welcome to the new site!!!

Hello!

Welcome to the first post on new site!  I am so happy to have you here (especially everyone who made the jump from the wordpress blog!), and I am just thrilled to finally launch my very own website!

I am rockin’ a brand new logo with website design to match, and… everything is in one place!  All of my content, galleries, and information is now on one easy to navigate website!

I fully apologize for the overuse of the exclamation point in this post.  This website has been my number one business priority for a while, and I can’t tell you how excited I am that it is actually live and functioning!

Now, for a quick rundown on how it all came together…

The site is powered by squarespace, an awesome (and affordable!) website platform which doesn’t require a PhD in html to get a cool website going!

The gorgeous bird illustration was done by Michael Crawford.  Huge, huge thank you to Mike!  The site wouldn’t be anything with out it!

I created the new logo design and website design.  I will definitely be blogging about my design process later, because it is so, so tough for a non-designer (A.K.A. me!) to design a site.  It is possible, though, and it can be affordable!  I will share everything I learned 🙂

P.S. If you have any thoughts on the new site, I would love to hear them!  The good, the bad, and the ugly.  If you find anything difficult to use or, heaven forbid, any typos, please let me know.  If you love things, I want to hear that, too 😉
