About Ashlyn Framing Studio
Richard Pinches
After a long career in Banking, I established Ashlyn Framing Studio in 2018 with the idea that a memory is not just a photograph or picture, but it is also the little things that made the occasion so special. It is those little items that evoke a smile about an event or person, or help to tell a story of what it was like at the time, that we tend to put away in a box and forget about. At Ashlyn Framing Studio I look to help you bring pictures and items together so that you can enjoy the memories every day.
​
In addition to specialising in object framing, I also offer a wide range of services:
- standard framing
- conservation framing
- frame repair and restoration
- mount cutting
- photograph colourisation
​
Having worked in a customer service industry for 33 years, I am a strong believer that the basis of any successful business is a commitment to provide an excellent personal service to it's customers. I am passionate about providing all of my customers with a 5 star service. It is always my aim to ensure that I completely understand your requirements, offer advice and guidance, and then produce a frame that you are fully satisfied with and will have pride in displaying in your home.
​
Ashlyn Framing Studio is based at my home in Sedgley, and allows me to offer one to one consultations to discuss your proposed frame at a time that is convenient for you. To ensure that I can give you my full attention, I work on an appointment only basis. So, please feel free to complete my enquiry form and I will contact you to arrange a time and date when we can discuss the ideas you have for your piece.

In March 2019, Ashlyn Framing Studio teamed up with Kat Skorka of Skorkart, to provide a bespoke framing service via her Gallery/Shop at Halfpenny Green Wine Estate. You can take your items to Kat during her opening hours and she will be happy to assist you with your requirements.
​
In December 2021, my wife Lisa left her job as a Teaching Assistant to join me in the business. As well as helping me with the framing, Lisa will be also developing her own range of hand made gifts and frames which can be purchased through her shop on our website.
