Church Creative
Design that makes people stop, look and show up.
Brand identity, series art, campaigns and video for churches and ministries, from a studio that has sat on your side of the table.
Selected work
Every piece started with a decision.
Not a gallery. Six projects with the ask and the call we made, so you can judge the thinking, not just the finish.
Vivid Church Series identity
Acts: A Faithful Witness
- The ask
- A multi-week study that needed one identity across LED walls, screens, social and print.
- The call
- A weathered map of the first-century world under a single blackletter wordmark. The map carries the texture, the mark carries the series, and the system scales from 1920x1200 walls to a 9:16 story without losing either.

Words From the Last Supper
- The ask
- Key art for a 7-part Easter series that had to feel weighty without feeling heavy.
- The call
- One woodcut-style illustration of the table, the 7 sayings set as Latin headings in a condensed display face. A single image carried the whole series, so every week felt like a chapter of the same book.
Core key artCitizens Church Brand launch
A church named for its city
- The ask
- Introduce a church whose whole idea is belonging to the place it's in.
- The call
- A tall wordmark set against photography of their own streets, not stock. The launch grid reads as a love letter to the neighborhood first and a church second, which is the point.

Beautifully Broken
- The ask
- An Easter invitation for 2 services that would stand out in a feed full of lilies and sunrises.
- The call
- Shattered glass and a face, script against heavy sans. Built as a 3-panel Instagram grid so the feed itself became the poster, with times and services locked into the lower band.

Middle School and Back to School
- The ask
- Launch a new middle school ministry and kick off the school year with one system a volunteer team could keep running.
- The call
- A bright illustrated world, bold hand-drawn type, a fixed palette and a launch-date badge. The same set worked on LED screens, social and print, and a volunteer could make the next piece without us.

Heart for the House
- The ask
- An annual giving campaign that needed to feel alive, not like a pledge card.
- The call
- Glitched gradients and scan lines behind a clean stacked wordmark. Energy from the texture, trust from the type, and a carousel format so the story unfolds one swipe at a time.
CarouselHow a project runs
Four steps. You see the thinking at every one.
No big reveal at the end. You see directions before we build, and you know what week it is.
01
Brief
One conversation and a written brief back to you: audience, message, formats, dates, what done looks like.
Week 102
Directions
2 or 3 real directions, shown in situ, with the reasoning. You pick one; we don't blend them into mush.
Weeks 2 to 303
Build
Every format, every size, built from the chosen direction. Reviews at set points, not surprise PDFs.
Weeks 3 to 604
Launch
Files organized, standards written, your team trained to keep it going. We stay on for the first weeks live.
