Braden
Web Developer
When you partner with our studio, Floodlight, you get a experienced team of design-focused web developers and digital problem solvers. Details matter. We translate intricate web designs into wonderful online experiences.
We collaborate with our clients, design agencies, marketing firms, IT teams, and freelancers to bring big ideas to life through the brands we build and digital magic we make happen. From discovery to delivery, we lead effortlessly, manage meticulously, and inspire teams to enjoy the ride.
With a portfolio of work spanning over 16 years, it’s safe to say that we’ve encountered just about every type of digital related project. Below is a bit more information on our primary areas of expertise.
A user’s first impression of your website takes milliseconds. Their experience in that amount of time determines not only their impression of your brand, but also whether or not they drop off of or ever return to your site. That’s why we strategically build websites for our clients and optimize them for superior user experiences on desktop, laptop, mobile, and other devices.
We know you want to maintain your site’s content in the most efficient way possible. That’s why at the very start of your project, we advise you on the best possible interface for your needs. We utilize the world’s leading CMS platforms (WordPress, Shopify, and more) in combination with our own custom CMS platforms to create streamlined web-based interfaces for your site management.

01
BE OPEN
Floodlight was founded on the belief that clients should have full transparency (and a hand in) the process of building their digital experience. We work together with you, keep lines of communication open, and share the keys that drive your website. We point a floodlight at technical challenges and turn them into a product that shines.
02
BE SUPERB
We don’t believe in a “first time”; we believe in getting it right the “only time.” And we go to great lengths in preparing for a build to ensure every aspect of what we create is superb down to every last detail and has functionality with longevity that simplifies maintenance.
03
BE ACCESSIBLE
We are our own translators. We know the solutions we provide are as complex as the challenges you need them for, and we break it down for you in a way that helps you visualize how everything is going to fall into place. We are there every step of the way clarifying what each step means for your brand because we know what your brand means to you.
04
BE QUICK
Our team is optimized for loading speed, and your website will be, too. Customization and brand expression take the front seat, but speed is the driver for your experience. We take that into account with every stage of developing your site’s features and functionality.
