Kamilla Illustration and Your Business
Custom designs and one of a kind illustrations to help turn your cafe into a unique experience no one else can match.
Let me guess, you want your cafe to look and feel unique?
But everywhere you look, you find boring, minimalistic, cookie cutter visuals that look like everyone else.
You want a way to create a memorable brand that stay in your customer's mind long after the coffee has cooled.
I get it
You want art!
That's exactly why I created Kamilla Illustration & Your Business. So small businesses like yours can harness the power of customized illustration to give your business an edge.
I graduated with a degree in illustration in 2022 and since, designing illustrations that help my clients and their services or products become more visible, look unique and help them engage with their community and customers.
Not only do I understand the pressures of running a small business and trying to do everything yourself, but I understand how to create illustrations that have an impact on your customers and make you one of a kind in your business.
We work together, usually for 4-8 weeks, to create custom visual illustrations for your business. From idea to sketch to the final design, you’ll have the ability to offer creative input so that your illustrations not only represent your brand but enhance the customer experience.

How does illustration really help me and my business?
It can help you design a new look or refresh/ work with your current visuals to help your business stand out in a unique way AND because art isn’t always used for small businesses you’ll have a much more memorable space that your customers, both new and old, will want to return to.
I know how I want my business to feel but I'm not sure how to utilize illustration for that, can you help me figure it out?
Absolutely, I can help you with this! I can incorporate any theme you'd like in the illustration. If you explain a little about your goal and your space I can suggest what kind of illustration you might want, rather that's customized window vinyl, printable murals for your interior, gift cards, a new logo, small graphics for receipts, cups and menus, new art for merch or anything else you might consider.
If using illustration is so different for small businesses, will it still look professional?
YES!! Absolutely! While illustration is relatively rare in the business world it does get used to great effect. Some of the top coffee shops in the industry are already making the most of illustration to make their space, packaging or brand more interesting. You can stay ahead of the curve by utilizing illustration to shape your business’s visuals. I also have examples of work I’ve done for other businesses if you’d like to see how it can look for you.
What if I need a contractor to print/ install the illustration I want?
Many of the businesses I’ve worked with already have a contractor they prefer to work with but I can help you research some one to work with if you need.
What’s pricing like?
Illustration is usually more affordable than people think! If you book a free call, we can discuss pricing and payment options, starting at 600 per image with discounted pricing for 3 or more images.

It has been wonderful working with Kamilla. She provided several creative preliminary sketches and made edits to them as we threw ideas at her. As we got closer to the final illustration, Kamilla graciously returned updates in a timely manner. Kamilla created a lovely illustration in several formates that we're happy to use in our promotional material.
