Glad I did, because I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I had a last-minute commission that I needed to get printed, and this shop got it done with an incredibly quick turnaround. I sent in my request around noon, calling immediately after to request same-day service, and got the email that the order was completed about 20 minutes after I confirmed the final printing details. The total came out to just short of $16 (due to the rush fee) for five 5 x 7-inch prints, which works great for me. For technical folks like myself: the prints were done on 11 x 8.5-inch card stock with indicators for where I needed to cut (I opted to do it myself to avoid the service fee) and were handed to me in a plastic sleeve. They came out perfect, nothing to complain about. Customer service was great too. I presume I was chatting with Anna, who helped me fetch my prints as soon as I told her my order specifications. She was very kind and payment was quick and painless; the cost was exactly as quoted plus tax (which they warn you about in the emailing stage). Even when I called a couple days ahead to ask about their print details (ie. confirming that they use CMYK, PDF, and ~300 dpi for artwork), the individual on the phone was very direct and easy to speak with, handling all of my questions with ease. I would be happy to come back with any personal projects or future rush orders. Highly recommend!

The Yelp 5-star option says it all about Nicole: "Woohoo! As good as it gets!" Nicole has such a creative mind, can explain everything so intelligently (when working with design-illiterate and artistic-illiterate people like me!), and gets the site up and running. I needed Nicole to do some things for my wedding DJ site that were probably not that common: a questionnaire for the bride-to-be to fill out about all of the reception events, including introduction of the wedding party, parents, and all song choices. Nicole had to import a database listing all of my music (over 6,000 songs!) and made it searchable by artist OR song title. Brides could choose songs they wanted, and the list they selected was then sent directly to me via email. I should also add that this could be done in various sessions, and the list would be saved until ready to be sent. The questionnaire also came to me via email already populated with the bride's selections. I can't tell you how easy and helpful this was, and brides raved about it! I think it was actually fun for them and made it less of a task when planning their weddings. Nicole ROCKS!!! She is a true professional, and I wish I had just a smidgen of her patience! read more

I've been working with Smack Happy Design for almost 4 years. During this time Nicole's done an outstanding job for us - from web design and hosting, to refining our logo and putting together other graphics and branded material....Nicole gets the job done right for us. Nicole's also helped us with the graphics and UI for our mobile apps. She's thoughtful, understands her clients' individual needs and this gets reflected in the quality of her work. Nicole's also a good partner to have when sometimes you don't quite know what you want! She's forthcoming with ideas and suggestions. Internally, we talk of Nicole as if she's a part of our team! I'd heartily recommend Nicole and Smack Happy Design. read more

I have worked with Nicole twice on different projects and I recommend her highly. She designed and created new websites and logos for a preschool and a middle school's after-school program, and her work exceeded our hopes and expectations. For both projects, Nicole met with us to understand our needs, then she patiently iterated on designs, answered our questions, developed the products, and she continues to provide support, even proactively. The logos captured the essence of both organizations and the websites are easy to use. Nicole is a great designer and she's very efficient, responsive and professional. I look forward to working with her again sometime! read more

I've worked with Nicole on several projects over the last 4 years, and she never fails to impress me both with her quality of work and diligence. Nicole is a rarity in that she is an illustrator, a graphic designer and also an incredible web developer. She has the ability to listen to a vision or semi-developed plan, and bring it to life both creatively and practically (always in a timely turnaround). She can make WordPress do anything we've ever sought, and she can develop it in such a way that the end user can take on and own themselves. Finally, Nicole is flexible and dependable, working on her own or in a team and delivering on time and on budget. read more

I keep hearing rave reviews from everyone at school, from trustees to parents, about how the new website is the perfect front door for our school and does a great job reflecting our school's brand and culture. I am so grateful to have found Nicole and cannot wait to work with her again. read more
