Anne O'Brien
Director of Catholic Education, Ontario Catholic Trustees’ Association
It was a real pleasure working with Lori in designing a logo and stationary for my clinic. I was impressed how she took the time to search things prior to starting her design process. She listened very carefully to the image I was aiming to project through my logo and was very patient in accommodating all my requested modifications. I was very happy with the result. Thank you Lori for being so creative and for a great job!
Dr. Baker Akad, DMD, MMSc
Owner, Fergus Orthodontics
I highly recommend Lori for website design. She listens to your ideas, asks questions so she can understand your business and what is important to you, then works her craft to produce a website your customer can easily navigate and find all the information they need. She will work with you until your website is perfect. I am very happy with the final result and comforted knowing she will make any updates that are needed to my site.
Yvonne Maschke
Owner, All Occasions Signs
When I met Lori, I handed her a hand-drawn gerbera daisy as my logo, explained to her my vision for 'A Thing of Beauty, Seasonal Designs by Del' and stated emphatically that I had no idea how to use any form of social media. In return, I received the warm smile of a new friend and the confident reassurance of a true professional that I was in good hands. Endless questions on my part, long hours and an ever-creative professional presence on Lori's part brought us to a logo, business card, letterhead, notepads and woo commerce website that I love and captures my vision. Working with Lori is like having a guardian angel on your shoulder at all times. She's always following up and is a constant, positive presence behind the scenes. Thank you Lori!
Del Clarkson
Creative Director/Owner, A Thing of Beauty
Exceptional artistry and the most spectacular designs, 10/10. I am so grateful to have Lori in my life. She has rebranded our business from logo to street front signage; business cards and everything between. She has rebuilt our website and organized our social media apps. Our website is SEO friendly and finally getting the hits we needed. Speaking as someone who is not social media savvy, Lori has been so generous and patient while working with me on these projects and continues to be an amazing resource and support for me on a regular basis. If you are ever looking for someone to connect with you and your vision for your business, someone who is a professional and expert in the industry, and someone who is always accessible and reliable to work with, then Lori at Graphic a la Design is who you need to work with.​
Michelle Aceto, RPN​

Lori is amazing. She understands the psychology behind design and layout, and how to capture the essence of what you are looking to achieve in your design. Honest, devoted, passionate and caring she puts her heart and soul into each creation along with her incredible knowledge and expertise. We appreciate her patience and the way she guided us in the right direction. We ADORE our logo and her pricing is beyond reasonable! We highly recommend her and so grateful to have been referred to her.

Thank you Lori, for all of your hard work, we love you and are forever grateful!

Lori, thank you so much for all of your patience and support with all of the projects you have done on our behalf. We are always so thrilled with the final designs, but even more, we appreciate the way you work with us through your creative process to get things exactly right. It has become a great professional collaboration.
Michael Pautler
Executive Director, Institute for Catholic Education (ICE)
We were so thrilled with our new logo! I can't thank Lori enough! From hearing what it was we wanted and where we wanted to use it, Lori exceeded our expectations. The logo chosen (and she provided several different options), was so colourful and transfers beautifully! We can't wait to get staff jackets made and create our new letterhead! Thank you Lori, you truly helped us to make a difference, one family at a time (esthetically at minimum)!
Vicky Caruana
Executive Director, Starfish Parent Support Program
More than 5 stars are needed for this review. We are so grateful to Graphic a la Design for making our vision come to life. Lori is the most phenomenal person, she has treated us like family from the moment we met. Her knowledge and experience make her one of the most brilliant people we have encountered. Lori listens well and her attention to detail is what sets her apart. We told her our story once, explained our concept and she brought our vision to life. There are almost 200,000 words in the Oxford Dictionary and though there are many that can describe Lori, there is a single word that encapsulates her brilliance, attitude and personality. Thank you, Lori, for all your support and for everything you've done and continued doing for us. #beyondgrateful.
Haroun and Shamiema
Owners, Plan B Handmade Burgers, Boerewors and Braai
We had learned about Lori and Graphic a la Design from friends and clients who are also business owners — whenever the topic of best graphic or website designer came up, Lori’s name did too. Naturally, when we needed a new logo for LBD Academy, we reached out to Lori for a quote. Graphic a la Design's prices were reasonable, so we left a deposit, and before we knew it, we had 6 pages of logo proofs to choose from. That was two years ago. Since, Lori has totally rebranded us. Lori does it all, from stationary to course manuals and certificates, to managing our social media and building a new 'LBD Academy' and 'Lashes By Design Lash Bar and Beauty Boutique' website with the best organic SEO that we could hope for. She is approachable, sincere, up to date with digital and print marketing techniques, gets along with our staff, and even refers clients to us or tags us on social media. The best part is that she’s always collecting data, tweaking, and making us more visible to our clients — most of the time, we don’t even know she’s there working in the background. She just is, and we are thankful for that.
Kim Stathopoulos
Owner, LBD Academy and Lashes By Design Lash Bar and Beauty Boutique
In reaching out to Graphic a la design and speaking with Lori, I knew right away this was the company I was going to use for my website. Lori’s passion to create was very evident through our initial conversation. After speaking with a few designers at different companies I know graphic a la design was the company for me. She was extremely helpful through the entire process making everything as stress free as possible, providing me with templates to help organize my files and lots of suggestion to enhance my initial vision. Not only did she create an incredible website, she had proofed all my wording and made multiple suggestions on how to make my verbiage more captivating to the customers, and how to target SEO and Google rankings. Graphic a la design is an amazing company with great drive and passion, I highly recommend them for high quality and affordable web design.
Mark Prata
Owner, Toronto Ink Tattoos
Working with Lori was a great experience from start to finish. She listened to my needs, explained the process and exceeded my expectations in a very tight time frame. I have confidently referred her to colleagues.
Jennifer Pearce
Broker of Record/Owner, RE/MAX Rouge
For years, I wanted a logo that was mine that reflected my business, my passion, my personality. When I saw the logo, I knew Lori was the person to 'revamp' my website. Professional, clean, respectful of my needs, for my industry. Is there a word more powerful than grateful? Do not even hesitate. Hire her team. Now! Not tomorrow. Now!
Kristine Dandavino
Owner, Oshawa Piano and Vocal Academy
I was referred to Graphic a la Design by a leading-edge business professional that knows the world of websites and social media extremely well. Armed with such a formidable recommendation, I expected the best. And that's exactly what I got. My embarrassment over knowing nothing about this field was quickly set aside by Lori, as she delved into the process. Because of Graphic a la Design, I'm not exaggerating when I say that, I now have the very best website in my field. It's informative, articulate, lively, world-class and boasts pizzazz to no end! Thank you, Lori!
Sandra Benns

