Things I expected to do today:
✔️ Run 11km
✔️ Have a chai with my boys

Things I did not expect to do today:
❌ Become a Windows recovery specialist

This morning my Dell greeted me with:
"Your device couldn't be repaired."

Which is not the sort of feedback a designer wants before opening client files.

Thankfully, after a few deep breaths, some expert assistance, and a considerable amount of faith, the laptop decided it would, in fact, like to continue living.

A gentle reminder that behind every polished brand, social media post and logo is a real human being trying to keep all the plates spinning while life does its thing.

Today's score:
🏃‍♀️ 11km run completed
☕ Chais consumed
👦 Boys entertained
💻 Dell rescued

I was so honoured to once again be asked to assist with the logo design and branding elements for the Selborne Moms & Lads Breakfast. 🤍

As a mom of two boys at Selborne Primary myself, projects like these hold such a special place in my heart. Being able to contribute creatively to moments and memories that families will look back on for years to come is something I never take lightly.

From the logo design and signage to the smaller branding details woven throughout the event, this project was all about creating a warm and memorable experience from beginning to end.

One last table. One proud moment. ✨

Somewhere between chai lattes, half-finished concepts, colour palettes, voice notes, deadlines and “just one more tweak”… the magic happens. ☕✨

Design has never just been about making things look pretty for me. It’s about creating brands that feel something. Brands with personality, warmth, strategy and soul.

And honestly? I wouldn’t trade the creative chaos for anything.

There’s something incredibly satisfying about seeing a brand come to life beyond just a logo. 🚚✨

For Snack Attack Vending, the goal was to create a playful but polished identity that felt bold, memorable and instantly recognisable on the road. From the logo design and stationery to the vehicle branding, every detail was designed to work together as one cohesive brand experience.

And honestly… adding the little branded vans to this flat lay might be one of my favourite presentation touches yet. 😍

Branding is never just about “making things look nice”, it’s about creating a visual identity people remember.

Crave. Crunch. Munch.

A little behind the scenes of some of the social media handling I do for SMB Traders ✦

From creating content and keeping the branding consistent, to helping the page stay active, engaging and recognisable, there’s always something happening behind the screen. 🚘

I absolutely love working on brands with strong personality, and SMB Traders has such a bold, energetic identity that makes creating content for them genuinely fun. I hope, as the viewer, you also enjoy some of the relatability, humour and lighter moments woven into the posts along the way. 🤍

Social media should never feel cold or forced, it should feel like an extension of the brand itself. 🤍

Strong branding isn’t built in a single post, it’s built through consistency over time. ✦

From colour palettes and typography to tone, imagery and layout, the small details are what shape how people recognise and remember a brand.

Because when everything starts speaking the same visual language, brands begin to feel intentional, trustworthy and memorable. 🤍

Design has the power to do more than simply look beautiful, it can tell stories, communicate impact, and help meaningful organisations connect with the people who support their mission. ✦

Proud to have designed the latest Impact Report for SmartAID, bringing together editorial layout, visual storytelling and strategic design to showcase the incredible global work being done through innovation, humanitarian response and sustainable impact initiatives.

Projects like these are a reminder that thoughtful design can help important stories reach further. 🤍

The strongest brands aren’t the ones constantly trying to sell, they’re the ones that create a connection. ✦

Thoughtful branding should feel natural, intentional and human. From the visuals to the tone of voice, every detail plays a role in how people experience your business online.

Because at the heart of every memorable brand is a conversation people actually want to be part of
