It's always exciting to work with a client on a new business launch. With Ruth it was the launch of her Belgium waffle business Flour & Rise. 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.

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. The plan is to add an online shop to it in the future.

After seeing the website that I designed for Pins & Pleats, Sharene got in touch asking for a redesign of her website she first set up when she launched her business. Now 5 years old it no longer reflected her brand. After a rebrand, I worked with Sharene on the site photography as well as the new design and launch. Sharene has reported that the new site has led to an increase in enquiries and she's been attracting her ideal clients.

Michelle runs The Surrey Studio and had been selling her handmade stationary & gifts through Etsy. She wanted to elevate her brand and start to sell directly. I worked with her to create her brand identity, develop a stock of product photography, and bring her beautiful brand to life in an online store.

A simple, clean and elegant 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 increase in newborn & baby enquiries.

My websites start from £350. However it really depends on what kind of website you need. I am very happy to chat and give you a guide price.
How much do you charge for a website?
Hosting is included on the development platforms that I use making it very easy for you to manage everything in one place and with one account.
Do I need to arrange hosting?
Definitely. I do a basic level of SEO on your site to ensure it will deliver against your keywords, and also ensure you are set up in Google Analytics and Google Search Console.
Do you do SEO for my website when you build it?
I would allow approximately 6 weeks from kicking off the brief to launching your site. It is partly dependent on the time spent at the feedback and approval stage.
How long does it take to build a website?
Absolutely! I only work on platforms that allow clients to easily update as needed. I will give you all the training to be able to make website amendments and also offer an annual or ad-hoc website maintenance service.
Can I update the website myself once it’s been built?
There are lots of providers like Godaddy where you can buy your domain name. I sort out all the rest and arrange the domain name mapping.
