My clients say…
We definitely found the right designer for our needs when we contacted Anne. She met with us at our place when it was convenient for us. She was able to clearly explain to us what was involved in setting up a website and then went methodically through the process with us. We truly enjoyed Anne’s relaxed but efficient manner, her great communication skills, and her follow up support has been superb. We are so happy with our new website and highly recommend Anne to anyone who requires her skills.
“I have worked with Anne for many years as my main graphic designer and website designer. She has an amazing skill of using her design expertise to deliver effective layout, and to maximise strong marketing, messaging and communications. A skill that many designers will overlook. Anne truly understands that effective design can significantly impact on business results, especially with getting new client leads, and generating online sales. She has a great ‘can do’ attitude and I would happily recommend Anne to anyone.”
“I have been working with Anne, producing the NZOIA Quarterly magazine since 2012. I send her Word documents and photos then she works her magic, showing lots of creativity and initiative to produce a professional looking magazine. She’s patient and open minded to my suggestions. Our communication is smooth, she’s easy to work with.”
“Working with Anne from Graphic Design Wellington has been the best decision I have made during my many years in business. Anne was with me from the start of my website, guiding me in all the right directions and making a daunting collaboration effortless.

“We have worked with Anne on the design of eight commercial photography books since the 1990s and will continue to do so well into the future.

We would highly recommend her to anyone who is in need of her skills in this area.”
“I have worked with Anne in providing interpretive signage – most recently for a project on native wetland species on Mana Island. Anne’s collaborative style allowed me to work alongside her at the screen to come up with creative and workable solutions. From the ideas stage through to production, Anne has the skills to guide a project through the process, liaising with printers and signmakers to the end product. Her combination of creative flair and technical competence makes Anne our trusted ‘go to’ person for graphic design and displays.”
“Anne has been looking after our website, for a couple of years, and it’s been such an easy process. Nothing is a problem, and she makes great suggestions from an objective perspective. Anne works professionally and in a timely manner, because she understands how important our business websites are to our business. She navigated the addition of online purchasing to our website and will kept editing things until we were satisfied that it is what we wanted, thank you Anne! I highly recommend Anne Johnston Graphic Design for website management.”

Your patience and good humour make it a pleasure to work with you, but you never compromise on the integrity of your vision and meticulous standards of accuracy. You take a view of the whole site, and the full impact will come when landscaping is complete.”
“Anne has been looking after the various needs of my business for over twenty years. She has created my two websites and continues to manage them creatively and professionally. Anne also produces my easy to read monthly email newsletter and manages its distribution. More recently, she has designed and produced my book Living Treefully which has received much praise for the design quality of the finished product. Anne is always ready to go the extra mile to do research or suggest things I am uncertain or unclear about and is marvellous at giving respectful but firm advice. I have no idea where I would be without her! To Anne, grateful thanks.”
