I am a photographer and publications designer passionate about vibrant, nostalgic, and edgy work. I specialize in studio photography, image retouching, developing layouts in Indesign, creating brand elements with Adobe Illustrator, and design research. My portfolio highlights my ability to utilize image, color, and type to create vibrant, cohesive designs. I’m excited to see where the skills I developed at MacEwan take me in the future.

Projects

Amour Dure

This project explores how typography can be used to enhance storytelling. Amour Dure utilizes multiple typefaces and textures to push the horror genre.

The use of a baseline grid and an understanding of typical book conventions were absolutely crucial to the success of this project.

Label size 3"x5"

Flowers in My Head - Editorial Photography

This project explores editorial photography using strobes on location. Inspired by eco-brutalism, this photoset invites viewers to think about the 40-hour work week and how that impacts their relationship with the earth.

Old Fashioned

This project aimed to style and photograph a liquid using in-studio strobe lighting. Inspired by the 1970s, this photo utilizes lighting to create a minimalistic but dramatic portrayal of a classic cocktail: The Old Fashioned.

Up and Over (Record competition)

This album design was created for Up and Over Trios’ self-titled debut jazz album. The design system utilizes colour and line to imitate the lights in a jazz bar. In combination with typography, the whole set gives a distinctly classic and vintage vibe.
