About Maxine Brady

I’m an art director, set designer and stylist based in Brighton and London, working with PR and event agencies, production companies and brands.

I started out as a magazine Style Editor, specialising in interiors and lifestyle. I learned how to produce and style shoots on tight budgets, which is a habit I’m proud to say I’ve kept.

Today, I work closely with creative agencies, production crews and photographic teams, bringing ideas to life for brands like Disney, Spotify, IKEA, Saatchi & Saatchi, Debenhams and Lloyds, with my work appearing in The Guardian and Sunday Times Style.

My long freelance career has allowed me to work on some seriously creative projects. I’ve decorated a boat on the Thames for Barclays, sourced miles of fake grass for a Ralph Lauren X Wimbledon shoot, and dressed dogs in Santa outfits for a pet food ad campaign.

Over the past 27 years I’ve picked up a wide range of skills to handle all situations, from styling a millionaire’s birthday party to making over a council house for ITV’s This Morning. And if a job needs more hands, I know the best set builders, photographers, videographers and locations, so I can handle the project for you.

I know first hand that budgets come in all sizes. Some of my favourite work has been clever styling on a shoestring, and I’ll always tell you honestly what’s possible with what you have.

Got a project in mind? Please get in touch, I’d love to hear what you’re planning. In the meantime, see my services and browse my portfolio
