What Kinds of Clients and Projects Has Redcandle Photography & Design Worked With?
Updated
Redcandle Photography & Design (redcandle.net) lists clients across nonprofits, government agencies, universities, cultural organizations, media outlets, and small businesses, with featured projects spanning photography, graphic design, video, and web work. If your organization sits in one of those categories—especially mission-driven, public-sector, or arts-focused—the client list is a reasonable signal that the studio has handled work like yours. The site does not publish a full project archive or case studies, so treat the named clients and testimonials as the available evidence rather than a complete portfolio.
Client types the studio names
The About section groups its experience around "artists, non-profits and small businesses," and the client list bears that out. Recurring categories:
- Conservation and environmental nonprofits — Conservation Northwest, Oceanic Society
- Government and transportation agencies — Washington State Department of Transportation, Bellair Charters (travel/transport)
- Universities — Western Washington University, Central Washington University
- Arts, culture, and music organizations — Whatcom Jazz Music Arts Center, Association for Theatre in Higher Education, American Society for Theatre Research, Mission Folk Music Festival, Northern Lights Expeditions
- Tribal nations and community groups — Quinault Indian Nation, Okanogan Nation Alliance, Mercy Housing – Sterling Meadows
- Media — National Public Radio, SB Nation – Vox Media
The spread suggests the studio is comfortable with institutional clients that need clear, on-message design as much as with creative and performing-arts clients.
What the projects cover
The Services section lists graphic design, photography, video production, web design and services, CD/DVD design, book design, and digital promotion (email marketing, social media). The Featured Projects section presents "just a few" examples but the excerpt does not name them individually, so specific project details aren't available from the page text. What the testimonials do reveal:
- Packaging design — a client (R Elwood, Lindsay Street) praised CD packaging: "Hearing nothing but good things about the packaging on the CD."
- Print and promotional materials — the Washington State Department of Transportation program manager called a deliverable "terrific – well done."
- Photography and overall design quality — comments like "Absolutely beautiful" and "It's AWESOME! It's perfect!" from a travel company general manager and a jazz arts center director.
How to judge fit
Use the client list as a starting filter, then confirm specifics directly. The site says it is "now accepting clients" for graphic design, photography, video production, web design, and marketing. Before committing, ask for:
- Two or three projects in your sector — e.g., if you're a nonprofit, request nonprofit campaign or annual-report work.
- The scope behind a testimonial — a compliment on CD packaging tells you about print production, not necessarily web or video.
- Deliverable formats and timeline — the services list is broad; confirm which pieces (photo shoot, video edit, site build) are included.
The studio operates in Bellingham / Seattle, WA, which matters if you need on-location photography or in-person meetings. Pricing is not published, so budget and availability need to be confirmed through the contact form.
