NEW ENGLAND — Sour Patch Studios, a creative studio specializing in brand design, web design, social media management, and content creation, is proud to celebrate three years in business as of June 2026. What began in June 2023 as a one-woman operation founded by Samantha Ward has grown into a four-person team serving small businesses, entrepreneurs, and couples across Massachusetts and New England.
When Samantha Ward launched Sour Patch Studios in 2023, she was a team of one, personally handling everything in the social media management realm (formerly known at the time as Social with Sam) that then grew into a creative agency offering everything from branding and website design to on-site content creation and social media management. Three years later, that solo venture has grown into a collaborative studio of four, expanding its capacity to support more clients while keeping the personal, heart-led approach the studio was built on.
Today, Sour Patch Studios partners with small businesses and creative entrepreneurs to build cohesive brands and digital presences; offering brand and website design, ongoing social media management, and photo and video content creation, including wedding and event content coverage.
“Three years ago, it was just me, my laptop, and a whole lot of heart,” said Samantha Ward, Owner of Sour Patch Studios. “Growing from one to four has been the most rewarding part of this journey. It means we get to pour into more businesses and tell more stories, without ever losing the personal touch that makes us who we are. I’m endlessly grateful to our clients and to the team who’ve helped bring this vision to life.”
As it enters its fourth year, Sour Patch Studios plans to continue expanding its services and team while deepening its commitment to the small businesses and creative entrepreneurs it serves throughout the region.
