Hello! I’m Robert,
a digital designer
based in Tucson.
I’m focusing on book design/production
While I offer complete design services, I'm currently focusing on book design and production.
What does this mean for you?
If you are an author or a publisher with a book project, bring it to me and I'll design the cover and pages, do all the layout, type-setting, paste-up, image editing, and provide files that are press-ready for your chosen printer.

My Services

AfterEffects
Animation
Stock Photography
I spent the first 22 years of my career as a commercial studio photographer. During time out of the studio, I supplemented doing freelance work for outdoor and travel clients. This allowed me to build an extensive library of stock photographs in a variety of subject areas. I offer them now at a competitive price for a wide-variety of uses.

Working Process
Concept
and Strategy
If you're an author or a publisher with a book project, bring it to me. I've worked with independent authors and with publishers that don't have the staff or the time to complete the project themselves.
I'll take the time to listen to your ideas of what you want the piece to look like; what you want it to convey to the reader.
I'll put together a concept for your approval. Once a design is approved, you supply the text and any artwork/images and I'll put together the cover and pages, do all the layout, type-setting, paste-up, image editing, and provide files that are press-ready for your chosen printer, providing proofs at each step of the process.
I work on an hourly fee. I'll provide you with cost analysis so there are no surprises.
