About us
We built our seats at the table first—now we help your business do the same.
Gather Round Studio was built by two creatives who believe that every business deserves a seat at the table—not just a presence online, but a presence that feels deeply like you.
We’re Sarah and Julia, digital storytellers, and co-founders who have spent the last six years building powerful brands—first our own, then for businesses across York Region and beyond. What started as two women experimenting with content, design, and community has grown into a community that helps service-based businesses show up with clarity, confidence, and consistency.
A bit more about us…The AssistantsMeet Chester and Cooper.
Chester would do just about anything for a belly rub and likes to keep cardio to a minimum (me too Chester, me too).
Cooper takes being a gentleman very seriously. He never misses a chance to offer a proper handshake- just be sure not to leave socks or scrunchies around, as you might not want them back after return.
Our furry assistants and behind-the-scenes regulars — keeping spirits high and content cozy.
Off-Hours CreativityLike most creatives (and victims of the internet), we’re serial hobbyists. No craft is too complex when your blind confidence says, “Oh yeah, I can do that”. Our creative brains thrive - our bank accounts, however, suffer greatly when we need “just a few supplies”. We would not have it any other way :)
Our Go-To Coffee OrdersOur creative process starts the same way every time: both of us gathering together with our coffee and saying, “Okay, hear me out...” (after all, it is how we came up with our business name).
Sarah loves a classic vanilla latte, Julia keeps it simple with an iced coffee (yes, even in the winter).
We believe great work is thoughtful, a little fun and fueled by our caffeine and curiosity.
