The Birth of a Vision: How We Work Together
My strength is in helping you express yourself visually — with clarity, impact and style.
The design process I facilitate is the birthing of a vision that best suits your unique situation, your specific needs and your desired outcome. Through our creative dialog, I will help you develop authentic visual communication that’s tailored just for you.
Each new job begins with a free 30-minute consultation. This is an opportunity for us to meet face-to-face (or over the phone or Skype) and determine if we’re the right match for working together. It is very important that you feel comfortable and resonate with the kind of work I offer.
Following is a list of services I provide. Please contact me with questions, or to schedule an appointment. 503-780-6118.
Consultation
I specialize in in-depth visioning work for individuals and companies. I offer assistance in developing focused strategies to launch a new business, service or product.
As our environment constantly changes, we need to keep reinventing ourselves and transform stagnant habits into fresh, creative flow. I draw from my experience in working with clients over many years, providing branding, marketing and spiritual counseling. I use my expertise and intuitive abilities to inspire your own intuitive vision, which is essential for your own happiness and success.
A typical session includes:
- Visioning — a discussion about your values, talents, intent and desired outcomes
- Discussion about your services or products (existing or desired)
- Strategy approach for manifesting your intent
- An outline of specific steps or items needed for manifesting your goals
Consultation sessions are $150/hour.
Branding+Identity Design
More alchemy than simply a logo design, successful branding embodies a lasting visual identity that instantly communicates your unique presence in the marketplace.
It's very important to invest into your branding for three main reasons:
- The commitment you make energizes and propels your business and leads to your success
- You save time and money in the long run because you don’t have to redo it later
- Branding identity penetrates the collective consciousness over time. Changing your brand identity too often is therefore undesirable and can be counterproductive
The Branding Package includes: in-depth consultation (see the “Consultation” section above), logo design and guidelines, typography, color palette, and application to business cards and stationary. As added value, I offer Web design and programming at a discounted rate when ordered with the Branding Package.
Web Design+Programming
High-quality, standards-compliant custom Web design with HTML programming includes custom features determined by you. Template-based site design (WordPress) is also available.
I request the client provides all content (text and images) in electronic form. You may request stock images or images created by me.
If you already have a working relationship with a Web developer and choose to have me design your site without programming, I’ll deliver Web-ready design elements to your developer.
Advertising
As a Creative Director, I’ve developed a number of successful advertising campaigns for magazines, newspapers and the Internet. My long-lasting working relationship with professional photographers and illustrators will guarantee the effectiveness of your ad.
Book Design
Book design+production includes: cover design (front, back and spine), interior page design, typesetting, and printing production for self-publishing authors. I request that all the book components are delivered electronically (e-mail or CD), professionally proofread and all images are in the best possible quality.
Packaging
Packaging Design includes any product that needs to be wrapped or boxed: DVDs, CDs, cosmetics, electronics, supplies, household items, toys, etc. I can also create a label or a tag for unboxed items.
Film+Multimedia
Film clips increasingly dominate the Internet and video has become an effective tool for mass communication. As a visual medium, video, combined with music and storytelling, speaks to our emotions more effectively than any of these disciplines alone. I encourage my clients to include short video clips on their Web sites as a fresh and fun way to quickly reach the widest possible audience.
