HELLO!

I’m Noelle J. Olsen, a graphic designer and photographer who believes that design is everywhere—and that the opportunities to create something meaningful are endless.

After earning my BFA in Graphic Design from the University of Utah, I found my passion in capturing real, magical moments for Davis School District, where I combine design, photography, and social media to tell authentic stories. I love work that has purpose—art that connects with people and adds meaning to everyday experiences.

Whether I’m experimenting with layouts, exploring new materials, or capturing a fleeting moment through my lens, I believe creativity starts with exploration. I bring that same curiosity and care into my freelance design and photography work, partnering with clients to create visuals that feel intentional, personal, and true to their story.
