Design a website that truly welcomes your people in (you’ll be obsessed, and they will too.)
Custom website and blog
You know firsthand that design and photography both have the ability to evoke emotion through an image, build connection, and tell a story. That's what we're here to do for you, through a fully custom, from scratch website. We recommend this package for those that have been in business for 5+ years.
Here's what's included...
Payment plans are available. We typically book out about a month in advance, and the process involves a bit of homework on your end, so it’s best to book early!
5 custom designed Showit pages
Blog design (and all corresponding pages)
Copy editing
Fully responsive mobile site
Basic SEO optimization
Domain configuration
Social media launch graphics
Showit video tutorial
Wordpress video tutorial
Exclusive pricing for future updates
This package is a good fit for you if...
You have lots of products, custom services, or need a completely different layout than our templates have
You'd rather hand over the reins to a professional, than do it yourself and leave money on the table
Your DIY website is holding you back from charging the prices your work deserves
01
Fill out our contact form, book a discovery call, and get on our calendar! We'll also want to do an onboarding call - this helps us learn more about your business, which allows us make design decisions that align with your goals and values.
02
We’ll send over some homework. This allows us to gather everything we'll need (copy, images, content, fonts, logos, etc) prior to your scheduled start date, so when that date comes, we can move forward full steam ahead. The homework will be due the Friday before your start date.
03
On day one, we'll lay the foundations. We'll get your colors, fonts, logos, and images uploaded and in place in your account. Then we'll start building the framework for the site.
04
For the next few weeks we'll be in building mode. We'll check in with you a few times each week with Loom videos. We might need some feedback from you, but other than that, you can sit back and relax!
05
At the end of week 4 we'll work on final revisions. We don't limit the revisions on our custom package (please keep it reasonable though 😂), because we want you to truly be happy with the finished product.
06
The home stretch! We'll spend the final week tidying up the last few pages, optimizing SEO, and creating 8-10 launch graphics for you to use on social media to promote your big launch!
07
We'll check in a few weeks later to see how things are going, how your site is performing, and to see if there's any additional work you need done!

Frequently Asked Questions
template customization
We perform basic SEO optimization on your website, including keywords, h1 tags, page titles, and meta descriptions. We’ll also help walk you through some tips for naming your images and writing your content for optimal SEO. If you’re interested in an additional boost we have a list of SEO experts we can refer you to for top-tier expertise!
The homework will need to be completed and submitted the Friday before your start date, or ideally sooner than that. We charge an additional $250 fee for projects that are delayed due to late homework - this will throw your entire project off schedule.
Yes! We require a 25% deposit to book the date to work, 25% the day before your scheduled start date, and the remaining 50% upon completion of the project. The balance must be paid in full before the final designs are delivered. Please keep in mind that we have strict late fees for homework/feedback that isn't on time, because this throws off your entire project timeline - so plan carefully if you book during your busy season!
Yes! Once we finish up, the site is all yours to update as often as you like. We provide you with personalized Showit and Wordpress tutorials that should cover any basic updates (text, images, etc) and Showit has an extensive collection of tutorials and help articles. Additionally, Showit has an amazing support team that can help with any issues, and we're always available to answer questions as well! We're here to help!
We typically work with wedding photographers, but not exclusively. We've also done brands and websites for interior designers, wedding planners, coaches, business managers, and family/lifestyle photographers. Please don't hesitate to reach out - we very rarely say no, and even if we're not the best fit for your industry, we can point you in the direction of someone who is!
We normally have a 1 month wait list. Our design process includes a four part homework assignment that's due on the project start date, so the further in advance you inquire and book, the better! Once you select a date, sign the contract, and pay the deposit, you're officially on the schedule!
Start the process by filling out the form, and you’ll hear back from me in 1-2 business days with availability and a link to book a discovery call to talk about your big dreams for your new brand and website.
