Love Dots: Meant to be

Check out Pam from Pamela G Photography with new branding set from the Love Dots templates! So cute, a perfect match. I love how she incorporated the heart graphic into her "o" on the business card. Thanks for sharing Pam!

Branding Package : Forever After Images

In addition to the logo I created for Rosie at Forever After Images, I also worked on her blog header template, letterhead, trifold brochure and an 8 page PDF menu detailing wedding packages including a booking form and welcome letter. Check out her subtle and sophisticated look below.

Mail Call

I was SO excited to get my mail today. For two reasons actually. First, I've been waiting for some document boxes I ordered from See Jane Work. I got a bunch of each style: art, letter, file & magazine holder in "grass" from the office basics line. The color is fantastically bright green and I can't wait until I move into my new apartment and can put them to good use!

But the really great treat in today's mail was a package from Elizabeth McCormick - with samples of all her new branding materials. Take a peak...doesn't everything look just gorgeous! (and yes, that is one of my new green boxes).



If I've designed something for you and you've gotten it printed I would LOVE a hardcopy for my portfolio - just email me for my address.

Email Issues

It has come to my attention that some incoming emails are going missing. I have no idea why this is happening, but I can assure you, it is frustrating! PLEASE, if you use my contact page or email me and do not have a reply within 24 hours, please re-email me! I am normally good about getting back to people - but I can't respond to an email I don't see!

Thanks :)

Kit n Caboodle : Elizabeth McCormick Photography

It's the greatest feeling when I finish one of these sets! This is Elizabeth's new complete branding package for Elizabeth McCormick Photography

The Kit n Caboodle package I offer comes with the works: Logo, Business Card, Letterhead, Trifold Brochure, Notecard, and Envelope. In this set, I also designed an extra 5x5 insert for Elizabeth to use along with her trifold, (perfect for information you don't need to hand out to everyone, that changes frequently, or if you need just a bit more room).

Elizabeth's new set uses punches of cool greens and blues alongside a crisp white. Clean & Simple at its best.

Thanks Liz!

Logo and Letterhead : Gina Geigley Photography

I've worked with Gina of Gina Geigley Photography before, and with her move to a new market on a new coast, she was ready for a new look. Gina had her heart set on using orange, and what we've come up with reflects the warm vibrancy of SoCal. Thanks Gina!

Logo: A.W. Photography

Introducing a logo for Anslee at A.W. Photography. I just love the soft colors in her logo, I'm so used to designing with brights, this was a welcome change :) I also designed an abbreviated logo, perfect for use in constricting spaces like web templates or pens.

Thanks Anslee

Mini Marketing Sets | Coming Soon

My most popular custom design commissions beyond logos are business cards and letterhead, and so the mini marketing set delivers just that! Mini set includes a letterhead design, and a double sided business card design - perfect for maintaining a consistent look across the collateral you will use most!

More designs on the way - and I may be able to offer an "expansion pack" with a trifold, and notecard depending on time and interest ;)

On a roll now...

Another look completed in 2008 - introducing a logo for Carol Sullivan Photography. Carol wanted to bring some fun color into her logo, polka dots, and mimic traditional photo filters. I'd say we accomplished that!

A New Logo for Pattison Photography

Launching a new logo for Bob and Tricia at Pattison Photography - I love the new color scheme they are going with, can't wait to see their updated site :)

A Couple of New logos

Been hard at work lately finalizing some new logos. Launching a new logo for Lisa at Mashak Imaging and for Donna at Exposures of Life.

Thanks ladies!

New Logo for Angie

I created this new look for Angie over at Simplicity Photography. The scroll frame was inspired by a new victorian-esque pendent I recently bought. Just goes to show you there is inspiration in the everyday!

Coming soon | Toppings

I am working on a few sets of "toppings" to add to the Asuka Vanilla templates (or any other projects you want to dress up like storyboards, cards, or blends). Simple color washes, understated dots and petite stripes make up this collection to add just that simple something to any project. Just drag and drop the patterned backgrounds onto your canvas and go! Below is a sneak peek of one collection used on an Asuka Vanilla template. And depending on how adventurous I get, there might be simple phrase brushes or pngs included as well :)

Stay tuned for more info :)

New store in the works

I'm working on installing an online shop for all my products so that you can pay online and download your products right then and there. Its been in the works for awhile now, just haven't had the time to sit down and customize it. It is on my (very long) to do list though! Won't that be cool?

New Logo for Melissa

Launching a new logo for Melissa Stephens Photography, I love how elegant it is! and swirls are *so* trendy right now! So many times my clients want bright or fun colors in their logo, and its nice to get back to classic, simple, grey.

Jill Beamer | Logo

Introducing a logo for Jill Beamer Photography. I'm lovin' it. Simple, colorful, and modern. Thanks Jill!