If I could give Lori at Graphic al a Design 10 stars, it still wouldn't be enough. She's been with me every step of the way over the past three years as we've worked tirelessly in bringing my product to life. It's exceedingly rare in today's 'me first' commercial landscape that one is presented an opportunity to establish a fruitful business relationship with a service provider of Lori's unsurpassed professionalism and expertise. She is refreshingly genuine in her approach and truly cares about the needs of her clients. No one works harder in ensuring that deadlines are met and expectations are fulfilled. If it weren't for Lori's ongoing guidance and support, my business wouldn't be where it deserves to be, which is a direct reflection of her dedication and commitment to making dreams come true. Thank you, Lori for making my dream a reality!! #Loridreammaker
Brad Smith
Creator and President,
Max Stax Gaming Corp.
Let me preface this review with I have been working with Lori since around 2001 when she created a logo for my tutoring business when I rebranded and grew. I used that logo until not too long ago when I closed that business to open a new one. Since then she designed a new logo for our Uniquely Whynot business, and then when the business evolved from just 3D printing to selling Cricut craft supplies and running classes, she helped us bring that vision to life and tweaked the logo to suit the new venture. She even designed another logo recently for a brand I am working on. It's like Lori takes my ramblings and gets right in my head because she always delivers. I always exclaim, yes, that's exactly what I had floating around in my head. Be careful working with Lori though because you'll grow to love her work and her! She is a lovely person and truly cares about the brands she works with. You won't be disappointed.
Shelley Whynot

I am so glad I stumbled across Lori and Graphic a la Design! She was able to help us bring our company to the 21st century with a modified logo and a brand new website.

She’s always responsive and reliable and very reasonable in her quoting.

I was very impressed with the time and energy Lori put into developing my brand — I don't know how she does it! Her skills and creativity far exceeded my expectations, not only was her work of a superior standard, but she went the extra mile with every little detail of my print and online media before my launch. I love it all, from my logo to gift certificates and business cards, she truly nailed it! Without a doubt, I will be working with her again on my next big idea!
Ann Williams
Owner, Makingublush Organics Beauty Bar
For two years (three semesters), I had the privilege of being in Lori’s communications/design and marketing classes. Hands down, I love her design and typography philosophies and attention to detail — oh, the detail. Who would have thought that I would ever need a business card? Well after 4 years at university, it was suggested by a professor that I did. Naturally, I reached out to Lori. We spoke for 5 minutes, she asked a few questions then sent me six proofs — the challenge was choosing just one. Without a doubt, I would recommend Lori to anyone who's looking to raise the bar for their identify or brand!
Johanna Daniel
The branding Lori created is absolutely beautiful, it's exactly what I had in mind but didn't know it at first. I just love it all, from the logo to social media, to business cards, bookmarks, letterhead, contract forms, post cards and pens — the website is my favourite. I am so excited to start my new adventure and because of Lori, the Little Peace of Mind launch was perfect. Throughout the process, Lori has become a friend and I will most definitely recommend Graphic a la Design to others​​​.

Kim Godwill
CREATOR, MY WEEKEND GIRLFRIEND GETAWAYS
We reached out to Lori after feeling frustrated with our previous designer's shortcomings. Lori responded immediately and provided a quote that we felt was completely reasonable without undervaluing her ability. She has been such a joy to work with, and really took our ideas and brought them to life only better than we envisioned. So far, she has designed mailers for our orthodontic offices and beautiful Christmas calendars with a shockingly fast turn around time. We plan to work with Lori on every project required in the future. If you value honesty, talent, great attitude and fast turn around time, then Graphic a la Design is for you. The best part about Lori is that her passion is evident, and passion drives success in our book. When you receive your pieces from her, you receive her love for beautiful design in tangible form.
Laura Thomas

The quality of work she produces is outstanding — we continually receive compliments regarding the professional design work from prospective and current sponsors of our event. Lori truly is a professional, we highly recommend Graphic a la Design for your next project; you won’t regret it.​

She genuinely cares about our spa, making herself available for any questions our staff has about marketing and communications. She is extremely creative and professional; her work is outstanding. We've had a great response from the branding she created from our logo to storefront signage; website, inner-office forms and social media; she’s doing it all. She even works with our staff creating Facebook live-feeds and contests, YouTube videos from the footage they send her as well as spa and product photography. She is data-driven, sending us monthly analytic reports and comparables, and stays up to date with our marketing prospects. We highly recommend Lori without reservation.

I couldn't sing the praises of Lori loud enough. A huge help getting my business off the ground. Great work, efficient in every aspect of the word and a truly amazing resource for branding/building your business. If I could give her 10 stars, I would. Thank you for everything Lori!
