Sunny Side Creative

We love our Sunny Solopreneur projects where we get to tackle messaging, visual identity, and more for solo or small businesses! Thank you, Alyson and Nathan, for taking a leap into boldness with us!

Holy cow! We’re a finalist for the 2026 AMA Baltimore MX Awards! We’re looking forward to attending the upcoming and catching up with colleagues and peers alike. Let us know if you’ll be there!

We know budgets are constrained and not every event is worthy of a professional photographer. That’s why we’ve put together some tips on how to take better photos. Share with your front-line staff so we get some great quality images for your website, promotional brochures, and more!

We’re excited to connect with colleagues, friends, and collaborators at the upcoming Maryland Nonprofits Conference! Will we see you there? (We hope so!)

It was such an honor and a privilege to work with Elijah Cummings Youth Program in Israel (ECYP) in sharing their 25-26 annual report! We love the bold colors and the dynamic images, which do so much to tell the story of the organization’s impact — even before you get to the words!

Thank you for trusting us with your vision!

Company culture has become increasingly important as we’ve evolved as women — from an age perspective, from a community perspective, and yes, from a parenting perspective. In fact, it’s a huge reason why we created Sunny Side Creative.

If you’ve worked with us, you know we live and work by our values: collaboration, equity, purpose, quality, and truth. We infuse our communication, work product, and partnerships with these values, because we know they create a better experience for everyone involved.

What does company culture mean to you?

For a lot of nonprofit organizations, brand messaging is a nebulous thing. Yes, your mission, vision, and values are part of your brand message. But your brand message is much more than those three things.

Your brand message is the soul, voice, and heart of your brand. Through a clear and consistent brand message, people understand what you do, why they should support you, and how they can make a difference with you.

Not clear on what a brand message is or how to develop one? We’ve got you.

Putting together the copy and design for these rack cards was so much fun! We’ve been working with Gunpowder Valley Conservancy for several years now and each project we collaborate on deepens our knowledge and challenges us to come up with new ways to share information.

The rack cards support the three main pillars of GVC’s mission and we look forward to our next collab!

Your organization’s website is its introduction to the world. But while your social media channels and print materials get regularly updated, it’s easy to overlook keeping your website fresh, engaging, and useful. If you’re wondering if it’s time for a website refresh for your nonprofit organization, here are some key questions to ask!

Is It Time for a Website Refresh? • Sunny Side Creative If you’re wondering if it’s time for a website refresh for your nonprofit organization, here are some key questions to ask!

Fun fact: Elisa and Jess both got their bachelors at state schools with acronyms — hey UMBC and The College of New Jersey (TCNJ)! — and they share a college color in common: gold.

With gold in our shared history, it’s no surprise that we went for a company name that makes one think of sunny, golden days!
