ABOUT KRISTEN
Your small business partner at Creative Atmosphere
Hi, I’m Kristen Jerry. I’ve been designing websites and brands for small businesses in this part of southwestern Ontario since 2016 — from Woodstock and Ingersoll through Brantford and out to Port Dover and Simcoe.
I started Creative Atmosphere because I kept meeting business owners who were excellent at what they do and frustrated by everything around it. The website that never got finished. The logo that only exists as a JPG. The Facebook page nobody’s touched since 2022. None of it is the reason they got into business, and all of it quietly costs them work.
That’s the part I handle. Websites, branding, print and signage, social media, SEO, and ongoing hosting and care for more than 40 local businesses.
Running a business is hard enough on its own. When we work together, you get one person who knows your business.
What makes working with me different
One person, start to finish
You’ll deal with me from the first call through launch and after. I know your business, I remember the context from two years ago, and I’m the person who answers when something breaks the day before a launch.
Strategy before decoration
Every design choice has a reason behind it. Structure, messaging, and layout come before colours and fonts — because a site that looks good but doesn’t bring in work hasn’t done its job.
Local, and staying that way
I live and work here. I’ve built sites for businesses in Woodstock, Brantford, Port Dover, and Scotland, designed for Rural Oxford Economic Development Corporation and the Woodstock Accessibility Committee, and sponsored the Brant Battalion and the Woodstock Curling Club. This isn’t a market I’m targeting — it’s where I am.

OUR CORE VALUES
At the Heart Of Our Beliefs…
Strategic Creativity
Design isn’t decoration. Every website, brand, and campaign is built with a specific outcome in mind — usually more of the right enquiries and fewer of the wrong ones.
Collaboration & Support
Honest Advice
If I think you don’t need what you’re asking for, I’ll say so. Sometimes the answer is a Google Business Profile rather than a new website. I’d rather give you the real answer than the expensive one.
Website Design & Branding
Your business has a story to tell — let's make sure the right people hear it.
No more marketing that feels off-brand. No more designs that don’t deliver. Together we’ll build a website and a strategy that reflect what your business is actually capable of, so you attract the clients you want to work with.
