For over 35 years, we have been providing local, regional, and national clients with quality branding, graphic design, advertising, and marketing communications. We are small in number and like it that way—it gives us a personal touch in partnering with our clients, and we enjoy the variety of hats we wear as we work together to address our clients’ needs and provide solutions. We are located in Provo, Utah, amidst the majestic Rocky Mountains.

A Brief History of Hales Creative
In 1982 Stephen Hales started an advertising and graphic design firm, which he directed for over 30 years. With a talented staff, Hales Creative became the most award-winning design firm in Utah Valley, regularly being recognized for its work both regionally and nationally.
Sadly, Stephen’s distinguished life and career were cut short by a sudden and aggressive cancer.
We keep to Stephen’s traditions of top-quality work while nurturing mutually rewarding relationships with our partners—the clients we consider ourselves fortunate to work with.

Awards
While winning awards is not the reason we strive to do great work, a pat on the back is always nice. Here are some recognitions we’ve received over the years:




Clients
We fully understand that we are in business for and because of our clients. We are always grateful to work with good people who have great vision for their projects and organizations, and who put their trust in us to help them carry out that vision.
We especially love our relationships with long-standing clients. We find that most of our work is from recurring clients and referrals—which, we think, means something good.
