Brand Identity for a Charleston, SC coffee roasting company
Feminine brand identity for a local lifestyle photographer in Fort Mill, South Carolina
elegant bespoke brand identity and logos for a wedding planner

let’s tell your story.

  • Branding is beyond the logo. Your business deserves an identity to showcase personality, values, and offerings.

  • Put that brand into use! Visualize your brand on biz cards, letterheads, stationery, you name it!

  • First impressions count. Custom social media graphics from flyers, carousels, reel covers, and highlight covers! Upgrade your visual presence!

    • Web Design

    • Brand Photography

    • Brand Packaging

    • Event Materials/Stationery

I believe branding should have personality and be authentic to attract your audience and spark real connection. You’re ready to share your story, and I’m ready to design it! We’ll be besties by the end of it!

I intentionally seek out the conventional yet overlooked moments that spark connection and purpose. What can I say? I like connecting people with people. Fueled by my love for color and florals (+ coffee, of course), I love to dance with the idea of playfulness and practicality. I am always leaping for the chance to travel, run through flower fields, and find good eats.

it’s not everyday you get to design your big sister’s wedding🤍 reminiscing on P+C’s wedding from last year. never got around to sharing since life got so busy (it’s still busy😂). I love how classy it was with the neutrals
it’s not everyday you get to design your big sister’s wedding🤍 reminiscing on P+C’s wedding from last year. never got around to sharing since life got so busy (it’s still busy😂). I love how classy it was with the neutrals and letting the subtle elements speak for themselves. from the pearlescent paper to the custom arch, everything was intentionally designed and brought into the day-of items. I digitally painted their pup as a special touch to the entire suite. I think it has to be my favorite part🥰 #weddingstationery #wedding #weddinginvitations #weddinginvites #invitations #stationery #graphicdesign #graphicdesigner #branddesigner #branding #charlottenc

my heart hurts seeing the damage, loss of life, and sadness in Western NC. the NC mountains has always been a go-to area for me to hide and refresh for a weekend. I’m so sad to see all my favorite spots and businesses washed away. consider donating supplies, money, time, or resources to help the people of WNC and restore their homes. in my bio are links to resources and organizations who are actively involved in helping WNC. GoFundMe links for families and businesses are also in my LinkTree. let’s support them in any way possible! the time to do so is now 🤍 - many businesses in the CLT/FM area are donation drop-off points for supplies. I can provide a list for you if you need one! feel free to DM me or comment additional links and resources. I’m always happy to share! #supportwnc #westernnorthcarolina #wnc #hurricanehelene #hurricanehelenerelief #westernc #ashevillenc #blackmountain #montreat
2019 → 2024 it was about time I do myself a favor!😆 this new site has been a labor of love over the last couple months. as I grow my business, I needed to set a strong foundation for clients to find information and know my brand. I’m always tweaking little things (perfectionist in me), but what do you think of this transformation?!✨ - - - - - #graphicdesigner #graphicdesign #squarespace #squarespacedesign #website #websitesdesign #webdesign #webdesigner #newwebsite #branddesign #branddesigner #designinspo #femininedesign #elegantdesign #trendingaudio #transformation #redesign

✧ JR Captures has a new look! ✧ Jared and Rob reached out the beginning of this year about a potential rebrand. With their wedding photography and videography business picking up, their main focus was on their current clients. We revisited the rebrand idea, and I’m so happy we did because I LOVE how it all turned out! 🤗 We wanted the visuals to be modern and refined with very intentional details. With the color palette, I took colors from their previous branding and mixed it with secondary colors that had personality and warmth. Being in a competitive industry, it’s important to stand out to attract your ideal audience. It was important for me to include pieces of their brand story and their goals as a business. Now, JR Captures has consistent visuals and an identity that speaks to them and their business✨ I’m so obsessed with this rebrand! I hope you love it as much as I do! - - - - - #graphicdesigner #graphicdesign #branddesign #branddesigner #branding #brandidentity #brandpresentation #logo #logodesign #logodesigner #photography #weddingphotography #weddingphotos #weddingphotographer #weddingvideographer #carousel #carouseldesigns #carouselinspo
make a moodboard in 30 seconds🌟 taking special time to make a moodboard will set the tone for the rest of the project! this is how the client and I can nail down our creative direction before any designing takes place. I like to get to know the business and their goals through calls, a questionnaire, and my own research. steps I take to create the perfect moodboard: ✨ research the business and ask about their goals ✒️ have a series of adjectives and mood words that describe the vibe 🌿 collect a variety of photos, including their current brand photos 🤩 narrow down and put it all together! 🤍 find common colors in the imagery, but keeping the brand story in mind stay tuned to see more of this excited project!!👀 - - - - - #graphicdesign #graphicdesigner #brandidentity #branddesigner #branding #logo #logos #logodesign #moodboard #moodboardaesthetic #moodboarddesign #moodboardreel #designreel #graphicdesignreel #trendingaudio #trendingreels #adobe #adobeillustrator

are carousels in or out?? I loveee designing carousels. it’s a fun puzzle to fit all the elements I just designed for a brand into a seamless scroll. carousels are engaging, unique, and aesthetic!

hi there, I’m Laura! ✤ if you’re new, I’m the heart behind all the pretty things you see around here! I’m a graphic designer based in the Carolinas. beyond creating thoughtful designs, I hold one too many titles, such as self-proclaimed sushi connoisseur, sourdough baker, avid snacker, world traveler, flower gardener, and dachshund lover. phew! did I miss any? 😆✨🍓🍣🎀 there’s a lot of heart in everything I do, from designing brand identities to exploring the world around me. life is too short not to take chances and explore! I absolutely love connecting with others on a personal level and obsessing over passions!!! 🫶🏼 now it’s your turn, what titles do you hold? I want to get to know you! ↴ 📸 @maddieandrewsphotography ☕️ @rendezbrewcafe
