This is a 50th Birthday Party Invitation I recently designed for my own mom’s surprise party. And below was the banner I put together to match the invitation. We didnt want to do a black over the hill theme so we went for a more classy fall look. It was a big hit and we got her good!

This is business card I designed for a Seismologist, the study of earthquakes and elastic waves through the Earth, in South Pasadena, California. I really tried to incorporate how the Earth shifts and the waves it produces when there is an earthquake, into the card design. Susan Hough is also an author and has written books such as Earthshaking Science, Richter’s Scale and Predicting the Unpredictable.

So about a year and half ago I worked with Tom of Tom Schmidt Photography to create this logo below. On this side of Tom’s photography business he focuses on senior photos, fashion and commercial.

This year he wanted to recreate his brand for his wedding business (him and his dad work together shooting weddings, Tom shoots the engagements). This is what we came up with:

Since Tom does the engagements on his own and the photo shoots are a totally different feel – more grungy and fun, he wanted to brand that as well. Below is the new engagement logo.
