The Darling Tree
“As soon as Jo and I wrapped our initial phone call, I knew we were on the same page. I felt confident she had the skills to make my redesign dreams come true, and was unbelievably excited to see how my vision would translate into an actual cohesive design. Jo didn’t disappoint! She absolutely “got” the look I was trying to achieve.
She’s incredibly professional, a great communicator, and wonderfully talented - a true pleasure to work with. Jo genuinely listened to my ideas and concerns every step of the way, and never failed to deliver work on schedule. Now, I feel like the sky's the limit! I look forward to working with Jo on future projects!"
“Jo and I have been working together since 2009 and it's honestly been one of the easiest working relationships I've ever experienced. She is fabulously professional, always delivers on time and has the uncanny ability to know what I want even before I've figured it out. We've gotten to the stage where I send her a few ideas for a new project and like magic she sends me something back that's right on the money.
Over time we've built up my brand to the point where it really does feel like me. What you see online and how I am offline are melded together beautifully - 95% of that is down to Jo's brilliance. I consider her an invaluable member of my team and would be utterly lost without her. ”
"Right off the bat, I knew The Darling Tree’s feminine design aesthetic would help me create a beautiful, clean site. While I was thrilled to be working with Jo, I was nervous about whether she’d be able to interpret my ideas into what was in my heart.
I had no reason to worry - from the get-go, I was blown away by Jo’s flexibility, creativity, responsiveness, and her care about the little details. The whole experience was so easy, fun, and intuitive - there was some serious mind-melding going on!
I’m over-the-moon excited to move forward with my gorgeous site, and I feel like I have solid footing to expand and grow.”
"I'm always looking for a nature-inspired way of telling our brand story, and The Darling Tree designs had a soft-yet-versatile style that really resonated with me. As an entrepreneur, it can be overwhelming to have a ton of inspiration, but wonder if someone will be able to translate those thoughts into digital format. It can also be a serious challenge to find someone who is gifted, reliable, and compatible with your schedule. Jo was all of those things, and so much more.
I loved working with The Darling Tree because Jo makes the whole process so ease-filled. She’s patient and methodical (no detail gets overlooked), yet she can see the bigger picture, and can evaluate the experience that people will have with the design. She doesn't get overwhelmed with my flood of ideas, and figures out how to translate them into a digital experience.
Nothing seems too difficult for Jo - she finds a solution for everything. She listens to my crazy ramblings, looks at my sketches, and then makes them come alive digitally. And most importantly, she really cares - you feel like your project is just as important to her as it is to you. And that's rare. I absolutely recommend The Darling Tree."
"As soon as I found The Darling Tree, I immediately fell in love with the designs, feel and the boho chic look Jo provides. I was floored by how quickly she was able to translate my desires, dreams and thoughts onto the screen. Her attention to detail was outstanding, and the whimsical, soft look she gave to my site is breathtakingly beautiful. Jo is just magical!
Jo’s design of my online store has been crucial for my growth, and introducing my tea to stores nationwide. As I continue to build my brand and work hard to get my name out there, I am so proud to be able to send potential customers, friends and family to my site. I always get positive feedback about it, and it makes for a fantastic first impression, which helps my business grow."
"I’d been designing my own blog and website for years, and I knew it was time to hire a professional to take my sites to the next level. I started looking around at some of my favorite blogs, and noticed they all had something in common: The Darling Tree. Still, I was nervous about handing over control to another designer. This was the first time I was entrusting my vision to someone else.
I wish I”d never worried! I was so happy with the entire experience, and quickly learned I could trust Jo with my work. Her beautiful aesthetic, and her ability to translate my vision and her ideas into a stunning site blew me away. I felt so at ease and comfortable during the process, and she created something truly amazing.
Trust, collaboration and beauty are the pillars of The Darling Tree experience. I know I can count on Jo to help me continue to develop my sites to meet my growing needs. Should you work with The Darling Tree? Absolutely YES!"
"Once I stumbled across Jo's website and the websites she created, I felt instantly connected to her style. But it wasn't until I worked with Jo that I realised how well she connected with me as a client. She just ‘gets’ it - it’s like she can read your mind! She knew exactly what I wanted, and I couldn't wait to see it!
Colour is my world, and it was so important for me to get that right in my branding. Jo made the process so smooth and enjoyable. I was excited every minute to see what she was going to do next. She took charge, and even taught me some simple techniques. I’m thrilled with the work Jo did, and now I love the way my brand now perfectly reflects me as an individual. Thanks Jo!"
