In September of 2025 I began working with Carly. I own a very small business but wanted my website to look professional and easy to use. Working with Carly was so easy. She is genuinely interested in helping your business grow while keeping your budget in mind. She directed me to cost effective and simple to navigate tools and taught me the importance of utilizing search engines optimization in the website, in blogs all in aid of growing my business. Last week a potential client told me that ChatGBT recommended my business and I was so grateful and encouraged that with Carly’s guidance, I am learning how to use this new technlogy to my advantage.

I had the pleasure of working with Carly in both our Jillian Harris and The Jilly Box marketing teams! Her exceptional organizational skills kept projects running smoothly, ensuring deadlines were met and details were never overlooked. She had a unique ability to craft compelling and well-written content for our brands. Carly brought an outgoing and charismatic energy that made collaborations effortless and enjoyable. She had a natural ability to connect with our audience and team members. Any team would be lucky to work with her!

I really enjoyed my photoshoot with Carly. She’s excellent with lighting and very good at capturing those little candid moments that make photos feel real. She made posing feel effortless and comfortable, which is usually a challenge for me. The final photos turned out amazing, and I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a talented photographer.

Until recently, I did not have the time to sort out how to best format and organize my website to reflect my new offerings in a way that clearly and compellingly speaks to my expertise. Carly helped me talk through my business vision and asked excellent questions to gain a full understanding of not only what it is I do but also why and who it is for. I was able to take her ideas and insights from our conversation and implement those directly into my website, resulting in greater user experience and better SEO. She then thoroughly went over all of my copy using my values as a filter, showing me where I could be clearer, simpler and more effective in my messaging. Her eagle eye for grammar, tense consistency and brand consistency are exemplary and it is a gift to have her eyes on anything you are creating. My business offerings AND my mind are clearer for it!

I reached out to Carly to update the product descriptions on my e-commerce website. Carly was thoughtful in her creative approach to the project and took the time to ask questions to really understand my vision and expectations. She is wonderfully professional, responsive, creative and of course an excellent copywriter. Carly is a delight to work with and I would recommend her services to anyone looking to take their copy up a notch!

Carly helped our team create a project plan in preparation of launching an alumni-focused podcast. She was instrumental in providing a tailored outline of requirements, including introducing our team to equipment needs, software recommendations and process guidance. Her consulting services helped us understand what would be required to move forward successfully, and her knowledge of the post-secondary landscape and diverse marketing tactics were key. As a result of working with Carly, we successfully launched a podcast [“Work It: A UVic Career Exploration Podcast”] that is now in its second year. I would absolutely recommend Carly as a podcast consultant for your next project.

Carly is an excellent photographer who made my first photo shoot experience feel fun and comfortable. She has a keen eye for shooting locations and poses, and was a genuine pleasure to work with. I’d recommend her work in a heartbeat!

Working with Carly was such a great experience. She has an amazing way of capturing those genuine, in‑between moments, the ones that actually feel like you. From the start, she made me feel completely comfortable in front of the camera (which is not something I usually say). She gives just the right amount of direction while still letting everything feel natural and easy. On top of that, she’s thoughtful, professional, and clearly cares about what she does. The final photos felt real, timeless, and perfectly true to the moment. I couldn’t recommend her more.

Carly, is such a pleasure to work with. Her calm demeanor makes you feel relaxed and confident in yourself right away. She brings forward such a bright energy and artistic lens. She is prompt and timely with sending the finished photos the very next day. I was so happy with them! Would highly recommend working with Carly!

Carly delivered an exceptional LinkedIn headshot experience from start to finish. Anticipating a rainy day, she thoughtfully suggested a clear umbrella, an inspired detail that added the eclectic, creative tone I was hoping for. She created a relaxed, light-hearted environment that made the session genuinely enjoyable and allowed my authentic self to come through. I wholeheartedly recommend Carly to anyone looking to refresh their professional image or gain a meaningful confidence boost.

Carly was nothing short of personable and professional! She came extremely prepared for the destination we chose. She made me feel comfortable throughout, and as this was my first photoshoot, it was a big confidence booster. I appreciated that she was able to find poses where I felt at ease, which came through in the final edited pictures. I can’t recommend Carly enough!
