About.
I graduated in 2004 with a First BA Hons in Advertising and have worked as a designer for over 15 years across print, digital and web for a variety of companies.
I’m passionate about design and have built up my skills from a very young age. I have a great eye for detail and I am equally as at home with a pencil as I am with a Mac or creating a headline for an ad.
When I’m not designing I love spending time with my family, taking photos, playing guitar and keeping fit..but not all at once!
Website Design.
The platform I work in to create my clients’ websites is called Squarespace. This is an all-in-one web design platform and content management system (CMS) used to build and host beautiful websites with blogs, online shops and portfolios for businesses of all sizes. Being a CMS means you can create, modify and manage your content.
I have worked in Squarespace for several years and being a Squarespace Circle Member means I can offer clients some great benefits, these include:
20% off the first payment of new annual website subscriptions.
When you work with a Squarespace web designer with a Circle membership, you receive 20% off your first year on the platform. Your web designer must start the website trial in order for this to activate.
Extended site trial periods.
The usual trial site period when you create a website in Squarespace is 2 weeks but with Circle membership this becomes 6 months meaning your website isn’t rushed and you’re not having to pay subscription fees before it is even live.
20% off your first annual Scheduling subscription.
Squarespace Scheduling is the easiest way to manage appointments on your website. The scheduling software integrates seamlessly into your Squarespace website. You will also receive 20% off your annual subscription to Email campaigns.
If you have any further questions about how I can help you build your perfect website, drop me a message and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can.
Web Design Process.
-
You choose the package which best suits your business and budget.
-
We have a chat via email or phone to discuss your needs, plus any initial ideas you have.
-
I create a number of logo designs depending on which package you have selected (whilst listening to my favourite Spotify playlists!)
-
The first stage of logo designs are sent across for you to look at.
-
This could be a font change, tweaking any icons, trying out different colourways etc.
-
Amends are carried out. This stage usually involves an element of back-and-to’ing.
-
Once you are happy with the logo design, I then create web and print versions and send across in a ZIP file for you to keep.
-
The logo process is complete and an invoice is sent across.
