This year, I’ve had the opportunity to work on some retail-based projects for Solestruck. Best known as an online source for awesome footwear, they recently expanded into a new retail space designed by Skylab in the heart of downtown Portland. This shop is unique because it’s their only brick and mortar location in the world. [...]

Photographer Luke Copping came to me late last year with a new promotional idea. He wanted to present his top images not in a portfolio but instead in a magazine format. In the few years we’ve been working together on his branding, we’ve collaborated on a number of web and print promos but in Luke’s [...]

Two of my main goals for 2011 included revamping my web and print portfolios. I’d done so many projects since my last version that I felt like my portfolios were no longer an accurate representation of my skill level. So, I got to work, first redeveloping the print version and then basing my web version [...]

There’s no denying that Kat of Rock N Roll Bride has some serious enthusiasm for her brand. What I admire about Kat is that she doesn’t just let things be — she keeps pushing ahead and thinking up new ideas. What started out as a small collaboration two years ago creating a new brand identity has [...]

Am I in need of business cards? Not particularly. I probably have close to ten different designs on hand that I’ve designed over the years. Though I have a lot of cards, I’ve never done a letterpress version, in part because they are very expensive to produce. This year, I finally took the plunge. I’ve [...]

Kristin Cofer is a San Francisco-based photographer with a knack for fashion and portrait photography. In a past life, she went to school for graphic design and her innate sense for composition shines through in the photos she creates. We first began working together in 2010 when she hired me to brand her photography business. [...]

About a year ago, I worked with Kat from the highly imaginative (and addictive) U.K.-based wedding site, Rock N Roll Bride to update her branding and web header. We were both really happy with the outcome — it was bold but still pulled together. A few months back, she contacted me and wanted a media kit, [...]

Most of the time, I wouldn’t be caught dead in sandals but these See By Chloe cuties from Solestruck are a game changer. Metallic blue leather + wedges coated in the shiniest of white? Adjustability with the ease of hidden velcro? Need I say more?! Solestruck.com In my mind, these scream space age chic and [...]

Dina is a social media marketer and works with world class fashion clients all the while making time to blog with a razor-sharp wit about everything from Burberry trenches to pole-dancing classes. When I read her posts, I always [...]

Luke Copping was one of the first photographers I ever worked with and we’ve continued to team up on various branding projects ever since. Luke already had business cards featuring the identity I designed for him but he came to me in early 2011 wanting something fresh. Luke’s branding has had over a year to [...]
