Hi'
My name is Justin and I've been running my own framing business for the last 20+ years.
Also a keen photographer, something I'm trying to do more of.

Thanks everyone.
I was in a bit of a rush when I first posted. My priority was this http://theframersforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=32&t=8112
As I said I've been running my business for 20+ years. Mainly trade work but do my fair share of bespoke work too. Based on the outskirts of St Austell in the village of Tregrehan which itself is a 20 min walk to the Eden project. I enjoy all aspects of the framing industry and I'm always interested in learning new things.
Based where I am it's been a struggle over the past few years as I don't get any passing trade and rely on word of mouth. Started photography in 2007 as a hobby and had a small show of images, just for fun, back in April 2010. Sold some 50 panoramic canvases of my work since that from just the one gallery. Would like to expand that but finding the time is tough.
