Welcome to The Après Club!
Hold my cocktail We're a couple of wild, wild women running a small but spicy branding and website studio in Bend, Oregon. Originally bonded over our shared love for snowboarding and adrenaline-pumping situations, we discovered that we also have a mutual passion for extraordinary brands and exceptional design. Our curiosity is like a compass, always pointing us to uncharted peaks and fresh ideas.
We're kind of like yin & yang of concept and design. Our collab is like one super brain! We are excited to guide businesses through building brands that are not just lovable but embody their goals, ambitions, and values.
With us, you might not reach the summit first or fastest, but you can bet your butt you'll have a helluva time getting there!
Finely crafted branding from Bend, Oregon
Co-Founder / Art Director / UI & UX Designer
Jessie, a fierce mountain girl, grew up in Crested Butte, Colorado, where mountain life met a love for art, design, and photography. She earned her BFA in Graphic Design from Western State and has since made her mark in print, editorial, and UI/UX design. In Bend, she’s brought her creative eye to brands like Dr. Jolly, Source Weekly, Worthy Brewing, and Columbia Distributing.
Co-Founder / Copywriter / Web Designer
Wilma spent her twenties chasing big adventures—and somehow also squeezed in a Master's in Communications and Marketing along the way. Her curiosity (and carry-on) has taken her across Europe and North America, working with global giants like Microsoft, action sports brands, and ambitious start-ups. But what really makes her tick is creating brands that make people feel something.
How we get from idea to a brand
Onboarding
Let’s make sure we’re the right fit. We’ll walk you through our process, cover contracts, service agreements, and a background questionnaire to make sure everything is aligned and you’ve chosen the right package for your needs.
Brandworkshop
Brand workshops get the ideas flowing and often lead to ‘Aha!’ moments, where clients uncover new insights about their business. These workshops lay the foundation for our design process, ensuring your brand reflects who you are and aligns with your vision and goals.
Concept
In the concept phase, we synthesize insights from our brand workshop to develop a strategy that authentically represents your business and resonates with your audience. This is where your brand begins to take shape.
Design & Refine
Once we’ve locked in the winning idea, it’s time to roll up our sleeves. With a clear vision in place, we’re committed to crafting a brand that will knock your socks off. After all the groundwork, the final design will truly reflect your business.
Launch
After all the hard work of aligning, designing, and refining, your brand is ready to melt people’s hearts and take over the world. Your brand now a cohesive entity that looks incredible and has solid things to say. Let’s go!
