WHAT I BUILT

The work, piece by piece

A maker storefront

Handcrafted barrel work presented like the premium product it is.

Kentucky story, told right

Bourbon-country heritage woven through design, copy, and imagery.

Product-first layout

The work is the hero: big imagery, clear pricing, easy ordering.

Simple to run

A store the maker can manage between builds, not a second full-time job.

Search-friendly foundation

Structured for the collectors and gift-buyers searching for barrel craft.

Built to grow

New pieces, new lines, and seasonal drops slot in without a redesign.

CRAFT DESERVES CRAFT

A handmade brand needs a handmade-feeling site

Mass-market templates flatten a maker brand. This build keeps the warmth of the workshop: real product imagery, honest copy, and a store that feels like meeting the artisan.

HOW IT CAME TOGETHER

From first call to launch

01

Listen first

Every project starts with the business, not the template.

02

Design and build

A premium WordPress site styled to the brand and fast on every device.

03

Shoot the visuals

Photography and video by the same person who builds the site.

04

Launch and support

Live, optimized, and supported for the long haul.

PROJECT DETAILS

The nuts and bolts

What platform runs the store?

WordPress and WooCommerce, the same stack behind my biggest client stores.

Can a small maker afford this?

Yes. Maker builds are scoped to the business, not to an agency rate card.

Who writes the story?

I draft it together. The voice stays yours; I make it sell.

Do you photograph products?

Yes, studio product photography is one of my favorite parts of maker projects.

MAKERS, THIS IS YOUR SIGN

Put your craft in front of buyers.

Tell me what you make and I will build the store that does it justice.

LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY + SOUTHERN INDIANA

Built in Louisville, for Louisville and Southern Indiana.

For a maker selling online, the useful next step is my ecommerce website design in Louisville, with a storefront shaped around the products.
