About us

We set up Light Blue Software to bring you Light Blue, which we developed over several years in collaboration with professional photographers.

Light Blue Software is:

  • a small, responsive company, not a soulless corporation
  • committed to giving you value for money by producing good software at a reasonable price.
  • keen to hear from you if you've got ideas for things which should be added or changed in a future version of Light Blue.
  • run and staffed by people who have a passionate interest in producing really good stuff.

Light Blue Software is not:

  • a faceless multinational with salesmen called Brad who have shiny shoes and say 'Hey y'all'.
  • set in its ways; if we can work out a better way of doing something, we'll work our hardest to see how we can incorporate that idea
  • Fairtrade or organic (we would be if we could, but we make software, so it's not an option for us).

The Directors

London and Cambridge wedding photographer Tom Catchesides specialises in weddings, portraiture, commercial and PR work, and was recently listed as one of the top 10 wedding photographers in the UK. Before becoming a full-time photographer, he was a software developer; Light Blue is based on the program he created for his business as it developed.

Cambridge graphic designer Hamish Symington has a degree from the University of Cambridge and trained in design at the London College of Communication. He worked for the University of Cambridge and Cambridge University Press for a number of years, eventually becoming the Press' Marketing Design Manager, and now runs a busy studio specialising in marketing materials for small to medium-size companies.

Tom and Hamish are real people (Tom's the one on the right); if you contact Light Blue Software, you'll like as not receive a reply from one or other of them.
