Brands are silent ambassadors for businesses or organizations. For best results, in addition to creative graphics, careful consideration needs to be given to the client’s mission, services, products, personality, competition and specific marketing environment.
We plan, design, and prepare print collateral and print advertising. In addition to our many print collateral projects, our designs have also appeared in scores of publications including San Francisco Magazine, Carmel Magazine and The Wall Street Journal.
We use the latest versions of Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator software. But these are only tools. We apply our artistic touch when creating graphic art concepts, illustrations, renderings, and finished artwork for a variety of projects and applications.
From comprehensive signage programs for 5-star resorts to historic exhibits for a heritage society, the process remains the same. Listen to the client, gather assets and information, carefully measure the physical space, create preliminary layouts and concepts, obtain client approvals, produce the signs or exhibits, and coordinate installation.
A picture can say a thousand words. Great photography is often part of what we do in marketing and storytelling. When “in the moment”, and “available light” photography is needed, I shoot it. I can then work some additional “magic” in post-production with Photoshop. When stock images fit the need for another type of image, I selectively access my shutterstock account for a quality solution.
Our preferred web building platforms are WordPress and Squarespace. Both are responsive across all devices. We prepare an outline wire frame as a reference for the client’s input prior to building out the site. It’s important to keeping SEO in mind. Once the building begins, the client has access to the site to check progress. Once approved, then it’s time to launch!
