Francesca Nunn  Office Manager

Francesca joined our expanding team in the summer of 2006 and takes over the running of our busy office.  She is on hand to deal with all customer queries and client liaison including bookings and image requests.  Her major achievement to date was that she managed to completely finish off a whole tin of Christmas Quality Street in a single week.  A West Ham Fan, Francesca spends most Monday mornings depressed but by Friday night, her spirits have lifted with the optimism that Saturday may bring.

Outside of the office Francesca enjoys binge eating, horse riding and brass rubbing.
