Web Design
Web Designer in Lake Stevens & Snohomish County, WA
A photographer offering web design services to small businesses, photographers, and creatives throughout Lake Stevens, Snohomish County, and the greater Seattle area. Every site is mobile-first, fast-loading, and built to rank on Google.
A Different Kind of Web Designer
Built by a Photographer, for Visual Businesses
Most web designers hand you a template and call it done. I approach every project as a photographer first, which means I understand composition, light, pacing, and the art of making an image stop someone mid-scroll. When I build a website for a photographer, artist, or creative small business, I know exactly which images to feature prominently, how to sequence a portfolio gallery, and how to write alt text that actually helps you rank on Google.
This website you're on right now? I built it. It ranks for competitive local photography keywords, loads in under two seconds, scores in the 90s on Google PageSpeed, and has driven real inquiry volume since launch. I apply the exact same approach (custom code, clean architecture, and intentional SEO) to every client site I build.
Whether you are a fellow photographer needing a portfolio that books clients, a boutique small business in Bothell or Marysville ready to look credible online, or a service provider who has been embarrassed to hand out their web address. I will build you something you're proud to share. Based in Lake Stevens, WA, I offer web design for photographers and small businesses throughout Snohomish County and the Seattle area.

How It Works
From First Call to Live Site
Discovery
We start with a kickoff call to learn your business, goals, audience, and vision. I review your existing brand assets and any inspiration you have gathered.
Design
I create a design concept in your brand colors and typography. You review a visual mockup and share feedback before a single line of code is written.
Development
Your approved design gets built into a fast, clean, accessible website. I share a staging link so you can preview and test the real site before it goes live.
Launch
Once you approve, we go live. I handle the technical launch, connect your domain, submit your sitemap to Google, and verify everything is working correctly.
Support
Post-launch support is included in every package. I am available via email to answer questions, fix anything unexpected, and help you get comfortable managing your site.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to build my website?
Most projects are completed in 4 to 8 weeks from the kickoff call, depending on the package and how quickly content is provided. Starter sites typically launch in 3 to 4 weeks. Premium custom builds with advanced features take 6 to 8 weeks. We share a detailed timeline at the start of every project so you always know what to expect.
Do I need to provide my own photos and copy?
You provide your photos, after all, your work is the star of your site. For copy, we can work with what you provide, help you refine it, or write it for you (copywriting is available as an add-on). If you are a photographer, we can pull directly from your existing galleries to build out your portfolio pages.
Will my website show up on Google?
Every site we build includes foundational SEO: proper title tags, meta descriptions, canonical tags, structured data (Schema.org), fast load times, mobile-first build, and a submitted sitemap. Business and Premium packages include a deeper SEO setup with keyword targeting and Google Search Console configuration. We also have direct experience growing a local business website from obscurity to page one. We apply that same knowledge to every client site.
What platform do you build on?
We build primarily in pure HTML, CSS, and JavaScript for maximum performance and zero platform lock-in, your site will be blazing fast with no monthly CMS fees. For clients who need a content management system, we also build on WordPress or Webflow. We will recommend the right platform for your specific needs during the discovery call.
What is included in the monthly maintenance plan?
The $149/month maintenance plan covers: plugin and software updates, security monitoring, uptime monitoring, monthly performance checks, up to 1 hour of content updates per month (text, photos, pricing changes), and priority email support with a 24-hour response time. It is the best way to keep your site secure, fast, and current without needing to touch the code yourself.
Do you work with clients outside of Washington State?
Absolutely. Web design is fully remote and we work with clients across the US. Our photography roots are in Snohomish County, WA, but our web design work has no geographic limits. All communication happens via video call and email, and we use collaborative tools to share designs and collect feedback at every stage.
