The digital sphere is a democratizing force for the individual or the small business. With the click of a button, we can reach audiences of unprecedented size to sell a product, publicize a blog, or run an ad. Even a job hunt can be enhanced with a beautiful, appealing online presence. With the visibility and boundless potential the Internet offers, it’s important to put your best foot forward by unifying your online brand messaging & imagery. That’s tough to do without an in-house marketing department, so alb.ert.tine aims to be your lean, clean branding machine - think of us as a personal stylist for your digital footprint.

ALBERTINE THE PERSON resides in Sammamish with her fiancé, a chatty cat, and more plaid textiles than she knows what to do with.

She has written for PurseBlog, Kenneth Cole, and a range of indie magazines. Her photos have been featured by a diverse spread of organizations, including the The Atlantic, Travel + Leisure, Houston Public Media, Olympic National Park Lodges, Seattle Met, the Washington Trails Association, Washington’s National Park Fund, and The Northwest Symphony Orchestra @ Benaroya Hall.
