Aeolidia: About Us

Hello, I'm Arianne. I started Aeolidia and was soon joined by my best friend, Shoshanna. My husband, Chris, starting helping out and now none of us can imagine going back to work in an office!

We want to be a great starting point for you, so we try to cover most of what you'll need. We not only create your website, but we have Jena to help you market and advertise your site once it's up, and we've got Jen to take beautiful photos of your products. In addition to their work, we can help with almost anything that goes into setting up shop online!

We are three designers, with the amazing Lauren, and we have a gang of excellent illustrators to give your site a unique look.

Aeolidia is the Latin name of the shaggy mouse nudibranch, my favorite sea slug.
