A BRAND IS MORE THAN JUST A LOGO.
Think about your favorite brands and why you connect with them - what about their story draws you in and more importantly, keeps you in? This is why a brand is more than just a logo, and deserves to be designed as such.

Our Branding Services
Through a series of online proofs, we will create a design board and four initial logo designs to get us headed in the right direction, and then begin to fine-tune. The simple, online form makes it easy to check box elements when approved or write in changes for the next proof. Four proofs are included in each package.
Proofing + Design
We will have an initial branding consultation before booking where we'll chat about your goals, timeline, and if we will be a good fit. After this call, an invoice, contract and Branding 101 Form will be sent. The form is some homework for you that allows us to get a deeper dive into your brand goals. Once all three are completed, we'll move into proofs!
Consultation + Homework
Once your logo is approved, we will send over the logo files for you. From here, we will work on your branded stationery, graphics, website design and any other items you may need to enhance your brand. We'll create some launch materials for you, and we'll "cheers" as you share your new look with the world!

Like What You See?
Kaylyn, your designer, here!
I recently re-branded Pirouette Paper, and made the switch from Squarespace to Showit, giving my brand a much-needed boost! Not only did it make my brand look way prettier, but it has saved me SO much time on the business back-end, and given me more confidence than I thought I could have!
Branding has always been pretty natural to me, and if you don't believe that, just take a look at this logo design circa 2003!
I carried that through college where I majored in Public Relations + Advertising, soaking up all the knowledge I could, knowing I wanted to start my own business. Fast forward four years and here I am! Excited to help you with your business, and to propel it to a level you have always dreamed it to be at.
I BELIEVE IN CONSISTENCY AND COHESIVENESS
...which is why we are a one-stop-shop and happy to offer you beginning to end branding services. I give you TONS of brand elements, even with the most basic package, because I want you to have every tool possible to create and fully understand each layer of the design.
I also believe in getting it right the first time
...so you're set up and don't have to do it ALL over again in a few years, maybe just some tweaks. Nothing is worse than investing so much, only for one element to not be strong and still holding you back.
“Kaylyn was an absolute delight to work with. I am a perfectionist, and was worried about how the design process would work for all of our day-of wedding pieces. Her professionalism, creativity, and expertise made the entire process SO easy and enjoyable. She listened to exactly what I wanted, and designed STUNNING pieces for our ceremony and reception, and also that we will cherish forever. She is the sweetest person ever, and I am so grateful for her attention to detail and pure talent! Will definitely be hiring Kaylyn for any future calligraphy/ stationery needs!”
Paige + Michael
“Where do I even begin? Kaylyn worked with us on our invitations as well of our seating chart, welcome sign, and table numbers. She was such a dream to work with from the start. She is so sweet, attentive to detail, and really cares about her clients. She was so easy to get in contact with and the entire design process was incredibly easy. I got so many compliments on our invite suite...they really were absolutely beautiful and romantic. As for our day of pieces, I had a very specific vision and she completely brought that to life. I love our pieces so much that I plan on framing them to display. WORK WITH KAYLYN! You will not regret it.”
Alessandra + Andrew
“We worked with Kaylyn to design our wedding invitations, and could not be happier with the result!! Kaylyn was able to design invitations that perfectly matched my vision and was always so kind and prompt with communications. We are in Chicago so worked with Kaylyn solely through email and phone calls, but had absolutely zero issues. Despite being across the county, Kaylyn made my invitation design and print process one of the easiest parts of my wedding planning. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for beautiful and unique details for their wedding day (or any event!). Thank you so much Kaylyn!”
Megan + Andrew
“Kaylyn is truly amazing and so talented at what she does. She was one of the nicest, most professional and easy going vendors I worked with. We used her for invitations, itineraries, programs, place cards and signs at the wedding, and I am so happy the way all of it turned out. Being a first time bride, I was unsure of what colors, prints, and styles to use for our wedding, and Kaylyn really took the time to talk with me and guide me through what would look good. She went above and beyond in providing the best service to me. She was always available and prompt when answering my questions and was so timely with delivery as well. Her work is amazing - I love her calligraphy, design and style, and she is very affordable as well. Everything we ordered through her turned out so well, and I am so thankful for all the time, effort and support she gave to me during our time in working together. I highly recommend her!!”
Stacy + Rory
“Honestly the best stationer you can go with! Kaylyn does it all from invites, mirrors, stickers, monogram signs, candy bags, anything and everything! I was sooo happy that we went with Kaylyn for our wedding. She made it so easy and stress free throughout the whole process! Kaylyn offers so many options for absolutely everything she does and she is able to tailor to exactly what you want (which I love)!”
Sarah + Mitchell
“Kaylyn is the absolute best!! She has a modern aesthetic and a feminine touch and is so patient and accommodating and helpful! I had no idea how many options were out there in regards to invitation suites and paper choices and Kaylyn was always there with helpful suggestions and proof adjustments. The quality of her products are amazing and she is quick to turn around any proofs. 10 out of 10 would recommend her for ALL wedding stationery needs!!”

