Magazine Article Layout

This is an InDesign project that I had a lot of fun with. We were required to do a cover page, table of contents, and two page article spread. I enjoyed doing this as it was different than anything else I've worked on so far & I was pleased with the outcome.




Logo

This first logo was an assignment requirement for my 2D course. There are a few things I'd like to go back and fix, such as perhaps the text, and I'm hoping I will sometime get time to.



A Movie Poster Make-Over

As a photoshop assignment we were required to "re-make" a movie poster by taking 3 or more separate images & combining them together to make them believable as one single image. I chose to make-over the Juno movie poster. I wanted to keep the general feel of the original poster but opted to exclude the faces in order to put the focus on the pregnant belly and "adoption classifieds" newspaper stack. There is definitely plenty of room for touch ups on this project, but being one of the first of it's kind that I've had to do I thought I'd post it anyways. Just ignore some of the rough edges.....thank you :D

Graduation Announcements

Below are some graduation announcements I designed for my cousin. Jessi wanted a green, purple, and brown color palette. (Although I had to throw the brown and yellow one in as well... :D)








My Wedding Announcement

For some reason these images posted small, if you'd like a better look you can click on each image and it should enlarge.















These are the inserts we used for the gift registry and the sealing session:

Welcome!

I am not the greatest blogger in the world.....but only because I can't seem to find the time to do as much as I would like. So why would I bother to have 2 blogs, you may ask? Well...I decided I need a way to show some of my design work, without the hassle of continually loading & emailing samples and projects to those who are interested in having me do some work for them. Second of all, I'm hoping perhaps this will help get the word out & open some doors to more opportunities for creating design projects for people as I work my way through school & try to build up a portfolio. The bonus is, any project I may do for someone will be very reasonably priced, to say the least, because we both will win. My sole focus is the mere opportunity to gain some experience for myself as I help you out by designing whatever it is you're looking for, and not for financial gain. So, if you're in need of any type of announcement, invitation, note card sets, or anything else you can think of, feel free to let me know & help spread the word!
