Launching a new business in a new sector after many years working in a corporate career is a daunting prospect. It was such a pleasure to become Lisa's brand partner and work with her through the early positioning stages, to consulting on her brand identity and launching her website with a clearly defined SEO strategy.  Rox Travel has hit her business targets of the first few months and Lisa hasn't looked back on her old career!

An elegant, clean and beautiful design was briefed for this photography business to reflect the new branding and allow the photography portfolio to take centre stage.  Incorporating a blog and a simple sales enquiry tool, it has generated an uplift in sales enquiries.

Sharene had outgrown her website, now 5 years old it no longer reflected her business and wasn't attracting her ideal clients. After a rebrand, I worked with Sharene on some brand photography as well as the new website.  Sharene has reported that the new site has led to an increase in enquiries and her business is thriving.

As part of a rebrand for Corrigans Original, I was approached to redesign their website.  Working with the beautiful illustrations by the artist Charlotte Day, the initial objective of the website was to build brand awareness and as a B2B sales tool.  As with all of my designs, it's been built on a platform allowing it to grow with the business, so this site has the scope to add an online shop to it in the future.

Launching a new business in a completely new industry takes vision and bravery. It was such a privilege to work in partnership with Gayle at Sunflower Celebrations, who had a very clear brand vision from the outset.  I did a very happy dance when she said at the first creative presentation that I had "nailed the brief, and more".  After launching her business, within a month she had fully booked her Summer wedding calendar.

Emma had outgrown her website in the two years she had been in business, and as a previous photography client of mine, approached me to give her site a complete redesign.  It's great to work on a project that includes a photography brief, as I was able to seamlessly bring the photographic style and website design together to create a strong brand image.  In our latest catch up, Emma informed she is expanding her clinic as her business is thriving.
