About GYST


Get Your Stuff Together

GYST is a commitment, from two experienced computer geeks. We provide a unique mix of services across three continents and turn your problems into our solutions. And have done for over 30 years. GYST stands for ‘Get Your Stuff Together’. It started life many years ago in England. And that ‘S’ has many meanings.

Design

Networks and database design evolved into I.T. consultancy and business services, which paid the bills and funded a move to Canada in 2004. Building solutions evolved into document production and technical writing. From there it morphed into custom web site development, SEO, and hosting. A short hop to graphic design, marketing, print advertising, and then photography services, which has been the focus for the last 20 years.

Computers

Nikki and Carl both have technical backgrounds. Carl owned an Internet Cafe and for a time played games for a living. Nikki has worked in computer support for over 20 years, including 10 as office manager for an ISP. She ran email systems and servers, and took care of computer repairs. Nikki is a marvel at data recovery and rarely loses a patient. If your wedding photos just went up in digital smoke she’s the one to contact. With years of practical experience she can replace components, and often reclaim those precious memories and critical data without loss.

Photography and Media

Corporate and large events are a specialty for GYST services. As working commercial photographers we cover everything from intimate personal shoots, to birthday and retirement parties, trade shows and conferences, and weddings and multi-day events. Our specialty is managing those larger projects where hundred or thousands of images are captured on the day. Additionally, our print services provide post-event add-on items such as photo books and posters, keepsakes and gallery quality art for your walls. GYST has an Advanced drone pilot license, so we can fly in restricted areas. Very useful.

We provide photography shoots anywhere in the Niagara region. That said, we also have passports and will happily travel for destination events.

We’re here to help. We know how. We will Get Your Stuff Together. So why not get in touch?
