Mixed Media Creations

Susie Carter founded Mixed Media Creations as a Dallas-Fort Worth-based branding and design studio built around a specific corner of commercial real estate: multifamily apartment communities and the property management companies that run them. According to the agency's About page, Carter brings more than two decades of experience in marketing, branding, and visual storytelling, and started MMC out of a desire to offer something more partnership-driven than what she saw at traditional agencies. She serves as Owner and President, and the site emphasizes a servant-leadership posture that shapes how the team is hired and how clients are handled.

The thesis guiding the firm is that multifamily marketing is its own discipline. Lease-up timelines, property rebrands, resident events, model unit photography, site plan renderings, and portfolio-wide brand standards are problems generalist agencies tend to underestimate. MMC positions itself as a single in-house shop that can cover the whole stack — identity, photo and drone, video, web, promo, signage — so property teams aren't stitching together five vendors per community.

Accessibility is a recurring theme rather than a throwaway line. The studio cites WCAG 2.2 and ADA standards across its design and web work, and the art director is specifically described as focused on accessible design. The team page lists a named operations manager, CXO, art director, lead web developer, digital media designer, and account manager, suggesting a small but fully staffed studio rather than a solo operator with contractors. The public founder narrative is relatively brief; most of the site's weight sits on services, team culture, and client testimonials rather than Carter's personal backstory.
