I had the pleasure of attending my first Society of Adventist Communicators — SAC — conventions this past month in Albuquerque, New México. This was also the first communications convention I attended as a professional and I’m so glad that God led me here! There were so many other talented as well as inspiring individuals who attended and I’m grateful to have made meaningful connections with them. The tours and workshops were led by such passionate people and I learned a ton. And to make things even better my mom and I won awards for our Roots almanac project! We are honored and humbled to have received these awards as well as look forward to possibly developing Roots into a real-world product. My first experience at SAC was one to remember. God showed me much over those few days. I’m excited to apply as well as pass on what I learned. Can’t wait for next year’s convention in Chicago! — You can view more of the Roots project by visiting the link in my bio 🌱 — Also, special thanks to @hotelalbuquerque for being a great host and providing good food! . . . . . #Godisgood #adventistcomm #SAC2019 #purpose #passion #partnership #humansofadventism #sda #designconference #communicationdesign #visualcommunication #printdesign #publicationdesign #designforchange #designforgood #storytelling #minimalist #collectgraphics (at Albuquerque, New Mexico) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4a6NeVlFEM/?igshid=1i2hffwcd7mm9

We drove 5 hours to the desert where we spent an additional few capturing months of planning and storyboarding. I’m grateful to have had the team God brought me because if it wasn’t through our teamwork and the expertise each of them possessed, this campaign would not have been realized as astonishingly.

This series observes the carefree nature of coastal living through candid shots that are simplistic and nostalgic. I wanted to explore how the images could live within a publication. The interaction with copywriting and typography on the page gives the opportunity for heightened storytelling—that being the serenity of coastal living in Corpus Christi. @cerealmag was chosen as a hypothetical platform as the publication is known for its documentation of unique travel destinations and laidback lifestyle. See more of the project by visiting the Editorial section of my portfolio listed in my bio. — @cerealmag is a biannual, travel, and style magazine based in the United Kingdom. Each issue focuses on a select number of destinations alongside engaging interviews as well as stories on unique design, art, and fashion. All elements used throughout these spreads including the Cereal lettermark are copyrighted by @cerealmag. The layouts are inspired by the publication's redesign by @studiofaculty. Copywriting courtesy of Art Leatherwood, @realtexashistory. The typefaces used are GT America by @grillitype and PS Fournier by @stephaneelbaz. — Photographed by @markbakersanchez at Padre Ballí Park in Corpus Christi on August 18, 2018. . . . . . #cerealmag #cerealmagazine #noicemag #archivecollectivemag #kinfolk #hypebeast #vscocam #minimal #rsa_minimal #magazinecover #magazinedesign #publicationdesign #bookdesign #typography #layoutdesign #artdirection #photojournalism #documentaryphotography #typedirectorsclub #typedesign (at Corpus Christi, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzGmDJIlCnn/?igshid=q0z5xizxn89b

Social constructs restrict self-acceptance — Many of us can’t fit in. Many of us won’t fit in. But it’s our individual uniqueness that makes each and every one of us beautiful. We cannot allow standards of the world to define who we are—it restricts our self-acceptance. Let’s be #DONE with it. Let’s challenge the status quo together. — Photographed by @zoeeeeariel Designed by @markbakersanchez . . . . . #challengethestatusquo #socialchange #designforchange #photojournalism #documentaryphotography #fashion #culture #fashionphotography #LensCultureDiscovery #blackandwhite #blackandwhitephotography #conceptualphotography #fineartphotography #artdirection https://www.instagram.com/p/BppXtwEFtth/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1gnm8rkj15a9m

Social constructs cause emotional pain — This self-portrait of @markbakersanchez communicates the emotional toll of fitting into society. People don’t need to conform themselves to idealistic standards. We are #DONE.

Social constructs are not made to fit — @donethemagazine serves to challenge the idealistic perceptions and standards of beauty perpetuated in the fashion industry. This will be done by shining a light on issues of discrimination including tokenism and raising cultural awareness in an effort to provide a presence for the unknown. It’s time for true change.
