Shadow Catchers: Sets of Variations

Sometimes you just have to experiment with multiple variations to get just the right look— as you can see, this one was an unusual trial and error that ended well once it ended. A designer should always expect revisions and never stop trying to meet the needs of his/her client.

Not every photograph that I work with is originally my shot. Some of the projects that I design have supplied photography from agencies or local photographers, and others use stock imagery.
