Casi Hall is the talent behind Casi Hall Creative and her new studio imprint, Omie Oh My! She was getting by with an ultra-simple list of buttons linking to the various places where customers could find her artwork. But there was no context about her art and it didn’t give people information about her photography packages. She needed more. I was happy to build her a custom one-page website that would show off her new brand, spotlight her art, and make it easy for people to hire her as their photographer!

When Anne Marie Comaratta came to me for a new website, it was because she was maxxed out on her one-on-one offerings. She needed a way to scale her business beyond face-to-face consulting.

Giving talented woman business owners the website they deserve never gets old!

Young and Wright Architectural is one of the most well-known architecture firms in Western New York—and not just because they’re the biggest Bills fans around.

Done and done!

Since 1980, Picasso’s Pizza has been throwing dough and serving iconic Buffalo-style pizza—you know, the real deal cup-and-char that you can only get here in the 716. They’ve got deep roots in Buffalo and Western New York, and hometown pride is baked into everything they serve. So when their Chief Marketing Officer popped into my inbox to see if I could work with them on a new website ahead of a new promo they’re doing with some Buffalo Bills players this season, I got all excited. Um, yes?!?!

Bridget Schaefer is the talented photographer behind Meccay Photography, a wedding and lifestyle photography studio based in Buffalo and working worldwide. When Bridget came to me hoping for a new website, it was because her old website wasn’t working for her any longer. It was difficult to update, and a cobbled-together portfolio system using a third-party site meant that her SEO was suffering. Are those problems I can solve? Yes and yes. What a pleasure it was to shine a spotlight on all of Bridget’s talent!

Danielle Prester is the talent behind Prester Mental Health Counseling, a licensed mental health counseling practice serving adolescents, adults and families throughout Buffalo and Erie County.

I absolutely love giving women business owners the website they deserve!

Jen Getty is the talent behind Zinnia Transaction Coordination, where she manages all of the minutiae of real estate sales for Real Estate Agents throughout Western New York. Her old website wasn’t working for her any longer. The once-great design now felt cluttered and off-brand. It didn’t convey information about her services as clearly as it could have. And it didn’t pass WCAG checks for accessibility and readability, lowering her position in Google search results. A new website was in order. What a pleasure it was to work with Jen and give her the website she deserves!

Noelle Wiedemer is the talent behind Engaging Museums, a museum consultancy helping local and regional museums with collections management, exhibit research and design, and research into creative funding opportunities.

AMT Jamestown is a leader in advanced manufacturing technology, processes, and systems. In short: They’re the experts who enable success for others. But their website didn’t reflect that. At all. So when their Director of Business Development, reached out to me to build them a new website, I jumped at the chance. I was born and raised in Chautauqua County, and the opportunity to help a hometown business put their best foot forward was one I couldn’t resist.

John’s my crazily talented brother-in-law :) He and his business partner were launching a new training and consulting business that would serve school districts and logistics companies across New York State. They wanted an ultra-simple, one-page website that would showcase their expertise, list their services, and provide a contact form so folks could reach out.

Like so many of my clients, Janice started the web design process with only a few pieces of the puzzle. She had created her own logo, but she didn’t have a formal brand. She didn’t know the fonts or colors that she’d like on her site. She knew what she wanted to say, but had no idea how to get it on paper in a format that would work for a website. She didn’t know what photos would be needed or how, exactly, it would all work out. What did she have? Me! I was in her corner from the get-go. And her project is a great example of how anyone can have a gorgeous website—even if all they have is a vision.

You’ve already seen Dr. Katrina Fulcher-Rood in my portfolio! She’s a speech language pathologist and the CEO at The Big Picture SLP.

Done, done, and done. What a pleasure it was to give Jaclyn the website she deserves!

It was imperative that her website look its absolute best!
