Hi, I’m James Sheriff — a web designer living in Manchester with a camera always within reach. By day, I run two companies, Genius Division and Better, alongside my longtime creative co-conspirators Craig Burgess and Richard Keys. By night (or whenever the light’s good), I’m usually out chasing moments with my camera — mostly for the joy of it.

    We used to go to Amsterdam regularly when we first started Genius Division. We close the business down for a long weekend and all the staff would go for a weekend away.
