Essential Earth Brochure

VitaliCare came to me with the need of a brochure to promote their new product. This brochure is a self-standing, tri-fold brochure that has a die-cut so when folded, the top of the bottle pops up. The bottle on the brochure is actual size and sat next to a display of the bottles, with plenty brochures to hand out.

It was a fun idea, and the client loved the out-of-the-box thinking.

My Body My Canvas

This spread was designed for an article in Lustre, a hypothetical magazine in New York. The article is about people, and why they dress and look the way they do. The cover spread and one inside spread is represented here. I was the art director on this project. I directed the photo shoots, which included finding the models and getting them ready for the shoot. I was also the designer of the project.

My photographer and I had a great time putting this together. The article was written by Haley Barkle.

Juliet Shoes Campaign

Juliet is a fictitious shoe company for women. This campaign is designed to look like an article in a magazine and includes four spreads. It is a modern spin which follows the scenes from Romeo and Juliet. Incredible photography creates each scene.

This was a fun project I did with a photographer friend. I directed the photoshoot and did the design and layout. Just too much fun!

Alside Print Ads

Alside is a company that makes siding for homes. They cater to upper class homes and focus on durability. With this campaign, I show three different homes in various natural disasters. The homes are still beautiful with no damage at all, thanks to the incredibly durable siding.

This was another project I did for fun to do something different. Had a good time with it too.

Tickle Tou

My wife writes amazing children's books and she asked if I'd start illustrating and designing them. This is just the cover of the book, but it shows the illustration style that's prevalent throughout.

This book has not been published yet. It's a great book, and someday we'll see it on the shelves.

Golf Magazine Article

Here's another project I did for fun. It was an article for a golf magazine.

Thrust Campaign

Thrust was a fictional energy bar that tasted more like a candy bar. This campaign was meant to show how one of these energy bars will make you feel, and how cool it was.

For this project, I did the logo, the design and art directed the photoshoot. I knew what I wanted and we didn't stop until I got it. :)

DWR Print Ad

Design Within Reach is a company devoted to bringing the world’s most modern furniture to everyone. This campaign’s purpose is to show the popularity of the furniture itself by having it missing in the catalog, while on the next page a young person is running away with the very piece that is missing.

Don't Worry. We Have More.

This was another print ad spread that I did because I had an idea and wanted to play around with it. Just having fun.

Big Blue

This article about the blue ocean started out with a creative spread that couldn't help but bring the viewer into the piece. The article continued on the following pages.

Speedo Web Site

When I started out in web design, I wanted to take another Web site that I thought was done poorly and redesign it. I played around with a new design for Speedo. I designed it and coded it. It was actually a lot of fun for my first site ever. :)

Apple Switch Campaign

Just for fun, I decided to take the old Apple Switch campaign (it was still running when I did this) and make one with Bill Gates as the one who's switching. LOL. Had a blast.

It says "I got tired of Windows always crashing. I now have a Mac and I tell all my friends to switch."

Sometimes you just need to do something different to break out of the day-to-day routine.
