Buente

Creative?

Buente Creative is a full service creative agency based in Chicago, IL.

Founder Frankie Buente started Buente Creative to help other people with big ideas get them out into the world.

We’re a small creative team based in Chicago, and our work covers just about everything: social media, photography, video, visual branding, and fabrications. One day we might be editing social media content for everyone from real estate agents to restaurants. The next, we might be photographing album covers.

Frankie’s served as creative director for the Manifest Urban Arts Festival, run social media for Louisville’s Pink Snail Migration, and created multiple music videos from script to screen.

The projects change, but our approach doesn’t. We start by getting to know you, your brand, and your vision. Then, we’ll bring it to life in a way that feels authentic to you and sticks with the people who matter most.

Because we’re a small agency, you’ll always know who you’re working with, and your project will get the time and care it deserves. I know what it’s like to pour yourself into something and hope it finds its people. Helping it get there is my favorite part of the job!

Have an idea? I’d love to hear it.
