Hire the Best Illustrators in Bedford, UK

Hello, there! You can call me Leha. I'm a scientist by education, an artist by birth and a published illustrator of many children's picturebooks. I love to draw whimsical illustrations both digitally and with mixed media, and any sort of illustrative work interests me, especially those with stories to tell. If you need an experienced illustrator/designer for the following, I'd love to work with you! ⁘ ART DIRECTION FOR PICTUREBOOKS — so you have a script and want to publish a children's book but don't know where to start? I can work with you/your illustrator to make your book impactful and enjoyable. ⁘ BOOK ILLUSTRATIONS — if you're looking for high quality images with a lot of heart and whimsy put into them, I'd love to join you. ⁘ PROFESSIONAL CHILDREN'S BOOK LAYOUTS (KDP/Ingram/other traditional or digital publishing) — including typography, and full cover design ⁘ PREPARING BOOKS for publication — a polished book makes all the difference. Please contact me if there's anything other than the above you'd want to work with me for. I'm open to talking about different projects. I have had 5 children's books published in the past few years, for which I designed both the illustrations and the final book layouts for printing, and countless others for which I have created layouts. I love drawing stylized animals and environments—even though I am equally excited to challenge myself to illustrate different things. Being a self-taught illustrator freelancing for over a decade, I have grown to have a high attention to detail. I've worked in-office for a children's publishing house and welfare organization, where I was the head graphic designer and illustrator. Timelines and the clarity of objectives are extremely important to the way I work, and it is imperative to me that I take on work that intrigues me, so I deliver the best work possible for those clients. I would be happy to talk through any projects you need done to see what works best for the both of us. I'm excited to help you illustrate your vision! I am proficient in the following software: Adobe Photoshop, Adobe InDesign, Procreate. I am based in both the UK and Pakistan.

Most SaaS and healthcare products fail not because of bad engineering, but because of confusing interfaces that users abandon. I fix that. I'm a UX/UI designer specialising in SaaS dashboards and healthcare apps — with 50+ completed projects, 2,200+ hours, a 100% Job Success Score, and a 4.8★ rating from 69 clients on Upwork. 🎯 Where I deliver the most value: • SaaS dashboard design — data-heavy interfaces that are clear, scannable, and action-oriented • Healthcare app UX/UI — patient portals, clinical workflows, EHR interfaces, and health tracking apps designed with HIPAA-sensitivity and accessibility in mind • Mobile app design (iOS & Android) — native and cross-platform • Responsive web design — landing pages, marketing sites, product pages • Wireframing, user flows & interactive prototyping in Figma • Design systems & component libraries built for dev handoff 🛠 How I work: I don't open Figma until I understand your users. For SaaS products, I map the core workflows first so your dashboard reduces cognitive load, not adds to it. For healthcare, I design with compliance, clarity, and accessibility as non-negotiables, not afterthoughts. Every deliverable is dev-ready: annotated specs, organised component libraries, and clean Figma files your engineers can actually build from. 🌍 UK-based, working with startups, scale-ups, and digital health companies across the US, Europe, and beyond. Deadline-driven. Clear communicator. Zero surprises. If you're building a SaaS product or healthcare app and need a designer who understands the complexity, let's talk.
