- Dominique Dunlop, Marketing Strategist

“I could not be happier and more pleased with the Website VIP Intensive program and process with Samantha, and Lemon and the Sea! I set aside the designated day, sent all the information requested, and was excited to start the revamping of our business website. To my surprise, there were minimal additional questions, several proofs, and was amazed at the transformation! Samantha’s experience, talent and knowledge of I wanted and needed, was beyond exceptional.  She truly exceeded my expectations!  In addition, I know Samantha is available for any additional questions, suggestions and updates.” 

- Theresa Morris, Realtor

“I had a website that I felt didn’t portray ME at all. The information was there, but the look and feel had a lack of continuity. I really didn’t use my site or send people to it. I honestly had no idea how to describe what I really wanted my site to be. Throughout the process, I never felt alone. The feedback and suggestions were SO appreciated. And, I never felt afraid to ask questions or request even little changes. I love that Samantha has a very organized process, but that she was willing to work with my needs. I know that anyone I recommended to her would be well taken care of and would get the same type of service and attention that I did. Anyone who is nervous about finding someone who they can trust with their business vision should just book a call with Samantha and they will see why they should hire Lemon and the Sea!”

- Stacie Hayes, Bookkeeper


“Samantha was amazing to work with. Our new website is the picture of what we do and the reason we do it. It is exactly what I hope our customers see when they think of shopping with us and investing in the work we are doing and it is an amazing platform for growing our non-profit work.”

- Founder, Non-Profit

“You can achieve a beautiful and functional website relatively quickly and without hassle. We needed a functional pricing page that was also aesthetically pleasing and Samantha came highly recommended from an industry peer I have much respect for. For a lot of people, including me, designing a website is really intimidating. Samantha made the process so easy, and I was shocked at how little time it took to come together!”

- Whitney Bowen, Videographer

“Samantha is honest, dependable, and knowledgeable. I trust her implicitly to ‘do the right thing’ and that's why I continue to count on her (year after year!) to help me manage my website, blog, new products, permissions, SEO, email lists, and more. I've recommended several people to Samantha and continue to do so. Thanks for all you do!!”

- Michele Ronsen, UX Researcher

“Price was my big hesitation in having a site built, but I’ve spent hours listening to Samantha’s podcast and I know she knows what she’s doing. As someone who struggles to make time to focus on my own company, it was great partnering with Samantha. I was impressed with the systems Samantha has in place to make the process so simple for her clients, including her communication. And I love the final design! Although I haven't "officially" launched, I have already got compliments from friends and potential clients about how nice the site looks.”

- Rachael Jamison, Podcast Editor


“I loved working with Samantha. She is so talented at what she does. She knew things about my business that I needed before I even know I needed them. She walked alongside me as I really defined my brand as well as crafting the website. She was so quick to respond to my questions. The whole process was transparent and simple. I’m so grateful for Samantha and her talent.”

- Nicole Burchett, Photographer

“Before working with Lemon and the Sea, I found myself spending way too much time trying to build my own site – time that could have been used moving the needle in other areas of my business. I hired Lemon and the Sea because I felt aligned with her vision to help other female entrepreneurs communicate the best version of their business to the world. Having Samantha's expertise and knowledge really helped me stay on deadline with launch day. Her quick communicative style was extremely helpful and she always made sure to get back to me, no matter how small the question. I would recommend her service for all those who are interested in streamlining the process while getting quality product.”

- Nikkia Jackson, Product Designer

"By delegating my website design to a seasoned professional like Samantha, I was able to focus on other things like growing my business and generating more leads. Before we worked together, I liked the idea of collaborating with another woman entrepreneur and after reading about Samantha, I felt like I knew her and that Lemon and the Sea wasn't just a brand, but a real person. The on-boarding process was uber professional and very organized. I immediately knew I was working with a seasoned professional, someone who has it together and was going to do what they said they would do. She is a professional who knows her stuff and makes the process of building a website mostly effortless.”

