Tradeshow graphic for Shelmarc Carpets

This is a trade show graphic that I made for Shelmarc Carpets. I used a baroque-inspired theme that complimented the patterns of the carpet. The graphic size is roughly 8′ W x 6′ H, so the small text is significantly more readable than it is in this low-res version. I was really happy with the way this one turned out.

The ruins at Sope Creek

Here’s a few shots from my recent photoshoot with Matt Barnett of the old industrial ruins at Sope Creek in Marietta, GA. In the 1800′s, this mile-long strip of land alongside the creek included a paper mill, twine plant and flour mill. During the Civil War, these buildings were used for the production of Confederate money, and were subsequently destroyed by the Union Army.
