This was a special edition book we designed specifically for artist Brian Ajhar to be showcased during the 2010 CTN Animation Expo. This is a collection of a handful of the numerous editorial, advertising and children's book projects he has worked on throughout his 30 year career.

These are some really wonderful images and it was a real pleasure to work on this book for Brian. To see more of his work, please visit his site at www.ajhar.com.

Just in time for Halloween! This wonderful and fun book was a project we just created for folk artist Carmen Ellis. This is a collection of her most popular and personal favorite works. These characters are lovingly created in clay, oil, mixed media and sketches. Spooky Hollow features a very popular character, "Grimmy" the son of the Grim Reaper, who is really too cute to scare anyone, no matter how hard he tries.

We created this book from scratch, selecting the fonts, colors and layout of the book, breaking up the book by art type. We think it came out spooky enough for Carmen. To find out more about her artwork, please visit spookyhollow.net.

This was a small 60 page, 7 x 7 book we created for a friend who visited Boston this summer. Just your typical vacation pictures, but we put all of them together nicely as a present so that our friend will always have this book to remember the fun times.

This was yet another wonderful wedding album we recently completed. We worked with one of our favorite wedding photographers, Bryan Mikota of Mikota Photography on this project for his clients, Tina and Jung.

This book was a tribute to Monica Luedecke, the CEO of Hotze Enterprises, who is celebrating 20 years with the company. We were fortunate that our clients was extremely organized. Prior to beginning the project, she already had letters and images from each of the company employees (all 75!). We created individual pages for each employee, choosing fonts and colors that worked best. This is a surprise gift that will be presented to Monica at a party held in her honor. We wish her continued success in the future.

This is one of those wonderful projects that we look forward to working on and bringing our client's vision to life. El Zafiro is a land development project in the Mexican Pacific coastal region of Costa Alegre. Our clients had professionally shot images taken by land, sea and air. The images of this region of Mexico were a breathtaking mixture of steep cliffs, dramatic bays and beaches of all sizes. Needless to say, we found ourselves daydreaming about a vacation to this wonderful location...

We combined lush color combinations with the client images and also selected the appropriate fonts throughout the book to set the stage for this professional presentation piece.
