Jameela Wahlgren – Designer

A professional publishing designer making beautiful covers and interiors for readers of all ages.

Overview

Hello there! I'm Jameela Wahlgren, a freelance illustrator and designer with 5 years of experience working with publishers, authors and art directors. My past clients include Disney Hyperion, Hachette Book Group, Pinterest, National Geographic Kids, Urban Outfitters and more. Recently I've been thrilled to design the book covers for New York Times bestselling author Tamara Ireland Stone's middlegrade series Click'd.

My formal education is in graphic design and I bring that expertise to the table when tackling each project. Your story, your readers and your message are all considered carefully starting with my first sketches all the way through to the final product.

When we work together you'll be working with someone who is in this field because she loves books as much as you do.

I provide design and illustration services to a number of freelance clients including Disney Hyperion, The American Reading Company, Hachette Book Publishers and more. My illustration style is graphic and bright, and I specialize in creating moods and worlds that draw the reader in at a glance. I also employ hand-drawn typography in many of my book covers.