- Melissa Hunsberger, Local Business Owner

"Working with Samantha at Lemon and the Sea has been such an incredibly positive experience! I was struggling with web design and brand positioning and I knew web design was NOT in my own wheelhouse and that I needed help! When I found Samantha I was SO relieved! She took all of my crazy ideas, needs, and wants, and filtered them into a workable and manageable project, that I am now so proud of! She is professional, knowledgeable, patient, organized, and she truly CARES that you are satisfied with the final results!”

- Kamice Kellum, Photographer

"I knew my website needed an update because I was getting unqualified leads and didn't feel confident promoting my website, but I was uncertain of the process and what working with a designer would require from me. I didn't have time to look at every revision, so I loved working with Samantha because she used video to walk through design decisions and give feedback, which was easier and took less time than typing out my responses. Since working together, I've seen more clients, I feel more confident about my website, and I've seen an increase in newsletter subscribers. I don't have website shame anymore!"

- Carli Fernandez, Travel Agent

"One of the wonderful things about working with Samantha is that she is extremely organized and timeline oriented. You will never have to wait on her to get a project done. She's very accessible and makes it easy to schedule phone calls and meetings with her about your ongoing project and goes above and beyond to make sure you are happy with the progress. I also really appreciated all of the education she provided about managing a website."

- Nicole Brantingham, Event Planner

“There were a few issues with my website that I couldn't manage on my own and needed to hire out. Yet I was struggling to find someone who would do light projects instead of a full blown site. Samantha was prompt to reply, professional in our interactions and proficient - I knew that I could trust her to do the work she said she could do in the timeframe she said she could do it. Since my project was so small and specific, I loved that she communicated so well and was efficient since I was on a much tighter timeline than I'd initially anticipated. Samantha doesn’t fit the stereotypes of the artist/creative who struggles with deadlines and completing work. She is the opposite: organized, efficient and prompt in the delivery of everything. I really appreciated that after working with a number of creatives lately who did succumb to that freelancer stereotype.”

- Ashley Gartland, Business Coach

“Samantha was wonderful to work with. She’s detail orientated, organized, and dependable. Our work together began with a series of questionnaires, which were detailed and insightful; in fact, they helped me clarify what I wanted in my own mind so I could more clearly communicate what I wanted and needed from her. After she began to build my website, she kept me informed, and I watched what she did, step-by-step. During that process, she continued to consult with me about my likes and dislikes, and she was never impatient when I made requests or ask for changes. We communicated regularly by phone and email. She answered all my questions promptly, and she kept to the timeline she promised. Samantha delivers what she promises. I highly recommend her.”

- Candice Prentice, Author

“My website was up and running quickly so I could benefit from the new site design. The clarity of Samantha's communication and rapid turnaround on questions and feedback gave me the confidence she would take care of all the details. She was willing to do her homework to solve any issues, and really listened well to feedback while providing her own input and expertise to collaborate towards a great finished product.”

- Jennifer Levy, Interior Designer

"I needed to update my website, but didn't have time to design and was getting frustrated with the tech. Samantha was organized and so kind and easy to work with! My website is now easier to update after Samantha set up templates for me."

- Elizabeth Henson, Business Coach

“I knew what kind of business I wanted, I just didn't know how to represent it visually. Samantha took the time to understand the type of business I have. I like the fact she asked questions and I believe this helped her to be able to design a website that reflected my personality in a professional and personal way. Samantha made what seemed like an overwhelming task enjoyable. With each step of the process, I was able to not only see the vision come together, it actually helped me to become more focused and excited about what I wanted my website and business to become. In light of the fact I did not feel confident about how I was originally representing my business, I struggled to even promote it. Since the redesign of the website, it has given me a renewed sense of pride in what I do.”

- Monica Pape, Local Business Owner

“It looks great—thank you! Excited to see how SEO starts to shift.”

- Becky Higginson, Chiropractor

“It was great working with Samantha. I greatly appreciate her thoroughness, knowledge, and attention to detail.”

- Cheryl Pallant, Energy Healer

“I went in fully trusting that you had all the knowledge and skills to make the website happen - and I was right! You were so quick to respond and so supportive when I was struggling at any point. You always answered my questions and were calm and helpful throughout! And of COURSE I am OBSESSED with my website! You incorporated so many elements I could never have dreamed of and I have loved showing it off!”

- Devin Lee, Business Coach
