Design services
Brands and websites for small businesses
Logos, brand identities, websites, social media and print for entrepreneurs and small businesses. Thoughtful design, a real strategy behind it, and files that are fully yours when we're done.
Why work with me
More than a pretty logo
Before I design anything, I think about who needs to notice your brand, what will make them remember it, and everywhere it has to work. Then I design it, and I check it isn't too close to something already out there.
Before going out on my own, I spent about four years designing for businesses in Leduc and area with Market House Ltd. Now I work one on one with small businesses and entrepreneurs.
Research, your audience and your goals come before a single line is drawn.
Colours, fonts and rules that keep your brand looking consistent everywhere.
Full ownership of your final files and website once your project is paid in full.

Fill out the inquiry form with what you need and what you're hoping for.
Let's meet
We meet over Zoom or Google Meet to talk through your business, your goals and the plan.
Contract and deposit
I send your contract and an invoice for a 50% non-refundable deposit, which covers my planning and design time.
I get to work
Research, strategy and design. For logos, you'll see at least three directions based on your goals.
Review together
We meet again to go over the first designs, then refine and finalize with your round of revisions.
Final files
Once the balance is paid, your final files or website ownership are transferred to you.
Timelines
How long it usually takes
These are best-case timelines, with no extra steps added along the way and good communication on both sides. Timing depends on our schedules lining up, how quickly feedback comes back, and how many rounds of changes a project needs. The sooner I hear back, the sooner you have your files. Sometimes a client loves the first design and we're done fast. Sometimes it takes a few more conversations to get it right.

Good to know
Before we start
Every project includes one round of revisions plus cleaned-up final files. Extra revisions are $80 an hour, so the clearer your feedback, the further your budget goes.
A 50% non-refundable deposit starts your project. The balance is due before final files or website ownership are transferred.
Once your project is paid in full, your final design files and website are yours.
Portraits and headshots are yours to use. For product, scenic and brand photos, I keep ownership and you can use them for what you paid for. They can't be entered into contests, and published photos need photographer credit.
