A long-term client who I've worked with on photography assets for several years, I was delighted when they approached me to re-design their website. They are leaders in their field, and their online presence didn't reflect this. Now they have a website that reflects their brand vision, and will support their big expansion plans.
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!
Menobelly was founded by Birgitta Beavis, an experienced nutritionist and health coach, looking to provide solutions for midlife wellness and menopause weight management. The brief was for a modern, stylish, and clean design, with the seamless integration of e-commerce functionality. It was built in Showit, and we integrated with Shopify, and Mailchimp.
Dr Clare Grace is one of the UK's leading dietitian who has been working in the industry for over 30 years and approached us to launch her new business venture specialising in weight management for menopausal women. We developed a fresh, feminine and elegant branding and a library of photography, that came together in a beautiful, informative website.
A female founded drinks PR agency, working with some of the leading brands in the wine and spirits industry, Spritz celebrated ten years in business with a full rebrand and new website launch. I was so proud to be part of this business milestone.
Isabel had been in business for almost ten years, and was relaunching her business to incorporate more holistic health services. She wanted to retain the established branding, but create a more polished and professional look and a website that worked harder to acquire clients on Google.
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.
An elegant, minimalist 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.
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.
It’s been such a joy to work with Vanessa. She made the process of creating a website so very easy, and taken away many headaches. Her patience, creativity and all round great business sense, really are a credit to her. Her marketing acumen alongside your website design flair has helped me to create a distinctive brand in a crowded market.
I have enjoyed working with Vanessa enormously - it was a great collaboration.
Working with Vanessa to design my website and take my brand photographs has been fantastic. She's professional, down-to-earth and thankfully had a much better understanding of what I wanted than I did! She took my descriptions of what I was looking for and turned them into reality. I'm delighted with her work and wouldn't hesitate to recommend working with her.
I really enjoyed working with Vanessa. Her personal style and ways of working were patient and pragmatic and she was always keen to ensure I was happy with both how we worked together and the overall progress of her work. My business is now thriving and I thoroughly recommend her.
Vanessa is brilliant. From start to finish she was supportive, professional and incredibly knowledgeable. Vanessa helped me bring my small business to life. I am absolutely delighted with my website and forever grateful at how successful it has been.
Right from the beginning of my enquiry, Vanessa understood my vision, was open to my ideas, and really rose to the challenge. The overall design, look and feel of the website I had envisaged in my mind, was exactly what was delivered and I couldn't be happier! And on top of all of this Vanessa has been a pleasure to work with. I would really recommend her to anyone.

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.

I 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.
Absolutely! I only work on platforms that allow clients to easily update as needed. If requested, I will provide training so you can to make website amendments and I also offer a monthly or ad-hoc website maintenance service.
