I’m the owner, artisan, and creative director
behind Smithmade Essentials
Smithmade Essentials is my artisan soap and candle brand that I launched in 2018. It began as a passion project and six years later, it’s developed into a small business with both retail and wholesale presence. This portfolio is a case study of this project.
Package Design
Prototypes and production. The challenges of creating packaging that stands out in a crowded market.
Photography
Product photos are the most important element of my online sales strategy, especially when the selling point is the product design.
Marketing
From retail to wholesale, fostering an audience that’s always excited to see what’s new.
