If you’re here, chances are your DIY website got you this far — and you’re proud of that (as you should be). But you’re also starting to feel… stuck. You’ve grown, your work has grown, and your website? It’s still wearing 2019 energy. You’re craving something more aligned, more elevated — something that actually reflects […]

Typically, I’d wrap up the year by sharing a “2024 Wrapped” post, showcasing all the logos and brands I’ve worked on. But this year? It’s been different. Very different. It’s been a year of introspection, rediscovery, and redefining what success looks like to me—not just as a business owner but as a person. Here are […]

1. Maximalism Is Everywhere Maximalism isn’t just for fashion and interior design anymore—it’s officially a website trend, too. On Showit sites, this means bigger, bolder headings, decorative fonts, vibrant color palettes, and larger body text.

Now, let’s delve into Honeybook. I understand that, initially, its pricing may seem daunting, but believe me, it’s a genuine […]

If you’re not careful, imposter syndrome can keep you stuck. In the same place. For a long time.  I’ve spent ten years fighting this ugly monster. When I started designing in 2012, I had never taken a design course in my life. I have a degree in photography and art history, so everything I know […]

Hey, I’m Christina, a Showit website designer for photographers and creative entrepreneurs! Before I ever launched The Buffalo Collective or sold over 1500 templates, I was a wedding photographer myself—struggling to find a website that actually worked for me. That journey led me to Showit, and eventually, to a career designing strategic websites that help […]

Yep, I’ve been made fun of for being the quiet business owner. The one that doesn’t like a lot of attention and doesn’t like to speak in front of large groups of people. And do you know what? That’s FINE. It’s taken me a few years to fully embrace who I am as a entrepreneur, […]
