Branding that finally feels like you.

Rooted in Story.

Drawn by Hand.

Designed to Last.

No more templates or visuals that fall flat. I create handcrafted branding for churches and small businesses who want to show up with intention — with design that reflects who they are, what they value, and where they’re going.

Your brand should help you connect, not confuse.

But right now? It feels a little scattered. A little off.
Like it doesn’t quite capture who you are — or what you're building.

You’ve got a purpose that runs deep — a story worth telling.
But your visuals aren’t doing it justice.
You’ve tried templates, DIY, maybe even a quick fix designer…
And still, you’re stuck with a brand that feels more like a placeholder than a reflection.

You’re ready for something better…
Not just pretty, but purposeful.
Not just trendy, but timeless.
Something that finally feels like you.

More Than a Logo. A Story Worth Telling.

Every project is a thoughtful mix of story, strategy, and craft — whether it’s a full brand identity, custom church graphics, or creative work beyond the box.

01. Brand Identity Design

For: Small businesses, non-profits, churches needing a fresh visual identity.

More than just a logo — this is where we build your whole visual world. I dig into your story, sketch by hand, and craft a brand identity that feels personal, purposeful, and built to grow with you. Logos, colors, type, brand guides — all designed to give you clarity and confidence every time you show up.

02. Church Creative Support

For: Churches needing ongoing design clarity & visual support (without hiring a full creative director).

Your message is worth more than clip art and last-minute Canva scrambles. I create sermon series artwork, seasonal campaigns, event graphics, and social templates that actually feel cohesive and thoughtful — designs that help your church connect and communicate beautifully.

03. Other Creative Projects

For: Businesses, non-profits, or churches needing one-off creative projects.

Have a creative idea that doesn’t fit in a box? Murals, merch, illustration, photography, even websites — this is the “let’s dream big” space. If it helps tell your story visually, I’m in. Together we’ll create something meaningful, unexpected, and completely yours — the kind of work that makes people stop and say wow.

A peek into some of my favorite projects — each one crafted to reflect my clients’ story, connect with their audience, and stand the test of time.

Selected Work

Nesconset Kids

Created a playful and welcoming kids’ ministry brand that connects with families and makes kids say, “This is church? I want to be here!”

New Village Church

Reimagined a 100-year-old church’s steeple logo into a modern mark that reflects both its history and its future, giving the congregation a visual identity they’re proud to share.

The Social Proof

  • David Moore - New Village Church

    Paxton was a delight to work with. She listened to my opinions, took notes, and provided a great logo and branding for our church. She exceeded my expectations and listened to what I wanted. She delivered a great brand, carefully explaining and showing her creative process for the end result. Would definitely use her again in a heart beat!

Your Story, Designed to Last

You’ve seen what’s possible — now imagine it for your brand.

Whether you’re leading a church, building a small business, or growing a ministry, your story deserves a visual identity that reflects your heart and connects with your people.

Because your story deserves more than something cookie-cutter. How we go from story to strategy to visuals that feel like you — and grow with you.

Handcrafted Work. Strategic Process.

01. Start with Story

We begin by uncovering the heart of your brand — your mission, message, and what makes you, you. Every strong brand starts with a clear story.

02. Clarify the Vision

Through moodboards, creative direction, and collaborative discovery, we craft a visual roadmap rooted in strategy and meaning.

03. Sketch with Intention

Before anything gets polished, I start by hand — doodles, sketches, and ideas that visually express what your brand is becoming.

04. Design the Details

From custom logos to supporting graphics, I refine and build a cohesive visual identity that captures both heart and clarity.

05. Refine & Reflect

We take time to tweak, adjust, and make sure every piece aligns — because your brand deserves to feel just right.

06. Deliver & Equip

You’ll receive everything you need to confidently show up in the world — backed by visuals that reflect your story and support your next chapter.

your brand should be custom,

not cookie-cutter

Hey, I’m Paxton — designer, illustrator, and the heart behind Paxton Creative Co.

What started as a passion project for my local church has grown into a creative studio built on purpose, clarity, and heart. I work with churches and small businesses that want branding with meaning — story-driven visuals that reflect who they are and what they’re building.

Every brand I create is handcrafted, rooted in story, and designed to last. No trendy templates. No copy-paste logos. Just thoughtful design, made by hand and built with strategy — so you can show up with confidence and clarity in the work you’re called to do.
