Overview
Page layout, art editing stock photography, presentation work, typographic styling, and commissioning illustrators.
I specialise in illustrated non-fiction titles for both adults and children, with a particular interest in history, science, and general knowledge.
I can design both large, complex books like encyclopedias and smaller gift-style books, and both highly-illustrated titles and text-led books.
I take an active interest in the copy that I'm provided with to ensure that there is a strong link between it and the illustrations.
