Working with Carisa was such a great experience! She was incredibly easy to work with, always organized, and kept everything on track from start to finish. I really appreciated her attention to detail and how she brought my vision to life. I’d highly recommend Carisa to anyone for their branding and design needs.

Carisa made the whole process of creating my website, logo, and brand so smooth and stress-free.

project scope: branding & website design

Create a sophisticated, high-end brand and website that positions Krista to grow her business by partnering with builders and landscapers on residential projects while also working directly with homeowners to design their dream yards.

The objective: 

The brand features an upscale, moody and muted palette paired with a delicate floral background and elegant, dreamy fonts—balancing sophistication with warmth. The goal was to create a polished yet inviting look that reflects Krista’s thoughtful design approach and allows her flowers and beautiful landscape drawings to shine!

The Lollie’s Landscapes brand aesthetic is timeless, calming, and rooted in natural elegance. Think cozy luxury meets functional design. It’s warm, inviting, clean, and intentional—like a peaceful morning in a well-loved garden.

Carisa doesn’t just design—she captures the essence of a brand. She’s truly gifted at what she does.

Carisa has been an essential part of my team for the past couple of years. Her ability to bring my brand to life—both visually and through messaging—has been nothing short of magic. She has an incredible gift for listening and translating ideas into a brand that feels deeply authentic and clear. Not only has she done this for me, but she’s worked with my clients as well, helping them clarify what they’re really trying to say and then turning that into visuals and messaging that perfectly represent who they are and how they want to show up online.

The designs have me drooling!! Carisa captured my personality and biz energy so perfectly.

I can't thank Carisa enough—she is like a color wizard. everything is so beautiful I could cry! I'm finally looking like a legit brand and not thrown together. This makes me soooo happy!

—Erika Beck, LCSW

She took my vision and brought it to life with creativity, talent, and attention to detail. 

Working with Carisa was an absolute pleasure. I LOVE how she developed my website and branding. Her communication was clear and prompt, making the process easy and enjoyable. I would most definitely work with her again in the future.

When Carisa sent me the original concepts for my logos, I got butterflies!!

She understood what I was looking for perfectly, using a vision board I created on Pinterest. She is so talented and it blew me away to see what she was capable of! I asked for a few minor adjustments and she was able to not only make the changes, but make it cohesive with the rest of the design! I’m so obsessed with my new logo!!

—Linda H, Chunky Knit Co

They took 2 sentences I gave them and turned it into the most beautiful, stunning brand. Better than I even imagined!

I didn't have a brand in the beginning—it was just a terrible logo and random colors. The whole process was so easy and straightforward and my biggest regret was that I didn't spend money on this at the start of my journey. I cannot wait to get going!

—Dr. Sharla Clark, Founder of Clark Family Med and Clark Medical Cosmetics

Working with Smith and Ivory Design Studio has been an absolute game-changer for my brand. 

The logo, website, and overall aesthetic are not only beautiful but also incredibly user-friendly and aligned with my audience. Her ability to translate abstract ideas into refined, upscale design is nothing short of amazing.

Beyond the creative work, she’s also been a dream to collaborate with—professional, intuitive, and completely in tune with what I needed. I’m so grateful to have found a designer who not only gets it, but elevates it. I can’t recommend Smith and Ivory enough!
