Your words. My tiles.
Brands hire me because I know how to make images that stop scrolls, do real numbers, and turn audiences into the kind of people who screenshot and share. A decade of doing it has earned features in Forbes, BBC, Yahoo, and Cosmopolitan. The wooden-tile letter commissions are one proven way I do that — custom phrases hand-laid in studio, shot for your campaign, licensed to your brand.
The words become the thing.
Every commissioned phrase is hand-laid in wooden-tile letters, shot in studio on paper backgrounds, and delivered as a high-resolution image licensed for your use. Background color is fully customizable — finalized in post to match your brand palette.
The result has weight, shadow, depth, and texture. It earns its place on a campaign, a cover, a label, or a wall.
Brands, editorial teams, packaging designers, art directors, and creative leads who need a phrase rendered as a physical object with real shadow and material.
Album campaigns, book jackets, product launches, editorial spreads, retail signage, gallery commissions. Not currently accepting personal or hobby requests.
A decade of making the work move.
I've been shooting professionally for over a decade. My work lives in Forbes, BBC, Cosmopolitan, Yahoo, Psychology Today, HuffPost, BuzzFeed, and Figma. I shot a Forbes portrait of former Facebook civil rights counsel and was flown to Meta HQ to document their Juneteenth event. I've held Pexels Hero status for nearly a decade — a recognition awarded to a small fraction of contributors — and have hit 1M+ monthly views consistently since 2017.
The wooden-tile letter series is one of my signature bodies of work. Tactile, language-forward, deliberately analog in a world that's defaulted to digital type. When you commission a phrase, you're getting a senior photographer with a real archive — not a stock font dropped over a beige background.

Bring me the phrase.
The more you tell me up front, the faster I come back with real numbers and a realistic timeline. If you're still in early concept stage, that's fine — note it in the brief and we'll figure it out together.
