About Marah
Circa 2005. November in Oregon (read: cold, wet and gray). Two fledgling creative companies begin plying their respective trades. One, a web development firm operating amidst the berry patches and tulip fields south of Portland. The other, a home-based film and project management company in eclectic Southeast Portland. Each, separately, develops a keen affection for telling a compelling brand story until, one fateful day, their paths cross in—where else—a coffee shop. Marah Creative is born.*

This small company grew, laughed in the face of corporate bureaucracy and pushed people to understand what good marketing is all about—storytelling. It’s in our DNA. It is, truly, our passion. The Marah Creative team continues to expand, adding the talent and tools to tell more stories than ever, to a wider audience than ever, and we couldn’t be having more fun. Sweetness is our philosophy not because we like cupcakes—although we do—but because we live for that moment when process and art come together to make sweet music, beautifully unifying a brand.