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Delivery + Launch
It varies for each individual client. We will discuss an initial timeline and scheduled completion date with deadlines to meet that goal. Typically, the design process takes 4-5 weeks, but it mainly depends on how quick and ready the client is. Let’s chat about what’s best for you!
WHAT IS THE TURNAROUND TIME?
This depends on our current design and production schedule. Let us know your desired completion date for your project and we can discuss a start date.
WHEN CAN WE START?
We build your brand from scratch, beginning with a 100% blank artboard canvas. By creating from the ground up, we are immersing you in your brand to get a first impression of the overall vibe. We feel this helps you get a deeper understanding as to how to visualize your future brand.
WHAT IS YOUR DESIGN APPROACH?
After our consultation and once I receive your Branding 101 Form, we begin the proofing process with a design board. This design board will include some initial fonts, colors and images, giving you a general feel about the direction of the branding. After getting your feedback from the design board, we will move into the logo proofing.
The first proof will contain four initial logo designs for you to look through. Each design is a carefully designed option with notes about its intentionality and brand potential. You'll choose a logo to move forward with, give your notes and corrections and another proof will be sent based on that feedback. This process continues until your logo is ready!
Four proofs are included in each package and any additional proofs are billed at $25/proof. Once your logo is approved, an Approval Proof will be sent with all versions of the logo and updated branding board to be officially signed off on. Shortly after, your logo files will be sent to you and the stationery/graphics design process begins!
WHAT IS PROOFING LIKE?
Before we start a project, we chat with each prospective client, educating them on our process, making sure our styles and aesthetic align. Our design process is unique, and requires some "homework" from you, which helps us best provide you with an intentional and meaningful, well-rounded brand. We feel confident that we can create the perfect brand for you, provided that you understand our process and what to expect. We know how scary it is to put your business in someone else's hands and will do our best to make sure we are a good match before we begin.
Your 50% retainer is non-refundable and covers the time carefully working on curating your brand. If you feel we are not achieving your goals or getting close to the right direction, you are not required to pay your remaining balance and may cancel our contract.
WHAT HAPPENS IF I'M NOT SATISFIED?
We believe in investing in your business, whether that’s with a bookkeeper, brand designer, or scuba instructor - whatever it is you need to grow your brand. We also believe in getting it right the first time. The return is so much greater when you invest in someone that will design with intention because your brand is more than just a logo - it’s an identity that you need to be able to understand and use efficiently. We put our heart and soul into our branding projects, which is why we make sure we are a good match before we start and why we take on a limited number of clients each year.
We are also ALL about consistency and cohesiveness, which is why we give you all brand elements to be able to carry that out. If you are looking for a complete brand overhaul and want us to take care of it from beginning to end, nothing would make us happier than to be able to handle it all for you!
Invoices can be made via online invoice with a credit or debit card, or you can mail a check. Please confirm the address with us before sending in a check. The remainder is due at design approval, when your logo is ready before we launch and we release the files to you. If you are in need of a payment plan, please contact us to see what we can do!
WHY IS IT EXPENSIVE?
The Branding 101 Form is an online homework assignment for you to fill out before the design process begins. This is where the majority of your time investment will come in and can take between 1-3 hours to work on. The more you put into this assignment, the more you'll get out of it in terms of the design. This form will go over your overall brand message, your ideal client and audience, your brand story, and brand aesthetics. Each section helps us in a specific way to be able to design for you and your audience best.

Is my logo design relevant to the aesthetic of my current ideal client?
ARE YOU REACHING YOUR BRAND POTENTIAL?
ASK YOURSELF:
Am I confident in my brand?
Am I excited to send potential leads to my website?
Do I have a variety of logo files to work with for my brand elements?
Do I have branded materials (pricing sheets, welcome packets, info sheets, etc.)?
Are my website analytics where they need to be? (aka: is my website keeping people on it?)
Am I getting a consistent amount of leads and sales? (aka: am I reaching my sales goals?)
Do I have an engaged email list that I interact with frequently?
Do I have a gallery of on-brand images that I am able to pull from?
Do I have workflowS set up for my leads, customers, and clients?
Answer no? Let us help.
