Where creativity meets the practical.

Whatever it is, the way you tell your story can make all the difference.

The Big Stuff

You need a website. You’ve got options.

The DIY - $400+

You’re in need of a website—and a budget. You have the time to do your website yourself, but you need a starting point. Enter, DIY Templates. These templates are customized with you in mind and designed to stand out, and here’s a little secret: I actually custom-make these templates for each person so no two websites are exactly the same. After we discuss what you need, I custom-make your template and download it to your Squarespace account, and leave you to do the rest. BTW: if a template has customized code, don’t worry, you get free edits for life.

The Co-Style - $800+

You really, really need a website, but you’re just not about that #webdesignlife. Plus, you’ve got a budget that supports someone else doing the tech-savvy stuff. Introducing: The Co-Style. Co-styling is just a fancy way of saying you get to do the fun stuff, like filling out a short questionnaire that asks you about things like your favorite music and brunch food (seriously), and voilà, you’ve got your very own customized website, no sweat equity required. Even better: co-styling is a budget-friendly option and has payment plans available.

The Restyle - $2000+

Some say high-maintenance, we say detail-oriented. You know what you want, and you’re ready for the website that matches your vision—exactly. You’re ready for the fun stuff (you still get to fill out the music-and-brunch questionnaire, don’t worry), but you’re also highly motivated to work one-on-one with a designer who will be just as fussy about getting your website to absolute perfection—minus the actual fussiness. Plus, you’re at a place where you’re ready to invest in a website that will last you a lifetime—just like your business.

The Small Things

It’s all in the details.

Copywriting - $300

Some of us love playing games like Words With Friends, and some us hated every essay we ever had to write. Every good business needs the right words to spark that first conversation—which is why it’s so important your website has all the words that matter. Whether you’re DIYing, Co-Styling, or Restyling, a copywriting add-on helps keep things headache free. With over a decade of professional experience copywriting, ghostwriting, blog writing, and editing, we’ll find the story that fits you and your business—no essays required.

Branding Photography - $189

Ever wonder about that person you follow on Instagram who has the best pictures? Chances are, they’ve invested in branding photography. Branding photography is a niche that’s all about expressing yourself through photos—in a polished, professional way. Your style might be flirty and fun or minimalist and modern, but either way, you need clear, professional images that best represent you + your business. Each session is 45-60 minutes long, and includes help with wardrobe choices and makeup touchups.

*Serving the Greater Sacramento and Bay Area. Additional travel fee required for destinations outside of these areas.

Custom Branding Kit - $129

The hardest part of design is starting: getting photos for social media and your website, picking colors, understanding what style is going to best reflect your business, and having a plan. Having a customized branding kit is your compass: when the going gets tough and you’re feeling a little lost, you can always come back to your kit for materials and inspiration. Each kit includes a storyboard that encompasses your overall brand, with a custom logo, hand-picked colors, and a font kit. You’ll also get an Unsplash collection of 45 free-to-use images that are tailored just for you. Finally, you get an easy-to-edit customized social media template that you can use across all channels.

Hourly - $89

Maybe you’re stuck on that one edit that you can’t quite figure out, or you’d like some custom code added to your website. Maybe you’re looking for a refresh on your business card design, or you need a new Instagram post template. Whatever it is, if it’s design related, we’ve got your back.
