Bright Idea 504: Shadow Words
Create visual impact by pairing a full-bleed photo with a coordinating collage of images. A shadowed title adds depth and dimension to the feature photo, while subtle edge shading guides the eye toward the center of the spread, allowing both the title and photos to take center stage. The result is a balanced design that highlights both the big picture and the memorable details.

Start2Finish: Eclipse
For this Start2Finish, I’m creating a layout called Eclipse - and this time, the design does the storytelling. We weren’t in the path of totality, and I didn’t have dramatic sky photos. Instead of wishing for more, I leaned into what I did have and let intentional design carry the experience. This layout is about using symbolism, typography, and journaling to turn limited photos into a powerful story.

To add a bit of interest, I’m using a tilted photo in the center of each page as the main focal point. I’ll start by building a template, then adjust it to fit my photos. That way, I’ll have the option to save the design as a reusable template for future projects.
