From the people
Mikeila and her team just GOT ME from the start- they took my references and seamlessly transformed them into a new, polished brand package that spoke to the high end clientele I work with. I have seen such a positive response from clients and colleagues since my new website launched and I look forward to continuing on this journey as my brand grows.

I have proudly worked with Mikeila and the entire Bandit team on multiple incredible projects over the past few years. From the beginning within our strategy sessions and brainstorming, I knew the girls were the right fit. Enthusiastic, creative and most importantly they know brands and how to create a lasting memorable brand experience. The girls have an eye for aesthetics, directional creative output, work to tight and achievable timelines and always deliver on their scope. This is complimented by high levels of communication at all stages of the project.
Taryn Vinson, Canvas Creative Agency
From the outset the Bandit team was extremely engaging and responsive whilst remaining sensitive to our project brief and budget. Bandit created unique design schemes that exceeded our expectations and provided options and variations whenever requested. Throughout the design process we added extra services and documents to Bandit’s scope of works due to how thrilled we were with the results. We’ve also recommended Bandit to several of our own clients who are equally as impressed with what the team is creating. To the Bandit team; thank you for all your guidance, ideas and sunny attitudes- you’ve made the experience of re-branding more enjoyable that we thought was possible. Love your work!
