Selected engagements, and when they started
Two of these are client engagements and one is my own business. Each carries the year it started and whether it is still running today. I take three clients at a time, so a long list on this page would mean something had gone wrong with the arrangement rather than right. The dates are the part worth reading.
Every engagement, and the year it started
Ampy
One client since April 2025: a first town site, the network built from it, then the flagship. All of it still operated here.
View case studyChris Kelechukwu Photography
Chris's own photography brand, which predates BespokeForge: a beauty, portrait, and wedding photography business. Built on a page builder but engineered custom. A bespoke CSS framework, every piece of content from a structured custom-fields backend, and booking flows that run themselves. Proof that custom work does not mean avoiding the tools a client already has.

A bespoke platform and content system, built here and maintained here on the Upkeep plan. The public site has not launched yet.

New client engagements start with the audit. What follows is decided by what the audit finds and by what you need next, and either outcome is a valid one.
Scoped after the audit, at a fixed price agreed before work begins. Milestone-based delivery, no templates, engineered for the business you have and the one you are heading towards.
Once one person is answerable for a system, making it faster or safer is part of running it rather than a separate purchase. I do not take on a one-off repair of somebody else's build.
Monitoring, updates, incidents and a written record each month, for a system built here or adopted here. The person who built it is the person who answers when it breaks, which is the whole reason the retainer exists.
Your situation isn't on this page.
Everything above is still running, and that is the only thing this page sets out to prove. Yours is the system worth talking about instead, so describe what you are running, in whatever words you use for it internally.
Twenty-five minutes on Google Meet, and a straight answer either way.

You get a straight answer on whether the audit is worth doing at all, including when it is not.
