If your designs feel ‘off’ and you’re ready for visuals that actually reflect your story— you’re in the right place.

Maybe your…

  • Church graphics feel rushed — more like trying to get everything done before Sunday than reflecting your heart or vision.

  • Logo looks like a quick fix. Something you settled for, not something you’re proud to show off.

  • Visuals just feel… generic. And it’s holding you back from showing up confidently.

👉 You’ve tried Canva. Templates. Even AI.
But the results still don’t reflect who you are.

That’s where I come in.
I create branding and design that’s handcrafted, rooted in story, and built to last — work that feels like you, helps you stand out, and leaves a lasting impact.

What Clients Are Saying

“She exceeded my expectations and listened to what I wanted.”

Paxton was a delight to work with. She listened to my opinions, took notes, and provided a great logo and branding for our church. She exceeded my expectations and listened to what I wanted. She delivered a great brand, carefully explaining and showing her creative process for the end result. Would definitely use her again in a heart beat!

— David Moore, Lead Pastor at New Village Church

“We are happy with our continued relationship with Paxton and would highly recommend her.”

Paxton Todd became aware of our need for a new website as we discovered that we had let our website fall into antiquity. When approached, she was super excited for the project. She listened carefully to our needs and wants. Paxton made good suggestions and brought up ideas we had not thought of and rearranged our designs for a better image. She continues to work with little reminders to better our social media presence. Our entire committee is so pleased with our new look. We are happy with our continued relationship with Paxton and would highly recommend her.

— Patty McLary, Former President of Catskill Christian Assembly

06. Deliver & Equip

You’ll receive everything you need to confidently show up in the world — backed by visuals that reflect your story and support your next chapter.

Custom design isn’t a luxury
it’s essential.

Too many churches and small businesses settle for Canva templates, AI graphics, or designs that look just like the place down the street. The result? Blurry messages, copycat flyers, and missed opportunities to connect.

I believe your story deserves better. That’s why I create custom, handcrafted design — work that stands out, tells your story clearly, and lasts longer than a trend cycle.

The Founder Behind
Paxton Creative Co

Hey, I’m Paxton — creative director, designer, and the heart behind Paxton Creative Co.

What started as a passion project for my local church has grown into a creative studio built on purpose, clarity, and heart. Over the years I’ve seen how custom design can transform the way churches and small businesses show up — and I wanted to create a space where story and design always go hand-in-hand.

Every project I take on is handcrafted, rooted in story, and designed to last. No trendy templates. No copy-paste logos. Just thoughtful design, built by hand and with strategy — so you can feel confident showing up in the work you’re called to do.
