<p><a href="http://sweetandflour.com.au">Sweet &#038; Flour</a> is a shopping system that sells cakes, hampers and other products in regional NSW.</p>
<p>My work with Sweet &#038; Flour included <strong>full logo development</strong>, business cards, the ecommerce website linked above and a web blog so that the client can post relevant news to her website with ease.</p>
<p>For this site I recommended professional photography for the products to which the client agreed.  <a href="http://shoalhavenstudios.com.au/">Shoal Haven Studios</a> have provided excellent imagery, which has really made a difference to the overall look of the website.</p>

<p><a href="http://swishhomeware.com.au">Swish Homewares</a> was a site that I completed last month.  Another shopping cart with some custom modules to suit Australian ecommerce.</p>
<p>My work with Swish also included the logo (which was created with the Curlz font at the clients request) and full product upload.  This generally involves manually editing images, in this case to a pure white background.  This helps the products to stand out while making the site look professional and clean.</p>

As well as completing three websites in this time, I have also had numerous updates and a lot of print design work.  I will update and add this information so that others can see what I have been up to.</p>
<p>I also have another website and more updates and print design work on now.  I will have these done fairly quickly, so now is a good time to contact me about your own website.</p>

<p><a href="http://earthslings.com.au">Earthslings</a> is another eCommerce system, which I completed last week.  This particular style is a kind of mesh between a Japanese garden and an urban style.  As well as the full shopping cart, easily editable pages, simple product upload system and Australian payment and shipping modules, this site also has an image module which gives style to the usual pop up system and a &#8220;better together&#8221; module which allows discounts for multiple purchases when made together.</p>

<p><a href="http://ellejewellerydesign.com.au">Elle Jewellery Design</a> is another eCommerce shopping cart, with Australian payment and shipping modules including direct deposit.  This particular site owner specified a similar site that she liked the design of and I worked towards this while still giving the site it&#8217;s own flavour.  It is a really simplified design for this reason.</p>
<p>This website included product image alterations (stripping all to a pure white background) and adding the entire product range (60+ products) to the website database.</p>
<p>I also created a full set of unique buttons, which I have included a couple below:</p>

<p>Finally, I have added a module for Search Engine Friendly URL&#8217;s, to increase keyword popularity in search engines.</p>
