“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!!!”
