My name is Emma Zink

I create intentional brands by taking the time to learn who you are, and reflecting that in your new logo and website. I believe great design work is rooted in historical context; both your personal history, as well as the art movements of past generations.

The two most important questions I ask when I start a project are “Who are You?” and “What do you do?”. These extremely simple questions are the bread and butter of understanding the background of you and your business, and how we can intentionally design a brand identity that reflects and champions your history, while propelling you forward into the future.

LOGO DESIGN + BRANDING

Every great organization needs a great logo. This logo will be used as the foundation of your entire visual identity.

WEBSITE DESIGN

Websites are the headquarters of your online brand presence. Using your established brand, I design a site that perfectly shares your organization’s story. I also work with you to create a site structure and develop the content needed for each page.

WORDPRESS WEBSITE DEVELOPMENT

Once your site is designed, I can develop the whole thing using wordpress! After launch, I help provide ongoing updates as needed via a website maintenance agreement. I also educate you on how to make updates on your own time as you would like to.

ART DIRECTION

As the art director of each freelance project I work on, I manage the visual aspects from start to finish. I can provide an outside perspective of your organization's brand identity, and help shape it to what you need your identity to be through the process of creating and updating your branding/website/marketing materials and more.

EVENT PHOTOGRAPHY

I can plan, shoot, and edit a gallery of photos to capture your next corporate or non-profit event.

BRAND + PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHY

If your brand needs new photos to tell share your products/services or messages with others, lets schedule a shoot!

CAMPAIGN CREATIVE (EMAIL, SOCIAL, PRINT)

If you have an established brand and you're looking to build brand awareness and get in front of potential customers, you need strategic campaign creative that can help you achieve your goals. Campaign creative might include email blasts, social media and digital ads, print ads and more.

PRINT DESIGN

From the meticulous creation of compelling annual reports, sales catalogues, and magazines to the thoughtful design of newsletters, I transform your ideas into visually stunning and professionally crafted print materials.

SHOPIFY WEBSITE DESIGN AND BUILD

Shopify is the leading e-commerce website platform. I utilize my understanding of product archive and categorizing on Shopify to design and build successful e-commerce stores.

COPYWRITING

If you’re selling a product, explaining a service, or asking someone to join your initiative, chances are, you need really good copywriting. Interesting content is founded in good writing. In order to have good content, you need to be able to say the right things, in the best way possible. Copywriting creates the content used on every piece of communication that your organization creates and shares.

DATA VISUALIZATION

Data visualization is the graphical representation of information and data. Think infographic, but with better design.
