Ryan Mulford – Designer

You've come to the right place :) I am a professional book cover designer in Northern California, helping authors realize their vision.

Overview

Hi there! My name is Ryan, and I am a professional designer with over 15 years of experience working for top advertising agencies. I have designed for a wide range of projects, but my true passion is book cover design. As a book lover myself, I understand how important it is for authors to have a cover that accurately reflects their story and appeals to their target audience.


My diverse design background allows me to create unique and effective book covers that stand out. I work closely with authors to understand their vision and ensure that the final design captures the essence of their book. I treat every project with the same care and attention to detail that you would receive from a major publishing house, and I won't stop until you are completely satisfied with the end result.


If you have a book in need of a stunning cover, please don't hesitate to contact me to discuss your project. I would love to help bring your vision to life and create a cover that will entice readers to pick up your book for the first time. It's a fun and collaborative process, and I am dedicated to delivering the best possible results for my clients.

Ryan understood my story so well and so quickly that he only needed to submit one cover design for me to know it was the right one, and in only a week! In addition, his work on the interior layout a...

Other authors suggested having the cover design done professionally. Off to Reedsy I went! I chose Ryan Mulford afte...
