As seen in the new M. Cornell Importers catalog, the John Deere Chess Set is coming along nicely. I came up with the concept and worked with a local artist to develop the pieces. The photo shoot was challenging, as we didn't have all of the pieces available. So, we started with what we had, took a photo, then moved pieces to a new location, took a photo, and so on. The other problem was that the logos on the pieces were still in a raw phase, so I had to Photoshop those in. The final image I used for the catalog spread is a composite of 20 different photos that are blended, masked and color corrected together into one image.
Marketing Communication :: Design :: Writing
I've spent the last 10 years working in graphic design, marketing communications, and brand development. I have had the opportunity to work with some great brands and great people, from fledgling startups to established giants. Equally comfortable as a project leader or a teammate, my ultimate goal is to deliver the goods for the client. On time, on budget and above expectations. Got an upcoming project or a super-tight deadline? Both? Perfect, drop me an email and let's get started.

Catalog
80-page product catalog for M. Cornell Importers. Huge project, tons of work (layout/design, photo shoots, production/color correction, copywriting, press checks, etc), finally done. Yay.
