Our story

From a photography studio to a Google Premier Partner

We set up SF Digital Studios in 2002 as photographers, shooting portraits and corporate work for local businesses.

Then the internet changed how businesses find customers. Our clients needed more than photos. They needed websites, videos and a way to get found.

So we learned it, tested it on our own business first, and started doing it for them.

Today we are in the top 3% of Google Partners in the UK, and we still work the same way: we only recommend what we use ourselves.

Meet Uzair and Farzana

Hi, I'm Farzana and I'm Uzair. We're the people behind SF Digital Studios. We're a husband and wife team and we've been doing this together since 2002. We didn't start in marketing. We started as photographers with a studio here in Leighton Buzzard. Then the internet changed how businesses find customers. Our clients needed more than photos. They needed websites, videos, and a way to get found.

So, we learned it. We tested everything on our business first and then we started doing it for others. That's still how we work today. We only recommend what we use ourselves. Along the way, Google made us a Google partner. We started our YouTube channel in 2014 and we've shared free videos every week since. Today, we're a Google Premier Partner, which puts us in the top 3% of Google partners in the UK.

We're also YouTube certified. I look after the Google Ads, YouTube and AI side. I also coach business owners and marketeers around the world. And I look after our clients. I keep every project on track from the first call to the monthly results so nothing slips through the net. Behind the two of us is a talented team. We have designers, copywriters, coders, Google ad specialist, a video editing team.

It's all in-house. Your website, your content, your videos, and your ads are made by people who work together every day. After 24 years, we've seen what works and what doesn't. And we'll always tell you the truth, even when it's not what you want to hear. We treat every client's business like our own. That's the bit I love most, getting to know you and your goals.

So, let's start there. Click book a call button for a free 30-minute call on Google Meet. Your next customers are out there. Let's go and get them. Thank you for your time and I look forward to seeing you sometime soon.
