Project-based Graphic Design Flexible Design Support—Your Way
Choose hourly services for specific projects or an intensive VIP Design Day to knock out your entire wishlist in one focused session. No long-term commitment, just professional results when you need them.
Two Options, One GoalProfessional Design Without the Long-Term Contract
Sometimes you need a designer for a specific project—a pitch deck for Friday's meeting, updated social graphics, or a complete marketing overhaul before your next campaign.
Project-Based Services give you precisely that: skilled, strategic design support on your terms. Choose hourly services for ongoing project work, or book a VIP Design Day for intensive, focused output.
This works well for:
Businesses testing out a design partnership
Teams with occasional creative needs
Professionals who want high-quality work without ongoing contracts
Anyone with specific projects or tight deadlines

Why VIP Days Are Different
-
Maximum Focus
This is not "fit you in between other projects" work. When you book a VIP Day, you're the only client on my calendar. Eight hours of concentrated attention means we accomplish what would typically take weeks of back-and-forth.
-
Strategic Planning
Before your day begins, we'll have a 30-minute strategy call to prioritize your wishlist, clarify your goals, and ensure we're set up for success. By the time your VIP Day arrives, I'll already understand your vision.
-
Same-Day Delivery
Everything created during your VIP Day is delivered by the end of the day—fully designed, finalized, and ready to use immediately.
-
Post-Project Support
Your VIP Day includes 7 days of post-project support for minor tweaks or questions. Think of it as a safety net to ensure everything works perfectly in the real world.
The ProcessHow VIP Design Days Work
-
Fill out the Project Intake Form with details about your design needs and goals. I'll review your request, confirm we're a good fit, and send over available dates.
-
Once your day is booked, you'll receive a prep guide and checklist. All materials must be submitted at least 48 hours before your VIP Day so we can hit the ground running.
-
We'll have a 30-minute strategy call to prioritize your wishlist, clarify your vision, and create a game plan for the day.
-
This is your dedicated design sprint. I'll spend the day focused solely on your project. You'll be available for quick feedback throughout the day to keep things moving.
-
At the end of the day, you'll receive your final files ready to use. You also get 7 days of post-project support for any light revisions or questions.

Choose Hourly Services If:
You have occasional, specific projects with flexible timelines

Plan AheadLimited Monthly Project Availability
To ensure I can deliver exceptional work on time, I take on a limited number of projects each month.
Typical booking timelines:
