ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
Ben and I wish to acknowledge several people who
helped us along the way. First, our editor at Rockport
Publishers, Emily Potts. Thank you for your guidance,
support, and most of all, patience.
We also wish to give a special shout-out to three talented,
rock-star designers who contributed project samples to
our book: Bryony Gomez-Palacio, Robynne Raye, and
Sean Adams. You contributed more than just your work
and words; you really came through for us—quickly and
with few questions asked—when we needed you, which
is the truest measure of a good friend.
Next, we’d sincerely like to express our gratitude to Paul
Johnson, www.pauljohnsonphoto.com, who not only
is an amazing photographer but also one of the kindest
people we’ve had the pleasure of working with. Thank
you, Paul, for stepping up on very short notice when
we needed several work examples shot immediately
(although when looking at the images one would never
know you were rushed—they’re beautiful, as always!).
We feel lucky every time we get to collaborate with you.
A M Y GR AV E R :
I would first like to dedicate this book to my husband,
Scott, and my children, Cole and Adaline, who love me
even though I never finish my work when I say I will.
I would also like to dedicate this book to my dad who
passed away not too long ago and whom I miss every
single day. As he wrote in his dedication to me and my
brother many years ago—you made it all worthwhile.
Thanks, Dad.
BEN JURA:
To all those who have inspired me, and brought beauty
into my life—I sincerely hope that I have been expressive
enough in my deep gratitude over the years for you to
know who you are.
