Working with Ann has been absolutely fantastic. Her attention to detail is impeccable and the quality of her design work exceeded our highest expectations. All deliverables were completed on time or early and she was always available to answer questions or send over new design iterations based on our feedback. We highly recommend working with Ann for any and all design projects.

When it came time to engage a designer for our new brand in the health and beauty category, one name kept coming up over and over. Ann is a consummate professional. I've loved working with her to bring our new brand to market. Ann has been involved in the whole process, from initial concepts through to packaging design, website design and content, print design and photo shoot art direction. Ann's one-of-kind because she truly listens to what you, as a client, are asking for, but at the same time she pushes back and challenges your concepts. The end result being way better than what you hoped to achieve. In addition, her network of contacts is indispensable. Her suggestions for packaging, printing and photography providers were really helpful and have proved integral to the success of our venture.

I have been working with Ann for the last three years and I absolutely love working with her. Ann not only creates beautiful design work, she is the most amazing person to work with, she is a great listener and nails the brief every time. Ann is organised, efficient and very calm which makes working with her such a breeze. Over the past three years Ann has done quarterly campaigns including social media, print and store design. Ann has taken me through a brand refresh, a website design update, and has also organised and directed model shoots for my business. Ann will always give constructive feedback on marketing ideas and has become an integral part of our business. Ann’s design work has had such a positive impact on our business in many ways - I would highly recommend working with her.
