Your business deserves visuals
that could only
ever belong to you.

You know what your business feels like from the inside. Warm, specific, completely yours. But the images you're using to show that to the world feel too generic, cold and just a bit blegh.

And when your visuals don't feel specific enough, the people you most want to reach scroll past.

Bespoke illustrations change that. Instead of looking generic, they tell your unique story, in your colours, matching your vibe.

I'm Emmelie, and I've been drawing for as long as I can remember. Long before I became a brand designer, I was holding a pencil, collecting colouring pencils and paints and creating little pieces of art.

That love of drawing is what makes my illustrations different from anything you'd find in a stock library. Every piece is created with you in mind, showing your passion and helping explain what you do in a creative way.

The result is something that couldn't have come from a template (or AI) it could only ever have come from your enthusiasm and uniqueness combined with my illustration skills.

Exploring options

Every illustration project starts with a conversation.

 

We'll chat through your business, what you want to communicate and how illustration could bring that to life, whether that's an original window display or your real-life situation of being a busy mum and business owner.

The anticipated wait

Once we've agreed on the direction, I'll get to work.

 

There's something quite magical about waiting to see your ideas turned into little pieces of art created specifically for you.

The joy of sharing

When your illustrations are ready, you get to do a little dance every time you share them; on your socials, your website, or when people walk past your window.

every illustration project is bespoke, here's what stays the same

Every illustration project is different - which is why we start with a conversation rather than a fixed package.

 

What stays the same every time is:

  • a call to figure out the creative brief,

  • what you want me to illustrate exactly (and if you don't know, we can brainstorm together),

  • two revision rounds where you give honest, critical feedback,

  • and the final illustrations in the format that you need.

Investment starts from £400 and varies depending on the number of illustrations, complexity and usage.

Don't just take my word for it, here's what Monica from Hillside Agency said after we worked together on an illustrated outdoor map.

"We recently worked with Emmelie on an outdoor map for a major regeneration project in Edinburgh, Scotland.

Her illustrations really brought the map to life, perfectly balancing charm and clarity. She was a joy to work with - creative, reliable and completely in tune with the project's needs.

We're so happy for the care and talent she brought to this work and would love to collaborate with her again!"
