About Me
Welcome to my website. My name is Jason Horncastle. I have over 30 years experience in the fields of marketing, advertising, editorial production and photography.
Past Experience
After growing up in Woodbridge, in 1984 I moved to Milan to work as a photographer, journalist and editor for monthly yachting and travel magazines. In 1991, I was a founding partner of Turnkey Brochures and Photography, a “boutique” agency that was one of the first to take advantage of new communications technologies to work with clients in the yachting and travel markets worldwide (see client list below). Over the next 20 years I worked with clients in 19 countries spread over 3 continents, including government bodies (Kenya Ministry of Tourism, Anguilla Tourist Board, Turks & Caicos Tourist Board), major hotels, U.S. boat builders, safari and tour companies.
Now, having returned to live near Woodbridge, I am offering my experience to clients in this area. With skills that stretch from branding strategy to web development, graphic design and photography I can provide a wide spectrum of services – see here for a full description.
My Promise to You
I work alone so you will have the advantage of working with just one person. Although I have a great deal of experience, I don’t pretend to know all the answers (nobody in this fast moving industry does). But if I don’t know the answer to a problem I will research a solution and I will work with transparency and honesty, keeping you informed of how things are going throughout.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have or to discuss your requirements.
