“Working with Keith was a pleasure when updating our website. From the very start to the completion of the project, Keith was very attentive and offered his expert advice and developed options to assist us in achieving our objectives visually to create a modern, vibrant, and dynamic looking website. Keith would respond to emails, update any changes, or present alternative options promptly which made the whole process run very smoothly and efficiently. We are delighted with our new look website which serves as a shop front for Ampersand for both our Irish retail customers and potential new brand partners and thanks to KL Studios creates a memorable first impression.”
