I receive quite a few inquiries about logo design - and I only take on ones that I feel I can connect to on a deeper level. I am very ‘old school’ when it comes to logo design and I truly believe that they MUST mean something on a conceptual level - not just look […]
Recently JewelBoxing.com contacted me after seeing the package design I did for Ben Chrisman on my blog. I was really excited to hear that they loved what we did and wanted to feature Ben and I on their blog! So here is a link to the story … it doesn’t have a permalink yet as […]
Ben pulled my rubber arm a while ago and tempted me with a DVD packaging project using the JewelBoxing products. While their templates were a touch tricky to decipher at first, we came up with a packaging concept that will be easy for Ben to customize himself for each of his clients with the layered […]
This week I worked with Jen (Jennifer S Rau Photography) on her 5×5 trifold promo card. She wanted to feature both a variety of wedding shots as well as couple shots - target audience: high end coordinators. Thanks Jen! Can’t wait to see it printed!

I’ve been meaning for a while to post this fun little splash page that Jennifer Rau & I worked on for her redesigned website. She wasn’t really super thrilled with the direction that her splash page was going - although she loved her new site itself & her existing logo … so I listened to […]

Chad and Malia both looked shocked themselves … turns out - this came from our clients’ Meg & Charles of […]
I have had the privilege of getting to know Jamie Fender very well over our last few album projects. She’s a vivacious and energetic self proclaimed ‘girl next door’ who just LOVES to shoot - and is very good (and passionate) about her photography. She was looking for help in creating a logo that emphasizes […]
Just had the pleasure of designing a fresh and new business card for Photographer David Primm or Desnae Photo. His photography specialty is creating unique portraits on-location. He wanted his branding to reflect “It’s who you are.” He had sent a ton of photos to look at and he had a logo but that’s […]
Photographer Danny Weiss asked me to design a 5.5 x 8.5 color postcard to promote his headshot business for actors, musicians etc. for the New York market. The idea was to highlight the shots, retain consistency for his branding, keep it simple but not like the other headshot comp cards that he’s used to seeing […]
One of the first things I learned in design school was this: inspiration can be found everywhere and everything.
