about Ellie creative

I work with photographers and small business owners who want their brand to feel elevated, confident, and unmistakably premium.

I don’t believe good design is about trends or aesthetics alone. It’s about clarity, positioning, and building a brand that attracts the right clients before you ever get on a call. The kind of brand that justifies higher pricing, builds trust instantly, and makes your business feel established instead of interchangeable.


My process is strategic and intentional. I start by understanding your business goals, your audience, and where your brand is falling short. From there, I design branding and websites that feel cohesive, confident, and aligned with where you’re going, not just where you are now.


Ellie Creative is for business owners who see branding as a business investment, not just another expense. The ones who are ready for a brand that reflects the quality of their work, attracts premium clients, and supports the next stage of growth.


I grew up in a small town with parents in public safety and healthcare, where hard work, showing up, and doing things right were simply expected. That mindset has shaped the way I run my business today. I believe great design should be thoughtful, strategic, and built to help your business grow.

Since launching Ellie Creative, I've partnered with a couple of businesses to create strategic brands and websites that help them stand out in competitive markets. Every project is built around understanding your business, your goals, and the people you want to reach, because beautiful design only works when it supports real growth.

Branding became the perfect combination of creativity and strategy for me. I love taking the ideas, passion, and expertise behind a business and turning them into a brand that feels polished, memorable, and completely aligned with where it's headed.

Nothing is more rewarding than seeing a client feel genuinely confident in how their business is presented. My goal is to create brands and websites that not only look beautiful but help you attract the kind of clients you've been working toward.

When I'm away from my computer, you'll usually find me spending time with my cats, Maddie and Goose, flying with my boyfriend, camping, taking photos, tasting new wines, or exploring somewhere outdoors. I'm also powered almost entirely by coffee and tea, and I'll never say no to a cozy night with family, friends, and a good binge worthy show.
