Ask Me Anything!

How do I know if we’re a good fit?

I love helping new and established brands to add some bold to their identity or campaign. If this sounds like what you’re looking for, please reach out! First, we can assess compatibility through your application to work together and through our initial free consultation call, which is like a "first date" for our professional relationship, I want us to feel totally in-sync and excited about the project since we will be working so closely together. During this call, we can discuss your needs, goals, and design preferences, as well as my design approach and style. By understanding each other's expectations and requirements, we can determine if we are a good fit to work together.

Do you offer payment plans?

Yes, definitely! I offer payment plans to help make my services more accessible and flexible for my clients. I know this is a big investment and I want to work with you to make your dreams possible. Payment plans are typically broken up into 4 easy installments that are due throughout the duration of your project.

Do you offer copywriting?

 I offer light copy editing, such as suggesting changes or improvements to headers and other small bits of copy. However, for larger copywriting projects, it is generally best to hire a dedicated copywriter who has the expertise and experience to create compelling, effective copy for your business. I would be happy to provide recommendations for copywriters if you are in need of more extensive copywriting services.

How long does it take to complete a project?

This depends on your business and project needs. But here is a general timeline guide. Brand packages: estimated 6-8 weeks from kick-off to completion. Campaign packages: estimated 6-8 weeks from kick-off to completion. Retainer packages which cover 2-3 month commitment options, including: The Essential package- 1 day a week for 2-3 months. The Standard package- 2 days a week for 2-3 months. The Premium package- 3 days a week for 2-3 months.

What’s your experience?

I’ve been ‘artsy’ for as long as I can remember. But in 2010 I won a contest creating my first logo for a design club at my alma mater, University of Maryland, and never looked back. This led to my first design internship at a parfumerie in Paris. I graduated from the UMD in 2014 with a BFA in graphic design. I started Lo Studio in 2019 after six years of working as a designer in-house for retail clients as well as at various ad agencies. So, now with 9 years of experience working with wonderful clients across the country, I know the intricacies of blending process and strategy with stunning design creativity. And I can’t wait to work with you!

How much do your services cost?

My design services are definitely an investment, but I offer a range of services to fit your specific needs and budget. During our initial consultation, we can discuss the details of your project and come up with a quote based on the scope of your project and the services you require. I offer essential, standard and premium tiered brand and campaign packages. We will determine which one is right for your needs from the initial inquiry form and free consultation call. I can’t wait to hear all about your project!

How soon can we get started?

I usually book projects out about a month in advance, but this can vary depending on my current workload and the scope of your project. Once we’ve had our free initial consultation and I have a clear understanding of your needs and goals, I will be able to provide a more accurate timeline for starting your project.

What do you need from me to get started?

 To get started, I will ask you to fill out the inquiry form that includes some basic information about your business and the design project. I also ask you to schedule a free consultation call. Once we establish that we are a great fit, I’ll send you the Discovery Questionnaire to gather the detailed information that will provide a solid foundation for our work together. The questionnaire will cover topics such as your target audience, your brand aesthetic, and your marketing goals.
