Wedding Announcement

This is a design I created for my wife's cousin, Fawn.

This is a composite of about 3 images.  The archway was much closer together in the original, and the foliage behind them was more brown.

The Avengers Wallpaper

The Avengers comes out out in 2 weeks.  I haven't been this excited for a movie in a really long time.  

And with all the advertising for it comes tons of wallpapers and poster art.  

I've seen several but none have wowed me.  So I took elements from these, and made my own...

For your downloading pleasure, I made 3 sizes:

1024x768

1280x1024

1920x1080

Podcast Cover Art

Before/After Series - Photo Editing

This is a picture of my wife's grandparent; they are on the ends.  Apparently pictures of the two of them together are fairly hard to come by... So I was tasked with making one...

I worked as a Freelance Digital Media Specialist for LIFE as it COULD be for over a year. I did everything from web design to 4ft. posters to video editing.
