

FOCUS On You

Alright, that’s what we do now let’s make it all about YOU.

SO. How do we work WITH you?

At JBL Creative, we’re all about making things look good and making your life a whole lot easier when it comes to showing up online. Let’s be real — creating content that actually connects with people can feel overwhelming. You’ve got the ideas, the passion, the business… but then there’s the whole “how do I get people to notice?” thing. That’s exactly where we come in.

Think of us as your creative partners — not some stiff, suit-wearing agency. Instead, we’re down-to-earth, real people who love what we do, and we bring that energy to every project. Whether you’re a business owner, brand, or individual, we’ll help you show up in a way that feels authentic, not awkward.

For example, need a video that shows off your brand’s personality? Done. How about photography that doesn’t just look good but tells your story? Sorted. Maybe your social media needs a bit of a kick up the backside? Absolutely. We’ll bring the ideas, the gear, and the expertise to make it happen — all you need to do is show up.

Our approach? We keep it simple. No confusing jargon, no fluff. In fact, we want to make the whole process easy and enjoyable. After all, if creating content isn’t fun, it shows. We want to work with people who are just as passionate about what they do as we are. And trust us, that passion is contagious.

“James is absolutely incredible to work with. Not only is he very skilled and knowledgeable about his craft but he’s also very understanding of the artist/ business he is working with and the vision they have for their project. When I’ve worked with James on projects before he has made sure it’s my vision being brought to life. Couldn’t recommend more!!”

“James started working with us a couple of months ago. He has helped us overhaul and upgrade our social media platforms, and is working with us on site to create new high quality video and photo content for these platforms and to improve all of our marketing materials. James is professional, energetic, friendly and empathetic. He is working incredibly well with our staff and our guests and is a pleasure to have on site. The work he is creating is already having a significant impact on our bookings and and profile. He will be working with us for the foreseeable future and we feel lucky to have him as a freelance creative partner.”

“James has been with us helping us with SM since our conception at ChalkUp! Climbing/Fitness/Crossfit in Somerset. He has a passion for what we do and it shines through in his work. Giving above and beyond what we ask of him simply because he wants to do a professional job. He has an eye for a great photo and his reels are just that little bit different, while being top notch quality at the same time. He very much welcomes our input and we seem to have a good balance of him keeping the wheels turning while we throw ideas at him when we have some time- then he works his magic and the result is just what we are after!”

“I have really enjoyed working with James. I have never had to be filmed for anything other than silly family stuff, and was very nervous about the whole thing. James’ supportive, professional and friendly manner was amazing. We had fun, learnt a lot and managed to get the whole thing wrapped up with great ease and enjoyment. I would thoroughly recommend James – and very much hope we will work together again soon.”
