I want to commend Nicolene on the wonderful work she has done when I asked her to make me a cover for one of my upcoming projects. From the moment I contact Nicolene she was kind and courteous and jump over hoops for me. I was asked for approval before she made changes and proceeded to the next step of the process. The finish product was absolutely wonderful and I am truly in love with the work she has done. Every few days I visit her site to look at other projects, her artistic talent is remarkable. Thank you Nicolene.

You just have to look on Nicky's website to sample the quality of her work. I requested a banner to capture the essence of my book series, and the results were rather shiny. It sits proudly as the head of my blog page.
I fully intend to use NLD for future work when I get the chance!
Useful?

Nicolene Lorrette Design did a banner for my Facebook Page and Website. She was friendly, efficient, and listened to what I wanted. The first version wasn't quite what I was looking for but the second was perfect and I had no issues with asking for further changes. Top quality work and a top quality design service.

I had Nicolene van Staden work on one of my photos and "Wow", I was more than impressed with the final product. She was quick on her turn around time, communicated very easily and was a pleasure to work with. She came up with an amazing idea and was very open to my suggestions as well. She took what was a plain picture of mine and turned it into a stunning piece of art. I HIGHLY recommend.

A very professional and friendly service.

When I first contacted Nicolene Lorette Design regarding a possible commission for my book cover I had no idea what to expect as this was the first time I'd ever considered photo manipulation.

What I found was an amazing service.

Nicolene Lorette Design offered me professionality, a friendly and open approach to all my ideas and ultimately, the perfect cover for my book. Nicolene is a talented and dedicated artist and her work reflects her passion. I was over the moon with the final product and she was also flexible to my Budget needs, as well as open for discussion whenever I wanted to try something different.

I highly recommend Nicolene Lorette Design's services and will be using her work and fantastic insight again.

Whether you are looking for a book cover or for a gorgeous print to display proudly in your home, Nicolene Lorette Design is the place for you :)
