Hi! I’m Caresse

I’m an independent graphic designer, photo retoucher, triathlete, traveler, fitness instructor, and cat lover. For over two decades, I’ve worked with small businesses and individuals on brand development, print & digital marketing materials, and whatever else is needed to create opportunity, growth, and community.

A keen eye for visual communication, combined with strong photo retouching and copy editing skills, allow me to offer a complete design package. Whether clients are looking to brand or rebrand; need print materials; want to upgrade their website; layout a cook book; or have photos that need restoration, I’m here. I’ve worked with a diverse array of clients over the years, including yoga studios, nonprofits, musicians, writers, city government agencies, community organizations, and race directors.

I approach every project with integrity, seriousness, and humor — sometimes the best creative breakthroughs happen in conjunction with silliness. Sometimes a mini karaoke microphone is involved. Whatever the process, I’m passionate about helping my clients effectively communicate their brand and pride myself on maintaining powerful and long-term relationships. I may be an independent designer, but I thrive as part of a team.

In addition to design, I teach kickboxing and cycling, volunteer as a guide for disabled athletes, and chill with my five rescue cats.

I love color and breathe fonts. My favorite color is plaid.
