Want to know how it happens?
Here’s what it looks like -
Discovery Call: After you’ve sent me your intake form (by clicking here), I’ll reach out and we’ll chat for 20 minutes to touch on where you are, where you want to be and how you hope your new website or design will help you get there. This will give us each a chance to feel if we’re a fit for each other.
If so, I’ll send you a copy of my Welcome Guide and our Agreement. You can confirm that and which package you’re going with, send your deposit, and then the real fun begins!
Welcome Guide: This is an outline of what happens when and what I need from you in order for this to be a success. I explain when you can expect to hear back from me throughout the process and what I’ll be doing in the mean time.
Deep Dive Discovery Call: On this call we discuss the content of your site, what you envision going where on each page and how you’d like your visitors to get there. We’ll talk about the feeling tone you want the site to have, colors you like and any imagery you want to incorporate.
Drafts: We take a preliminary look at your new website’s home page to determine where to go from there. I’ll explain why I've made the design decisions that I have and how they tie in with your direction/goals and you give your feedback. This is where you give your first round of edits. Based on that meeting, then I’ll build out the full site. Then we do a second draft and round of edits.
Wrap Up: Once we’re both on the same page(s!), I hand you the reigns by showing you how to work in Squarespace to do your own updates - unless you want me to. Which I’m happy to do! We transfer your domain to the new site upon receipt of final payment and then site ownership is yours!

Delphine - Designer
I live for the creation of beauty. Beauty in all forms. In fact, I can be a bit obsessive about it.
Because I’m here to help create a more beautiful world, I’m all about supporting you in doing the same through your presence on the web. On Squarespace. On Kajabi. On Mighty Networks.
As far as design itself goes, I went to school for interior design; founded, built and sold a handbag design company; and have been designing web sites pretty much since such things existed.
In other realms, I am a soul guide, a ceremonialist, a podcast host and a motivational speaker.
Why Squarespace?
Squarespace was designed with you in mind, making it easy for you to maintain, update, and monitor your website on your own. Building pages is a matter of dragging and dropping blocks in a page editor, and backend tasks are a snap with clearly labeled menus and panels. You can use their suite of mobile apps to track your site performance in real time, long after the project is complete.
Beautiful design that performs
Squarespace templates are beautifully and thoughtfully designed to incorporate cutting-edge UI/UX best practices, which means your website will have the best of the best in “form and function” baked right in.
Peace of mind
Squarespace is a self-contained platform that works seamlessly and is fully managed from top to bottom. This means there’s never any need to update software, plugins, or widgets; patch security vulnerabilities; or worry that changing one component might break something else. It also means there’s rarely any need to investigate or pay for third-party apps or plugins since most functionality is native to Squarespace.
Responsive design
Mobile traffic now accounts for more than half of all website traffic. With that in mind, it’s critical that websites perform across any device and screen size. Every Squarespace site includes a unique mobile experience that matches the overall style
of the website, so content will look great on every device, every time.
Built-in search engine optimization
Every Squarespace website is equipped with all the elements needed for a strong SEO strategy. Site descriptions, page titles, custom URLs, search- friendly formatting, and other key elements are all easily managed. Each site also generates a sitemap automatically that helps Google crawl, understand, and rank a website.
Secure Connections
Squarespace offers free SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) certificates for all Squarespace Domains and third-party domains connected and pointing to a Squarespace site. With SSL enabled, your website visitors will enjoy a secure connection on every page.
24/7 award-winning support
The Customer Care team at Squarespace is available seven days a week, 24-hours a day, and has won several awards for outstanding customer support.
Years in the making
Squarespace launched in 2003 and has grown steadily since, gaining over a million customers over the years. It is a well-funded and well-regarded company. You don’t have to worry that Squarespace might be a flash in the pan.
Room to grow
Squarespace scales. Squarespace was designed for everyone from bloggers to musicians to online retailers, so you can be confident that it is robust and flexible enough to grow with you.
