“Niki’s unfailing good spirits and can-do attitude made her very successful in our highly personal, customer-focused business. Excellent communication skills, clear and straightforward, made her a highly respected part of the team. She has a unique illustration style and a good sense for brand message, so when she clicks with a client magic happens.”

“At first, I approached Nicole Baker to do the wedding invitations for our wedding. As my fiancé and I saw Nicole’s first drafts of our invitations, we wanted to jump in. And jump in we did. In the end, Nicole designed EVERYTHING for my wedding when it came to stationery: a save the date PDF, rehearsal dinner invitations, wedding invitations, day after brunch invitations, table numbers, guestbook cards, favor tags…the list goes on. We have already gotten so many compliments from our guests on the RSVP cards. Not only does Nicole have taste, she listened to what we wanted and made something beautiful out of our babbled vision for our wedding suite. Plus, Dependable Letterpress printed everything BEAUTIFULLY. It turned out even better than we had expected. My fiancé and I were so grateful that we had Nicole Baker on our team - thank you, Nicole! ”

“Nicole was such a pleasure to work with. A brilliant designer and such a creative mind. My husband and I asked Nicole to do a totally original custom design for our wedding stationery and right away, she understood the feeling and aesthetic we were going for. She created Save-the-Dates, wedding invitations, our wedding menus, and three wood block decorations that all fit seamlessly into our theme, but were each unique and personal. Our Save-the-Dates incorporated elements of our wedding venue, and the image on the front of our invitations was a beautiful and inventive take on a photo we took right after our engagement (our feet perched on a ledge far above Sutro Baths). We received so many compliments from guests on how lovely our stationery was. And to be honest, it was the most fun and the least stressful thing about our wedding planning. ”

“Nicole was fantastic to work with, as was her colleague Joel. They helped craft our wedding invitations based on my rather primitive design. Nicole really understood our aesthetic vision and made our idea a reality. The invitations are spectacularly impressive, extraordinarily classy, and we are absolutely delighted with the finished product! I totally and enthusiastically recommend Dependable Letterpress!”

“I had the best experience with Nicole Baker at Dependable Letterpress. She designed all the pieces included in my invites. I gave her a general image and theme and she came back with such great artwork and additional personalizations for my fiancé and I. She was very prompt with responses to all my emails and changes I requested along the way. Nicole was very patient with me and took the time to listen to our needs and make her own suggestions to improve our design. I highly recommend her and her beautiful artwork. She’s amazing!”

“I used Nicole for all things paper for my wedding! She knows color and style really well and is able to put everything you want to paper. She has a diverse set of skills and a completely creative mind! Everything that she creates is truly beautiful, different, and unique! I will never use anyone else.”

“I was so worried before taking Niki’s class for rubber stamp carving. But I wanted to make a nice Valentine’s card for my boyfriend. I’ve never taken an art class, even in school. I can’t do any better than stick figures. But Niki was so nice about it and kept encouraging me. I made a few mistakes, and she always asked for my permission before helping me fix them. I would definitely recommend Niki based on her art skills and her great personality.”
