Calm writing and journalling

Who I Work With

Who do you design websites for?

I design calm, intentional websites for women-led businesses rooted in faith and modesty. If your work is visual, thoughtful, and led by intention and clarity, you'll feel at home here.

Do you work with new businesses or only established studios?

Both. What matters most is that you're ready to show your work clearly. As long as you have a clear aesthetic and a small body of work to showcase, we can build from there — whether you're launching your first website or rebuilding an existing one.

Do you work with clients outside the UK?

Yes. I work with studios internationally and everything is handled 100% online and asynchronous via The Studio Desk (our studio portal) — no calls and no off-desk threads. It's calm, clear, and works beautifully across time zones.

Services & Process

What's the difference between The Launch Website and The Signature Website?

The Launch Website (£2,500) is a calm 6–8 page website built from scratch. It's perfect for founders who need a simple, strong online presence — with essential pages, mobile-first design, Keystatic CMS, and 4 weeks of post-launch support.

The Signature Website (£3,800) is a more detailed build for established offers and stronger trust-building. It includes everything in Launch, plus deeper page structure, clearer content pathways, and a more refined editorial experience for studios with multiple services or more content.

From there, The Collection Website (£6,000) holds layered content for brands with case studies, journals, or richer systems. The Studio Website Build (from £8,500) is for fully custom builds with e-commerce, multi-language, or advanced integrations.

How long does a website project take?

Most custom projects take 6–10 weeks from enquiry to launch, depending on scope and how ready your content and imagery are. The process is intentionally paced — calm, clear, and never rushed. Once I review your enquiry, I'll confirm a timeline that feels realistic.

What do you need from me before we start?

A clear understanding of your services, access to your content, and professional photography where possible. I guide you through each step with clear briefings and simple checklists.

Can I see examples of your work?

Yes — selected projects are available in the portfolio section of this website, including case studies with project details and client feedback.

How do I know if I'm ready for a custom website?

If your studio has clarity around its services and is ready to invest in a long-term digital foundation, a custom website is usually the right next step. You don't need everything figured out — just a clear aesthetic and a body of work to showcase.

What if I don't have professional photography yet?

We can begin with a content-first structure and refine imagery later. A calm layout should never rely on photography alone — your website will still work beautifully while you build your portfolio.

What do I need to provide?

To keep your project smooth and focused, you'll need:

  • Your core website text (don't worry — I'll guide you with a simple structure)
  • Professional photography of your work (or strong portfolio imagery)
  • Your logo and brand basics (if you have them)

If your branding feels a little unclear, I can support a light visual direction (fonts, colours, simple styling) so your website feels cohesive — without turning it into a full branding project.

Do you write website copy?

I don't offer copywriting as a separate service, but you won't be left staring at a blank page. You'll receive a simple copy structure and prompts for each page, and I'll polish what you provide for clarity, flow, and consistency so everything reads calm and intentional.

If you'd rather work with a specialist copywriter, I can recommend trusted collaborators.

Do you offer branding or logo design?

I don't design logos or full brand identities. If your existing branding needs a little tidying, I can support light brand direction (fonts, colours, and visual consistency) so your website feels calm and consistent. If you need a full brand created from scratch, I'm happy to recommend brand designers I trust.

Investment & Booking

How much does a website cost?

Here's a clear starting point:

  • The Launch Website — £2,500 (up to 8 pages, built from scratch)
  • The Signature Website — £3,800 (deeper structure, stronger trust-building)
  • The Collection Website — £6,000 (layered content, case studies, journal)
  • The Studio Website Build — from £8,500 (fully custom, e-commerce, multi-language)
  • Website Localisation — pricing depends on scope (get in touch)

All packages are delivered fully async via The Studio Desk (our studio portal). No calls. Payment can be spread over 12 months where applicable.

How do I book a project?

Start with the enquiry form. I review each enquiry carefully — fit matters, and I want the process to feel calm and straightforward for both of us. If it's aligned, you'll receive:

  1. a short questionnaire (so I can understand your studio and priorities)
  2. a proposal with scope, timeline, and investment
  3. a booking link to secure your place once you're ready

How far in advance should I enquire?

A good rule of thumb is 4–8 weeks ahead, especially if you have a particular launch date in mind. If you're working towards a press feature, a new studio launch, or a seasonal refresh, it's worth enquiring early.

After Launch

What happens after my website launches?

You'll receive everything you need to feel confident moving forward:

  • a clear handover guide
  • a recorded walkthrough (so you can revisit it anytime)
  • 4 weeks of post-launch support for small questions as you settle in

The goal is for your site to feel calm and manageable — not something you have to tiptoe around.

Do you offer ongoing website support?

Yes — Studio Care is reserved for studios I've worked with, and it's optional. If you'd like continued support after launch, you can choose a plan that suits your pace.
