Indoor and outdoor signs in a variety of substrates are engineered around your intended use and objectives. Outdoor aluminum signs and indoor pop-up displays (pictured at right) are just two of the many ways to increase the visibility of your business.
Love your hand-painted logo but need new signage? Your existing artwork can be digitally re-created for new signage as well as for other uses like T-shirts, promotional products and a new web site.
Jan works with northern Illinois' premier sign fabricator
to ensure eye-catching, high-quality results that shine a spotlight on your business and its message.
Custom calendars in nearly any size can be designed around your existing digital or print photos. Each supplied image undergoes a rigorous optimization process to look its best. Photo scanning and restoration services are available to this end.
Of course, Jan can build your corporate calendar around customized professional photography that takes into account your brand's values and goals.
Does your company need help expressing itself?
Does your marketing include professional images of your company's people as well as its products? One of the hallmarks of effective marketing is a PR portrait that conveys confidence, approachability, and trustworthiness to prospective clients.
Do your marketing communications, both in print and online, align with your company's brand identity? Your corporate communications are most effective when designed and written through your company's vision, mission, and core values.
Jan brings more than 20 years of experience and a robust set of creative skills to handcraft or refine the look-and-feel of your company, product or service through brand-aligned visuals and communications.

These illustrated mascots represented a nonprofit organization who wished to leverage its family-friendly fun with an agricultural flair.
The resulting digital artwork was used in multiple applications including press printed book covers, brochures, fliers, posters and admission tickets; screen printed T-shirts; vinyl signage and banners; and even commemorative license plates!
Publishing is all about message and medium.
Books, catalogs, calendars, signs, magnets, window clings, even vending machine fronts—every medium has its own technical specifications for output. Jan speaks this technical language, leveraging both her creative problem solving and her industry connections to give you peace of mind about your project.
But what about your message? What you say is as important as how you say it. Jan brings strong copywriting and editing skills to help you find your brand voice and connect with your audience or customers.
If a picture is worth a thousand words, then how many words is a professional portrait worth to your business or family?
For your business, a professional portrait may be worth a prospective customer deciding to pick up the phone and call for more details. It may also signify the investment and years of hard work culminating in your company's reputation and success.
For your family, a professional portrait may be the visual embodiment of the story that connects future generations with their roots.
Every portrait has purpose and a story to tell. What will be yours?
