Choose Your Style!
I have a comprehensive skill set that is perfectly matched to suit your needs as a business or organization. Whether you need a complete overhaul of your branding and website, or a simple brochure design to match your current identity - I can provide a tailor fit solution exclusively for you.
I work with the latest technology, software, and equipment and am constantly seeking to provide the best possible quality of work and service.
Because I work on my own I am free to work closely with you in a one-on-one partnership. When you communicate with me there is no middle man or executive hierarchy to impede the process. You'll receive top-notch quality and direct communication with your designer, developer, and company owner all at the same time.

There are plenty of designers out there to choose from, but very few who can match our high standards. We build clean layouts and user interfaces, providing an enjoyable and intuitive experience for your customers from start to finish. We offer designs from scratch, or a complete re-fresh of your existing website.
My development process begins with a significant amount of pre-production planning. I find that quality plans produce quality results in a fraction of the time. My process goes something like this:
I have substantial experienc building e-commerce websites for online shops, registration payments, downloadable-product stores, and more. Ask for details as each scenario requires unique approaches.
Several companies make guarantees and use "black hat" SEO tricks to send more web trafic your way for monthly fees. However, these companies rarely deliver what they promise and often result in your website being banned from search engines like Google.
I follow a proven methodology of optimizing your website to be search engine friendly. My websites are are built from the ground up with clean, semantic code and best practices for SEO. My websites typically achieve better search rankings because of this. There are no monthly listing fees and your website will be fast-loading and accessible.

It is imperative that your visual identity does not understate your quality, professionalism, edge, or desirability. My stunning identities communicate your message with precision in print and online. If you require top-of-the-line identity design, I work with specialists who work for Fortune 500 companies across the country.
Whether you need business cards, letterheads, marketing folders, promotional fliers, mailings, or custom brochures and booklets, I create rich, compelling products.
I am an avid photographer and can provide photographic services for websites, product photograpy, events, and weddings. Photography goes hand-in-hand with website design and the quality of imagery make a significant difference in the aesthetics of any design.
Visit my photography Website“Ben designed my website at www.jangallagher.net . Just look at it and you'll see what a great designer he is! He acted as a true partner with me in the process from concept to finished product. He came up with innovative solutions when I had only the vaguest idea of how I wanted my materials presented. He kept in constant touch, showing me pages in process and revising and re-revising till my site was perfect. I highly recommend Ben for both as a graphic artist and as a web developer.”

“Ben is excellent to work with. As a project manager, I work with tactical and strategic issues on a daily basis. Ben has the same attributes for a good project manager. Ben created the web site for my business. He talked to me about the business and what I was hoping to gain from the site. He gathered my requirements and then presented a professional looking web site that I am proud to show my customers, and would-be customers. I would definitely reccomend Ben to anyone needing a web designer.”
