The Beginning

My name is Heather Hasse. Among many titles I have in life, I am a wife, mother, and founder of Simply to Impress.

Simply to Impress was created in 2003, when I was looking for innovative announcement and invitation designs. I was a woman on a mission - I wanted to use photographs to capture the moment in life I was celebrating. Whether it was a family holiday, the birth of one of my five children, or a birthday party I was throwing for a friend, I wanted to embrace that moment and capture the memory, without paying a fortune.

After hard work, dedication, and the loving support of my family, Simply to Impress has come a long way. We expanded from a single designer into a collaboration of graphic artists, photographers, and support staff. With all the changes, however, our foundation has stayed the same. Other companies have tried to follow our lead, but our philosophy, customer service, and product quality stand alone.

The Philosophy

Simply to Impress is dedicated to providing our clients with quality invitations, announcements, and stationery at an affordable rate. We offer unsurpassed customer service, and our attention to detail keeps us standing above the rest. We are known for our high standards and artful presentations. People are shaped by personal and professional experiences - they affect how we see the world, how we react and relate, and how we set our priorities. We adopted our philosophy at Simply to Impress through our search for creativity with our own personal events, and by believing they shouldn't have to come with a high price tag.

Style

Although we can create just about any design for our products, our specialty is using photographs. Photographs are the poetry of the visual arts - their physical scope is contained within the four edges of a single frame, and within a precise moment in time. The ability of a photograph to convey meaning and beauty is immeasurable. This is our inspiration.

Uniqueness

We create one-of-a-kind stationery for special occasions. Our designs are intended to be treasured keepsakes that bring back warm memories for you, your friends, and family. We want our designs to reflect your personal style.

Our Passion

Our artistic expression will make your occasion an experience that will be treasured forever. We believe in creating designs that bridge the gap between fine art and photography. We believe in soul and grace with style - that passion will be your reward.

Our Goal

Our goal is simple - to provide you with quality custom products and superior service at a reasonable price. We believe in doing business the old fashioned way...with integrity, hard work, and respect. We are honored you have chosen Simply to Impress, and look forward to helping you create something you will cherish for years to come.

Life's special occasions are notorious for being expensive... With Simply to Impress, they don't have to be!
