Love from clients

“We loved the whole experience working with Caitlin. We really needed help to design and develop a website that could grow with our business. We didn’t have the time required to grow our flowers and website and Caitlin helped so much. She took everything we said and brought it to life. We are so happy about the sales we’ve been able to drive. It’s worth the investment in your business to hire someone with such an eye for design and detail. We can’t say enough good things.”

“Caitlin is incredibly creative and talented. She really brought our vision to life and did a great job of integrating the feedback of multiple team members. We could not be happier with the assets we received and the customized guide to help us know how to use the assets. I would recommend her highly!”

“Upon the first meeting, I felt like Caitlin was really hearing what I wanted to accomplish with branding. With my branding, she incorporated my story and passions into one beautiful logo. Once complete, she seamlessly integrated the branding into my website design. Now instead of cringing when I think of my DIY website, I feel comfort and pride sharing my company info with others!"

Working with Caitlin on The Cake Edit Studio's branding was one of the best decisions I've made for my business. From the hand-drawn floral illustration to the color palette and typography, every detail felt intentional and completely true to the vision I had in my head, honestly, better than I could have imagined. She took something I struggled to put into words and turned it into a brand identity that I'm genuinely proud to put on everything. If you're a creative small business owner looking for someone who truly gets it, she's your girl.

our business has ever made. We felt heard and taken care of
throughout the whole design process. The final deliverables
went beyond any expectation we had and were tailored exactly
to our brand. Caitlin is thoughtful and kind and her work is top
tier, especially her illustrations. It was worth every penny!"
