“Blue Iris Webdesign designed and implemented my beautiful and outstanding web site for my fine art business. Working with Nina was a pure pleasure, as she mindfully took the time to understand the nature and feeling of my artwork, and then reflected on it to create an artistic and technically perfect website, which is beautiful and original. Nina is very talented, works with an open mind, and is always on time. I continue to work with Nina to update my site, and I highly recommend her for her talents and technical expertise.”

“Blue Iris Webdesign has made a difference in two critical areas – First, she was able to breathe life into a rather bland website while maintaining the brand identity and an appropriate look and feel for an Investigation firm. Secondly, through her advice, tips, and continuous adjustments, Nina has improved our visibility on some of the most popular search engines, moving NEICS to the top of the list.”

“After a false start with another designer, I was wary of who I chose to try again to build my website. Nina allayed my fears by stating she would keep designing until I was happy. Sold! Nina was receptive to my ideas and goals, and systematically addressed them all. She was organized and intent on helping me become self-sufficient to update my site and my blog. I am thrilled with the outcome and recommend her highly.”

“NETCO Construction Project Managers retained Blue Iris Web Design to do a “makeover” of the NETCO website. Nina Johannessen worked with both the marketing and project management personnel of NETCO to create a entirely new look to the website incorporating both the Project Management and the Specialty Construction Divisions into one fully integrated and seamless website. We are thrilled with the results, both in terms of the graphic design of our new website as well as the information content. Nina was instrumental in helping our company personnel complete this website in a relatively short period of time, provide important advice on content, and complete the work for a very reasonable price. We look forward to working with Nina to maintain the site as well as use Nina’s skills to help us use the site as an important marketing tool for NETCO.”

“Nina is a joy to work with. A truly “nice” person who actually cares about my product. In my situation, I designed the basic web pages but Nina put them all together and was able to implement any idea I had whether it was adding video clips or adding audio files and music examples to appear simultaneously, she made it happen exactly as I envisioned it. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone needing a professional web site at a fair price.”

“Blue Iris Web Design was recommended to me when I was looking to re-design my baby accessory e-commerce website. After the initial conversation with Nina I knew I was in good hands and that my new site would become a successful extension of our brand to our on-line customers. The whole re-designing process was informative, creative and not half as daunting as I initially thought it was going to be. Nina asked constructive questions, made very helpful comments and worked hard to make our “wish list” a reality. I have recommended her to other small business owners like myself who are in need of a skilled web-designer that has a strong creative eye and a great easy-going personality!”

“As a delighted client of Blue Iris Webdesign, I can attest to the talent, energy and judgment of Nina. I found her to be as much a mentor as a designer, stimulating my ideas on what I needed and wanted in a website.

“I wholeheartedly recommend hiring Nina of Blue Iris Webdesign. Nina is a professional of the highest standards.
When I first contacted her, I needed the website within a short period of time. Nina worked day and night and delivered an excellent job on time. Moreover, working with her was a delight. Her ability to listen and fulfill requests is exceptional. She listens carefully to the client’s wishes, and works hard to realize them on the page.
She demonstrated excellent technical ability, figuring out every need and problem, including explaining everything to me so that I would be comfortable and familiar with my website. Nina combines technical knowledge with beautiful creativity. Her designs are attractive in color and balance; she makes excellent suggestions and offers options, giving the client room to make choices. Nina works with great ethics and professionalism: as a client one always knows how the work is progressing and what is expected at every stage. She is clear, to the point, professional, and time conscious, as well as available for any request or question. Nina’s high standards are manifested in how detail oriented she is, from the technical, to the design, to the contents.
I couldn’t have found a better person to work with – I truly enjoyed the process of building the website with Nina – and I love the product she delivered. I receive comments constantly about the website’s beauty and ease of navigation.
Moreover, I believe that most of our success is due to the website: people tell me they find us through the search engines, and that is due to Nina’s work in optimizing our visibility in the web. I can’t thank Nina enough for
all she has done for our organization.”

“As a businessman I’ve found that the most important part any business is to align yourself with people you can trust and know that they’ll be there when you need them. The first thing I did when I started my business 2 1/2 years ago was to be sure my company had the right image and so developing our name, logo and website were on the top of my list. I was able to accomplish that by working with Nina at Blue Iris Webdesign and since we began working together my company has exceeded all our initial goals. Nina took the time to understand my business and how to present it. It’s been a pleasure since day one.”

“I run a seasonal sports camp business that relies heavily on repeat customers. Blue Iris Webdesign has designed a dynamic site that provides customers reason to re-visit. Capturing the friendly atmosphere of my camp and the promise I make of delivering on the service I offer are essential to attracting new customers. The new Blue Cheetah Lacrosse Camps website does just this and allows parents considering various camps to feel comfortable sending their children to mine. I absolutely count Blue Iris Webdesign as one of the key factors in the successful growth of my camp.”

“I’ve worked with Nina on several complicated design projects for my clients and for my own website. She brings creative flair and organizational insight to every project, no matter how dramatic or how simple. Plus she is resourceful, fast, careful and – what could be more important? – fun!”

“Nina is an excellent web designer. She listened to our needs and created a site that was exactly what was requested with a few extras which are highly valued. The site is more than we had hoped for and was at a fraction of the cost of other estimates we had received. She delivered on-time and worked with us for 30 days to ensure we knew how to make changes and stay on top of things. She has also be most helpful answering questions and helping with a few concerns after the 30 day period was over. I would highly recommend Nina for future projects and those looking for an exceptional site with a limited budget. I hope to work with her again in the future.”

“My experience with Blue Iris Webdesign has been great. Nina was able to easily understand the marketing needs of my business and the interests of my website’s audience. Her design reflected my logo and other materials that had already been created, even though they were created by someone else. Nina was also very effective at getting me to provide the information and copy that she needed for the site, in other words, she kept the project moving. I highly recommend her, both as a designer and a project manager who can create a very effective site in a timely manner.
