Heartfelt and Thoughtful
ILLUSTRATION, PHOTOGRAPHY AND DESIGN
A windswept and multi-passionate creative
Welcome. I’m Sarah, the Up the Hill Creative.
Full of ideas, surrounded by chaos, creating in any spare moment I get.
Creating makes me happy, as does the sound of my children’s laughter, visiting fantails and those unexpected memories that make you smile. I’m a windswept and multi-passionate creative, offering heartfelt and thoughtful illustration, photography and design services.
I’m a seasoned graphic designer by trade, thrown into a bit of marketing co-ordination and social media management. I love layout design - documents and websites, branding and all the little details. I’m drawn to illustration and photography, creating with sentimentality and nostalgic stories, and designing with purpose and meaning.
Lets make something beautiful.
Contact me today to discuss how we could work together.
