The very first "Bex Loves..." has to go to the wonderful woman who designed this blog, Ashley at Little Leaf Photography & Design.
I have been reading Ashley's blog, Our Little Apartment, for over a year now and, at the risk of sounding a tad scary and stalker-ish, feel like we should be great friends. Ashley has a refreshingly realistic outlook on motherhood, marriage and life in general. Plus, her adorable son, Gabriel, makes my heart smile.
When I decided to actually go ahead and start this blog, I immediately knew that I wanted Ashley to be the designer. While I knew I would really like whatever she created, I never expected how incredibly easy it would be to work with her or how she would just "get" my vision. I started by creating a Pinterest board of colors I loved, patterns that caught my eye and designs I have used in that past (for wedding invitations, etc.). Ashley took a look at my ideas and came back with several header ideas, and while I loved them all, the one you see atop this page was exactly what I was looking for. From there we worked out the general layout of the website, tweaked a few sidebar issues and we were done. So easy!
I couldn't be happier with the outcome. The design feels clean, fresh, modern and...well, me.
My only regret? That Ashley doesn't live closer so I could utilize her photography skills as well -- seriously, check out her portfolio if you are in the Northeast Ohio area.
From the price, to the service, to the quality, to Ashley's overall friendliness and eagerness, I can't recommend Little Leaf Photography & Design enough.
