Additions to the OM4 stable of literature… thanks Glenn for letting me loose with the texta illustrations again.

John Rice Photographer brand & website
January 12th, 2012 by Tracy
John Rice is the perfect client & a brilliant wedding photographer: talented, entertaining & personable, with a singular eye for artistic photography.
The brief for this job was to present John’s special take on wedding photography: capturing the love between the bride & groom and recording that connection in a photo-journalistic, natural way.
Developing a brand came so easily: just connect the dots between John’s surname, the tradition of throwing rice at weddings, and the suggestion of a camera lens – we had the basis of a brand that conveys the right message without competing with the photographic images. The business cards are letterpress printed, and the lens shape serves as a diecut / viewing window suggesting John’s visual take on the world.
John is opening a second studio in Margaret River, so will be the perfect choice for your Down South wedding if you too feel the magic in his light-painted images.
Fotos from Frith

If Rob Frith is my most-mentioned (& oft-quoted) photography reference, it’s because he is the mostest!
DeRay & Simcoe printed cards
September 20th, 2011 by Tracy
And here are the final embossed DeRay & Simcoe cards. A very fine print/emboss job by the Pilpel blokes.
We printed these one PMS – each girl’s card alternates the grey & white scheme, for a personalised look.
note: I do believe the girls use equipment a little more updated than my Brownie 127 camera.
New Stationery DeRay&Simcoe
September 20th, 2011 by Tracy
I love a trip to the printers to check on a job. Not just because it’s a chance to escape from the desk – it’s gratifying to see the end-product after the design gestation period.
Making eNewsletters Fun
September 13th, 2011 by Tracy
I’ve whipped up a few eNewsletters now, but designing for Rob Frith allows a little more creativity and personality to be injected… in fact, it’s de rigueur! So I broke out the fat Texta and drew a couple of loose illustrations as changeable headers for Rob’s amusing missives.
Just received Rob’s first info-tainment instalment this morning – funny to see my design sitting in the Inbox – and looking forward to reading more of Rob & his gang’s shootings.
New Wheels
September 7th, 2011 by Tracy
I’m free-wheeling around my office on a fabulous new Aeron chair! A long-overdue replacement for the tired foam-cushioned office chair from last century. While still working out the levers & adjustments, I’m having fun imitating an exec leaning back in the power position. I love the Forward Tilt and my sacral dysfunction loves the posture-fitting Aeron form.
I wish my work days could be spent lounging around like Trixie, but long hours at the computer require ergonomic considerations.
Folio for Minimalists
September 6th, 2011 by Tracy
My friend Claudia showed me this neat iPad app, Minimal Folio. Present your portfolio in swipe-friendly columns for a non-linear iPad presentation.
It handles images & PDFs, integrates with Dropbox, works very intuitively. Bargain @ $2.99.
Just love the thumbnail view.
