Agency-tier design.
Freelance value and service.

“The overall design of a magazine is one of the most important elements in publishing. As the art director for Backbone magazine and many other publications Shelley has produced for Publimedia, she has a strong grasp of what it takes to create innovative layouts as well as work with illustrators, photographers, editors, and prepress to orchestrate a powerful message to attract our reader’s attention. Over the past 15 years she has been extremely reliable, professional and easy to work with and brings with her a wealth of creative experience.”

Shelley Walker of Walker Design + Communications has been a trusted partner for more than 12 years.  Always available and ready to meet our needs with quality work and attention to detail, she has kept up to date with every brand guideline change over the years.  This ensures minimal edits to her work and a very short turnaround time.  Thank you Shelley for being a true partner and representing our brand masterfully.

“I have been working with Shelley Walker at Walker Design since 2004 and she has consistently delivered fantastic products within budget and deadlines. Though solid briefings from clients are always preferred, Shelley understands that some projects are on a tight timeframe and she needs to come to the table with a great idea. Whether she has a longer deadline or receives a short, panicked phone call, she always delivers quality design that I am pleased to share with my clients. And her positive personality means that she is a pleasure to work with every time.”

“Walker Design has had a working relationship with King Pacific Lodge for the past six years. In that time Shelley has designed our corporate brochure and presentation folders, stationary, rate sheets, our annual newsletter, video case, DVD and CD sleeves and greeting cards as well as designed ads for an assortment of magazines. Working with Shelley has been a real pleasure, the quality and timeliness of her work have exceeded our expectations. Shelley is the best !”

“I enjoy working with Shelley because she combines years of experience and knowledge with fresh new ideas that meet the needs of our clients. She is mature and confident enough as a designer to balance what the client asks for with what they really need.”

“I have found Shelley Walker to be a very patient and creative lady who gives 100% of her effort to all of the work we have entrusted her with, no matter how big or small the project. The projects include the creation and production of numerous advertisements, booth posters and promotional booklets.”

I have worked with Shelley Walker for over twenty plus years at both CanWel and Gordon Food Service and am extremely happy with the work!  She is very creative, responsive and fast!  And gets it done.  She brings value to the table every time we produce our monthly newsletter.  

I was the Director of Marketing and Communications at the Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science at Queen’s University from 2009 to 2020. I engaged Shelley Walker to design countless magazines, annual reports, research catalogues, advertisements, banners, postcards, and pieces of merchandise. I was consistently impressed by not only her fantastic creativity but by her professionalism, her efficiency, and her cheerful attitude.   I would not hesitate to recommend Shelley for any project.
