Photography objective

Enhance artwork with imagery that takes the lyrics' messaging further
through golden light and earth tones, strong emotional portraiture, and image manipulation emulating feelings of surrender.

LP packaging design

To personify the whimsical, floating vocals of Syd, decorative typography was manipulated alongside bright yellows and oranges that characterize the upbeat groove of the bassline & drums in the album, solidifying an analogous orange-yellow, yellow, and yellow-green palette.
