A Sydney-based independent creative agency focused on website, video, and photography services for sex workers.
Kim was fantastic from first communication to post-project tweaks. As someone with intimate knowledge of the industries relevant to my website, her expertise was invaluable in advising on various options and solutions for me to choose from in realising my ideas. Her work was efficient and detailed, with constant communication, checking in, and speedy alteration whenever necessary. The whole process was clear, transparent, affordable, and perfectly tailored to my needs.
Kim was such a dream to work with throughout the whole process of building my site. She has very extensive technical knowledge and broke information down really clearly for me. I felt like I could ask her anything and never felt stupid. She helped me find and consolidate all of my all of my lost log ins, hosts, servers and registrations which I had scattered in all different places. She was so prompt in her replies and worked really quickly and efficiently – I was the main hold up! She accommodated all of my requests (and changes of mind) and paid attention to detail and function. She always kept my particular style and aesthetic in mind when suggesting design options, which was important for me. She was also generous in guiding me through how to make edits and updates myself, which was really empowering. I felt so relieved to be in such safe hands and am stoked with what she created.
Now more than ever it’s integral for sex workers to have their own website, and I cannot recommend Red Cloud Hosting and Bumbershoot Creative enough.My first priority when having a site designed was keeping my money within the sex worker community, and Red Cloud is proudly peer owned and run.They were a pleasure to deal with from start to finish, going the extra mile to gain a comprehensive understanding of the direction I wanted to take my business in. The finished product not only perfectly reflected my brand, but elevated it to an elite level of professionalism. Having a polished website with all my information in one place has made fielding inquiries so much more easy, and has improved the quality of clientele I attract.As sex workers we can’t control the laws which may have our social media accounts deleted or our directories taken down. But we can build our own home online, and I can think of nobody better than Red Cloud Hosting and Bumbershoot Creative to help carve out your own corner of the internet.
Shooting with Kim and Jason was so much fun! They are so warm and easy to work with. They both made a great atmosphere for workshopping and experimentation and fostered a great environment for creativity. We felt comfortable in our bodies the whole time and felt really heard. Kim and Jason are a really professional pair together, are excellent communicators and complement each other. They brought fresh ideas to a strong collaborative process and helped make our vision come to fruition. The aesthetic was just as we originally spoke about and the quality of shots was amazing. They sourced an incredible location that fit our style perfectly. They were super generous with their time and a pleasure to work with!
I just want to say a HUGE thank you to Red Cloud & Bumbershoot Creative for helping me level up my business & online presence. It's been a difficult year in more ways than one & having a dedicated space to advertise myself, alternative services, write & feel like 'a home' has been invaluable. I'm not a super tech-y or design person, but I definitely know what I like & what I don't like & the process of working with you has meant I have been able to really crystalise my branding. The site you've made me is beautiful, I feel like it embodies my spirit but is also beautifully simple & functional. I am so grateful for your time & expertise. Especially when Twitter decided it didn't like my URL, you looked into it straight away & had me rerouted super quickly. I felt so supported starting out navigating the guts of my site too. Thank you for hosting me, thank you for making my site & thank you for genuinely giving a fuck about your customers. I have been recommending you to everyone I know, because I have been so happy with your products & services. Thank you again, Alex Louise aka Pleasant_Danger
