I hired Cathi Stevenson and Gwen Gades to design my book. Even after they were both paid and completed their work, they  did a follow-up contact as to any further help needed. For me, that means they both cared and that I was completely satisfied. You can’t put a price on that.

When I asked Cathi Stevenson to design a cover for our timeline book Wonders of Old, I didn’t expect the gorgeous cover that I received. She has designed many covers for our company. Cathi is an amazing cover artist. We get compliments all the time on this particular cover. People say that they choose our book because it has a keepsake quality to it and I know that this is largely in part to the beautiful cover.

I’ve worked with Cathi and her team for quite some time, and it has been a wonderful experience. Cathi and her team’s attention to detail and willingness to listen to my needs have been extraordinary. Their beautiful and eye catching covers have captivated my readers and astounded me. I can’t thank them enough for their work and I highly recommend them.

I usually reach out to Cathi with the elements I want to appear on my covers but I always rely on her to put it all together. She has excellent judgment in laying out the design with the right proportions, font type and sizes and all of the many decisions required to produce professional covers.

Cathi is a creative genius and consummate professional. She created several book covers in record timing that I had only visualized but couldn’t explain — one of Cath’s superpowers. Being a first-time author and new to entrepreneurship, Cathi became a trusted source and comforting voice — in part because I feel like she “gets me.” To that end, I was adamant that she do my business logo. We laughed at some of my extreme color choices, but even if it was something that Cathi typically wouldn’t do, she aimed to please, making my unconventional requests look clean, crisp, and professional. Through my connection with Cathi, I enjoyed working with Gwen on my interior formatting and Stephanie on my website — my dream team.

Cathi went above and beyond my expectations. The layout and design of the drafts provided blew me away. She captured what was in my head and made it 1000x better graphically. The cover turned out superior and I have gotten a lot of positive comments. She is very easy to work with, efficient, and delivers beyond expectations. I will use her for all my cover work. Great job!
