I'm Charley, the founder of Ella Jones Design, a brand and website studio built for women who are done being underserved by an industry that loves to overcomplicate, overcharge, and hold you hostage over your own website.
After more than 10 years in marketing across agencies, big corporate brands, and government, I've seen what bad design costs businesses at every level. And I built this studio because I genuinely believe you deserve better.
I didn't start out wanting to be a designer. I started out wanting to help people, which is probably why this work feels so personal to me.
I've worked in boardrooms and boutique agencies. I've managed campaigns for big Australian brands and sat in government meetings where nobody talked like a real human. And somewhere in all of that, I realised the women who needed the most support were the ones building something of their own, women who were genuinely good at what they did but had a brand that wasn't keeping up with them.
So I started Ella Jones Design. Not because I wanted to make pretty things, but because I wanted to make a real difference to real businesses.
I'm a mum of two, I'm building this alongside the juggle of family life, and I care more about your results than my client count. When you work with me you get someone who is genuinely in your corner from the first conversation to the final handover, and long after.
Guzman Y Gomez or Yiros! I also love a sneaky Bahn Mi
I love dance! I was a contemporary dancer before finding latin dance which I absolutely fell in love with!
Old school RnB is always my go to but I also love new RnB as well. Anything with Sza or Miguel.
Iced latte in summer or cappuccino in winter, always has to be at least a double shot - the more the better!
A lot of designers will tell you they're different. Here's what actually makes me different.
Your website will never be held hostage. You get every login, every file, every piece of your brand, because it belongs to you. Full stop.
I build on Squarespace, Showit, and Shopify specifically because they give you the freedom to run your own site without needing to call someone every time you want to change a word. Owning your brand means actually being able to use it.
I don't design for me, I design for you and your audience. The best brand sits at the intersection of what your clients need to see and what you genuinely love, because a brand you don't love is a brand you won't use. And a brand you don't use is a business that stays invisible.
I think about the whole journey, not just how it looks. Every site I build has a strategy behind it, who you are, what you do, why they should trust you, and exactly how to get them from stranger to ready to book.
I've worked with over 200 women in business and I've seen what happens when someone finally has a brand that reflects the quality of their work. They raise their prices. They show up consistently. Some of them go full time. That's the real product I'm selling.
