Forge Ahead with Creative Fire 〰️

We bring the creative fuel necessary for brands to thrive in the long-run.

We specialize in brand strategy, visual identity design, website design & development, social media design, and brand innovation. Your idea is anything but basic - so why should your brand be? Even if your vision is simple, that doesn’t mean your brand can’t be unique & stand out from the rest. We’re anything but cookie-cutter here at Westward Studio. Let’s manifest that purpose that makes your brand special, and tease out the central force that differentiates you from the rest. We want to hear about all of your big, crazy dreams. Oh, and your projects, too.

We’re committed to helping you reach your full potential.

Whether we’re creating brand identities, custom illustrations, or building out a website from scratch, our goal is to create something that’s unique to you and makes your audience stop in their tracks to look twice. We create magnetic brands that can’t be ignored - personality & spunk in the front - strategy and functionality in the back.

  • John Wittig, CEO, Coffeebar

    β€œWe are immensely grateful for Kristie and Westward Studio. Kristie truly feels like a part of our own team. She approaches her work from a real point of collaboration and servant- heartedness. For her unparalleled teamwork and the quality of her art, we are naming Westward Studio one of Coffebar’s two β€œPartners of the Year”. Kristie has incorporated herself into our brand image incredibly well. She is patient and diligent to reach concrete points of understanding, always motivated to make the next phone call or the next draft to ensure alignment, and quick to respond regardless of her workload. Thank you Kristie for how you’ve immersed yourself in our brand and our CB family.”

  • Cassandra & Amber, Red Riding Hood Productions

    β€œIt has been such a dream to work with Kristie for our company's rebrand. We were immediately impressed with her onboarding process, keen interest in getting to know us, the open and easy communication throughout, and are so thrilled with the final results. We highly recommend hiring Westward Studios for all of your brand design & identity needs.”

  • Megan Niger Photography

    β€œI worked with Kristie the last few months to completely redo my website, brand design & brand identity and could not be happier with the result. I came to her with a few general ideas and she turned them into magic. Not only did she do the design aspect, but she also did the copywriting on my website because I’m no good with words and it fits me perfectly. It’s been about a week since lunching my new brand and I’ve already seen major improvement in attracting my ideal clients. After speaking to multiple artists, I decided Kristie was the best fit because she offered full brand design, complete website creation & copy-write all in one place (and because her western flair was a perfect match for my style). Can’t say enough great things about the work that she’s done for me, forever grateful. Thank you Kristie!”

  • Adriana Maya Photography

    β€œKristie of Westward Studio was amazing to work with! I was initially drawn to her western and vintage style design style and I was looking forward to having her revamp my branding and website. From our initial mood boards to my final brand guide and website, Kristie absolutely killed it! She perfectly nailed the dreamy, vintage, and southwest vibes I was looking for and SO MUCH more! I’ve already gotten so many inquiries and compliments on my website and branding! I cannot recommend Westward Studio enough!”

  • Chris - The Outdoor Calling

    β€œWe had an exceptional experience working with Kristie at Westward Studio. She was extremely helpful, patient and professional, taking the time to work with us and our different ideas to create a logo that we loved. I will definitely use her design services again.”

    β€œI highly, HIGHLY recommend Westward Studio for any and all graphic needs. I came to her with all sorts of jumbled ideas and color schemes and she completely exceeded my expectations. Everything she created was even better than anything I could ever think of! She is very creative and super easy to work with! I could not recommend her graphic design business enough!!”

    From start to finish, working with Westward Studio was easy, professional, fun, and exciting. Kristie has a keen eye for all things branding. She knows what’s trendy and what styles will stand the test of time. I chose to have Westward Studio design & direct my entire brand identity from scratch. The process was so fun and I am in love with the finished product. I have a custom website, social media templates, stickers, business cards, and more branding pieces that I am completely obsessed with. Kristie was intuitive, creative, and nailed my style. I love how artistic and original each design she creates is. Kristie is a true artist! I loved working with Westward Studio and highly recommend them for all of your branding and design needs.

    I highly recommend Westward Studio for branding and web design services. I worked with Kristie, and she was an absolute pleasure to work with. She is a talented designer who is passionate about her work. She will help you create a brand that is unique and beautiful. She was able to take my half-baked ideas and turn them into a brand that is better than I could have imagined. I appreciated Kristie's collaborative process and expert guidance. She was always open to my feedback, and she made sure that I was happy with every step of the design process. After my branding and website project was complete, I hired Kristie to design business cards, gift boxes, postcards, and booth items for an event. I am so happy with all of her work. She consistently delivers high-quality designs and service. Thanks to Kristie, I get so many compliments on my branding and site!
