Human over corporate
Clear conversations, normal language and no performance of being a much larger agency.
Small studio.
Close attention.
Pocket Pollen exists because independent businesses deserve thoughtful design without needing an agency-sized budget, or an agency-sized meeting calendar.

Hello, I’m Shannon
The designer behind Pocket Pollen.
I started Pocket Pollen to give independent businesses access to thoughtful, characterful web design without the inflated process or price of a traditional agency.
You work directly with me from the first conversation to launch. I’ll ask useful questions, explain decisions plainly and care about the details, while keeping the project moving.
The aim isn’t to make your business look bigger. It’s to make the website feel as considered, capable and memorable as the real business already is.
Character over templates
The design begins with the business, rather than squeezing every client into the same layout.
Useful over impressive
Beautiful matters, but the website still needs to be easy to use and help customers take the next step.
Published over perfect
Careful decisions, focused feedback and forward motion. The goal is a strong website working in the real world.
A simple process.
No disappearing acts.
We talk
A friendly conversation about the business, customers and what the website needs to do better.
I design
You see a clear direction, give focused feedback and we shape the finished website together.
We launch
Everything is checked, your domain is connected and the new website goes out into the world.
Designed to be
remembered.
If that sounds like the kind of website your business needs, let’s talk.
