Claire Bignell
Claire is our Project Manager and has been part of the team for more than four years. She worked as a senior designer in the fashion business for many years.
Working closely with Justine, she has styled the props for numerous book and video shoots. She creates mood boards for our larger projects and is always on the look-out for new and interesting ways to make our food content irresistible. Claire also brings her eye for detail and no-nonsense approach to recipe testing.
Karen Brooks
Karen is our Studio Manager and, having joined us after a successful career in aviation, she knows a great system when she sees one. This super-organised, hands-on approach has proved hugely popular with Studio clients.
As a committed vegetarian with years of meat-free cooking and eating behind her, Karen has some great steers for our veggie and vegan projects.
Jess Blain
The most junior member of the regular team in the test kitchen, Jess brings both a passion for food and a great sense of humour. Jess develops her skills and builds her food knowledge whilst cheerfully managing the huge amounts of washing up we generate!
