Design Challenge:: Create
unique cover that conveys the content in a visually
pleasing way. Must work without a photography budget.
Solution:: Stock
photography was key to creating this book cover since
a photoshoot wasn't possible. Multiple combinations of
photos were presented to Courtney Waller,
the author. She felt the final montage best represented
her original design criteria. By flowing the images from
front to back, there is a stronger sense of unity. Muted
colors and image subjects work to create a natural feeling
of the many seasons of life.
Client Viewpoint:: When
I am promoting Seasons Come, people always want
to know where the beautiful cover design came from. I
know that it helps sell the books because it captures
the essence of my poetry.
