Meet The Team Behind Ink and Tide
Creative Professional Dedicated to Your Success
Spoiler Alert: It's Mostly Me.
I'm Lou, founder of Ink And Tide.
Part event manager, part designer, part problem-solver and occasional professional plate-spinner, I specialise in helping projects run smoothly behind the scenes while making sure the end result looks great too.
From managing large-scale community events and festivals to creating branding, websites and practical systems, I thrive on bringing order to chaos and helping ideas find their flow.
The name Ink And Tide reflects two things that have shaped my career: creativity and movement. The ink represents design, storytelling and ideas; the tide represents events, people and the momentum that turns plans into reality.
Based in South Devon and inspired by the coast, I work with organisations, businesses and community groups who need a trusted pair of hands, a fresh perspective, or someone who can quietly make things happen.
No big agency. No unnecessary jargon. Just practical support, creative thinking and a genuine passion for helping great ideas succeed.
