business + school services

While creating your own brochures and postcards may have seemed like the fastest and most cost-effective option when you first started your business, continuing to do so could hamper your business. Market research shows prospective customers form an opinion about a business within the first few seconds and appearance of your marketing collateral has the greatest impact on which this opinion is formed. Having your marketing collateral prepared by a professional graphics designer will leave a lasting first impression, as well as generate more leads for your growing business.

I offer a complete range of professional, affordable graphic design services — from print design such as brochures, flyers, business cards and postcards to logo, banner ads and presentation designs, as well as everything in between.

Maybe you want to capture your wedding day on video, but hiring a professional videographer isn't in your budget. I hear ya - I've been in that boat! Hiring a professional videography service typically costs over $1,000, which is for a short video capturing the ceremony and the first dance at your reception. This cost will rapidly increase with add-ons and extras. Your video service will be over $2,000 before you know it!

Because my personal costs are low, I'm able to offer couples a more-than-reasonable videography service. I'll be honest — don't have a big, fancy camera, or a crew of camera men, but my graphic design skills and training give me the artistic ability, a creative edge, and the determination to create a fantastic wedding video at an attractive price. You'll chersh your wedding day video for years!

• I edit all of your video footage. From ceremony to the reception, all of your footage is edited and music is added.
• All packages come with 2 DVD copies in customized cases. Additional copies can be ordered for a small fee.

Customized packages can be arranged to meet your specific needs, but just to give you an idea, here are some general prices:

A photo slideshow is the perfect thing to play at your wedding reception or graduation party! It’s a great way to display the life of the guest or guests of honor.

Whatever the event may be, a photo slideshow is a memorable presentation your guests will love.
