An editorial spread I did for Outdoor Design and Living Guide based out of Fargo, ND. The article is more of a guide to all of the great eating places within the lakes country part of Minnesota, or “The Land of 10,000 Lakes” as known by their license plates. The article originally came to me with a different title, but as my concept started to take shape it was apparent it would need to change to support the imagery.

In the end, it was more impactful for everyone.

This was one of those concepts that once you have it figured out and are excited about it, you take a minute to think…”Man, can I actually pull this off?” Two hours of clone stamping, masking, dodging and burning, I believe I made it happen.

I love this spread.
