“Helen is the best [freelance] provider I have ever worked with in the 5 year period I have been using [freelance platform]. She was relentless in making sure my project worked - a sophisticated photographic photobook project. She bought creativity, caring, skilled advice and passion to my project. You can't ask for anything more! All I can do really is recommend her at the highest level. She should be awarded 10 stars - 5 is not enough.”
