Who we are

Hey, I’m Darren—a photography and business geek who’s spent over 25 years in the commercial world and the last 10 behind the camera. I love talking business, crunching numbers, and discovering what makes different brands tick. Getting to combine all that with my passion for photography? Honestly, I couldn’t ask for a better job.

People often ask where the name Bare Creatives comes from. Well, there are two stories. One is that I wanted link it to my Warwickshire roots—the Bear and Ragged Staff—and bring a bit of that history into my brand. The other? I’m a terrible speller, and let’s just say “Bare” was one of my biggest slip-ups! But it stuck, and over time, it took on a deeper meaning. I love helping businesses strip things back to their core and build a brand they’re proud of. So maybe it was a happy accident, or maybe it was meant to be—but either way, Bare Creative is all about getting to the heart of what makes a brand unique.
