Combining two of my favourite things, photography and microphones. Whether it's capturing light or capturing sound, there's no substitute for good quality.

'I don't stop when I'm tired, I stop when I'm done' - 007 James Bond

Me too Bond, me too.
I've just completed an 8 page folded brochure showcasing Playmobil's 2022 new products available in-store soon!
So many cool characters for the next generation to connect with - from Star Trek to the timeless James Bond.

Meanwhile, graphic designer Dan Stenhouse available here for all your creative design needs...

I'd even consider trading my time for an Aston Martin if you wish 🙂

A new puzzle collection due out soon! We usually create a series of four puzzles with unique images from the same artist to encourage puzzle fans to collect the whole set.

Working on the annual yearbook for these little characters! This book showcases all the new and existing Sylvanian Families products for 2022. 48 pages of cute!

From when I was very young, I grew up playing music every Sunday at the Whangarei Country Music club with my father.
Dad was a signwriter and enjoyed making backdrops for the various clubs he was a member of.
Last year, he was looking at creating a banner for his local club but decided to hand over the reins to his son... and is really thrilled with the result!

Some photography I took of this amazing house in Mangawhai. The images were for a client who used them to showcase the laminated wood beam product in a case study for NZ Wood Products.

For over 15 years, Holdson have been a big client of mine - and jigsaw puzzle packaging makes up a large portion of that work.
It is my job to fit the artwork and wording within specific dimensions in an aesthetic way; to keep fonts and colours fresh and complimentary to the artist's design; and to complete my work within tight deadlines ready for print.
Working with Holdson has taught me so much about the printing process over the years, and they have been an amazing regular client that I have a great relationship with.

Velvet Arrow is a dark indie musical project of mine that keeps me entertained and busy when I'm not working on design work for others.
From producing music to logos and everything in between, I enjoy the creative process involved...and love seeing the finished artwork in print!
