Client testimonials

  • “Hire this lovely person to build your website! Nic very quickly felt like a totally safe pair of hands; knowing Squarespace inside out and understanding my brand right away. For photographers looking for website design, Nic instinctively understands our needs and how our images need to stand out on the page. She has a handle on the big picture and all the little details too. I loved how much she cared about every aspect of the site and how she could tell at a glance if something wasn’t right. The collaboration worked brilliantly; I felt confident working with the new site quickly, but didn’t mess anything up in the early stages. Working with Nic was a joy; a design and branding genius who is knowledgeable, professional, conscientious, on top of everything and fun to work with too. She cared about my website just as much - if not more - than I did. I finally have an updated website which is a huge thing to cross off my to do list. It looks and feels like my brand and I couldn’t be happier. Thank you!!!”

  • “Honestly Nic, I've had so many logos and branding designed over the years and I'm a nightmare. You've nailed it first time!”

  • “It’s been such a pleasure to work with Nic. Nic really took the time to chat to me and understand my style of photography and what I was looking for before designing a logo and new visual brand identity for me. I’m so happy with the final product, which is adaptable and easy to apply across all of my assets and was very affordable too. It has given my website and associated materials the edge they needed in order to look that bit more fresh and contemporary. I’d highly recommend Nic as a designer for anyone looking for a new visual brand identity.”

  • “I started my business in 2016, bodymapping ltd. I offer health coaching, lifestyle advice with novel blood testing and analysis to clients who spend between £600 - £1,000 per year. Communicating and selling this unique product to a very discerning client group has been a real challenge. Often you only get one opportunity to pitch your vision and dream to your clients, so having a website that does this reliably is key to the success of ones venture. Nic took a lot of time to understand the message that I was trying to convey and took it all on board with ease, she translated this into tangable design, with great branding, font, website colour palate, copy and images. I can’t thank her enough and she is always on standby to help as I make multiple tweaks and adjustments to the website on a monthly if not weekly basis. Thanks so much Nic.”
