Nixon Creative Studio

I make websites that pull their weight.

For churches, schools, nonprofits, and small businesses, wherever you are.

Based in Cincinnati. Every site designed, built, and photographed byone person, start to finish.

Selected work

A few recent projects. Each one started with a conversation about what the organization actually needed, not which template to pick.

  1. Nonprofit

    Stone Steps 50K

    Twenty-three years of results in one place, with records the site calculates itself, so a record can never disagree with the finish behind it.

    A rebuild for Cincinnati's longest-running ultramarathon: every result since 2003, records calculated from them, and a 3D map of the course measured from a real run.

  2. School

    The Presbyterian Academy

    A credible front door for a brand-new school: clear catalog, real faculty, honest pricing.

    A launch site for a brand-new Reformed lay formation school that needed to explain what it is, who it's for, and how to enroll, all before the first cohort began.

  3. Small Business

    Reid Design

    Turns browsers into qualified consultation requests before they ever pick up the phone.

    A portfolio and booking site for an Indianapolis interior designer that turns browsers into qualified consultation requests before they ever pick up the phone.

How we work

Four steps, from the first conversation to launch day.

  1. 01

    Conversation

    We meet for an hour, in person or on video, and talk about what you actually need. No pitch deck, no agency theater. Just a working session that ends with a one-page brief we both agree on.

  2. 02

    Strategy

    I write the audience map, the page architecture, and the conversion path. You read it, push back, we revise. The strategy doc is the source of truth for every design choice that follows.

  3. 03

    Design and build

    Components, content, and pages built in the open. Preview links land in your inbox at every milestone so you can react early instead of seeing the whole thing for the first time at launch.

  4. 04

    Launch and follow-through

    We go live together, then I stay close for the first month to fix anything that surfaces. After that you own the site outright, with documentation and a simple way to reach me when something comes up.

Tell me what you are building.

I take a small number of projects each quarter. The earlier we talk, the better we can pace it together.
