About White Ink Calligraphy + Co.
Claire White started White Ink Calligraphy in 2016 and quickly became one of Nashville’s most sought after calligraphers.  All of the calligraphy shown by White Ink is hand-lettered by Claire, in White Ink’s East Nashville studio.  Claire brought Townley White onto the White Ink team in 2020 to assist with graphic design and printing services.  Since 2020, White Ink has been a full service stationery and design studio, assisting their clients with one-of-a-kind invitations and event details.

Meet Claire: About White Ink Calligraphy + Co.

Claire White headshot

Claire White is the hand and heart behind White Ink Calligraphy + Co.  She started practicing pointed pen calligraphy in 2014, and her love for all things hand-lettered has continued to flourish (pun intended).  Her calligraphy has been showcased from local weddings to destination weddings, from small family gatherings, to large corporate events. She has taught calligraphy classes and traveled across the country to learn from the best in the industry. Her style of lettering is specific to her hand, providing formal and modern calligraphy styles. 
White Ink was founded in 2016; and in 2020, Claire expanded White Ink’s services to include a full printing and design studio, bringing on her sister, Townley, as White Ink’s stationer.  As a team, Claire and Townley provide full service wedding and event details, from the save the date to the cocktail napkins sitting on the bar.  
Claire is also an attorney, having practiced for 8 years prior to taking White Ink as her full time love.  She lives in East Nashville with her husband, Aaron, and her two sweet pups, Charlie and Remy. 

Meet Townley

Townley White turns not only turns Claire’s calligraphy into pixels, she also provides full stationery services for White Ink clients.

Townley began digital designing in 2013 when she opened an Etsy shop, Townley Designs. After 3,000 digital design sales, she decided to join forces with Claire to create custom invitations utilizing custom calligraphy and her love of digital design.

Outside of stationery, Townley has a therapy practice in Nashville, where she lives with her husband, Mack, and son, Monroe. She enjoys spending time indoor cycling, curating fonts, planning the travel behind White ink and exercising her Bernedoodle, Louie!

Cool brides don’t do boring seating charts.

Our bride was effortlessly cool, wildly creative, and fully on board with a little curated chaos. She had us experimenting with textures, writing tools, and breaking all the rules.

The best kind of creative freedom.

When the bride says she wants it hand written, a bit messy, not uniform, I got to my chunky @sharpie and have a little fun. Calling this style “undone” ❤️

So thankful ❤️❤️.

I was driving past the courthouse the other day, and realized that world feels like a lifetime ago. I’m just so happy I don’t have to wear pencil skirts anymore. Just sayin’. 😂
