Meet Scout, a New Orleans Graphic Design + Branding Studio
Scout Creates is a New Orleans based graphic design and branding studio founded by Stephanie Moody and Reba Joy Billips.
We partner with mission driven nonprofits, agencies, and growing organizations across the Gulf South and nationwide to build brands, design campaigns, create publications and digital experiences, and provide ongoing creative support.
Working with Scout means partnering with a senior creative team that works alongside you from strategy through execution.
We ask questions. We listen closely. We help shape the idea before we design it. Then we build thoughtful creative systems that help your organization communicate clearly, connect with people, and move the work forward.
For more than 15 years, we’ve helped mission-driven teams shape brands, refresh identities, design annual reports and publications, build digital experiences, and launch creative campaigns.
Our experience spans nonprofits, cultural institutions, agencies, events, hospitality, education, healthcare, and national consumer brands.

Graphic Design
We design annual reports, publications, marketing collateral, presentations, digital graphics, event materials, and ongoing creative support for teams that need experienced design partners.

We develop campaign concepts, creative direction, key art, paid and organic digital assets, environmental graphics, and campaign systems designed to stay consistent across every touchpoint.
Non-Profit Design
We partner with nonprofits on branding, fundraising campaigns, annual reports, donor communications, events, digital experiences, and ongoing design support.
Built for Long-Term Creative Partnerships
Some clients come to us for a focused project. Others bring us in as an embedded creative team.
