Testimonials
Amy Brown
I cannot recommend James from Tomorrow’s Creative enough! James jumped onto the project with us to lead the camera department and was quick to establish a rock solid workflow, working to organise the Camera department well ahead of the shoot day. Even with a changing schedule everything was handled professionally and efficiently with a great work attitude. With Tomorrow’s Creative onboard, your shoot day will be in very safe hands!
John Barratt
James Melrose was a pleasure to work with on S&W, which consisted of taxi interviews and a commercial shoot for a brand. As the Production Manager, I found him outstanding from start to finish. We started early doors and wrapped at an evening event, and throughout the whole day he brought constant drive, professionalism, and a great attitude. Super reliable, easy to talk to, and always on top of communication and information. The kit setup was excellent and he just got on with the job without any fuss, making the whole production run smoothly. Proper hard-working self shooter/photographer who goes above and beyond — would happily work with him again and highly recommend.

James was very professional and carried out the work that we requested to a high standard.
