My name is Rachel Oglesby.
I am a formally trained artist specializing in creative direction, graphic design, and photography.
Creative Direction: Creative Directors guide the creative scope and process by drawing upon their education and experience to ensure that creative projects are on target and delivered on time. They guide, mentor, and inspire the creative team – performing a critical role in the development of powerful cohesive concepts.

Graphic Design: “Graphic design is undertaken to convey a specific message (or messages) to a targeted audience, usually from the client, known as the ‘brief’. The term “graphic design” can also refer to a number of artistic and professional disciplines that focus on visual communication and presentation.” [read more]

Photography: “A photographer (from Greek φωτός (photos), meaning “light”, and γράφω (graphos), meaning “written”) is a person who takes photographs. A professional photographer uses photography to earn money; amateur photographers take photographs for pleasure and to record an event, emotion, place, or person.
A professional photographer may be an employee, for example of a newspaper, or may contract to cover a particular event such as a wedding or graduation, or to illustrate an advertisement. Others, including paparazzi and fine art photographers, are freelancers, first making a picture and then offering it for sale or display. Some workers, such as policemen, estate agents, journalists and scientists, make photographs as part of other work. Photographers who produce moving rather than still pictures are often called cinematographers, videographers or camera operators, depending on the commercial context.
Photographers are also categorized based on the subjects they photograph. Some photographers explore subjects typical of paintings such as landscape, still life, and portraiture. Other photographers specialize in subjects unique to photography, including street photography, documentary photography, fashion photography, wedding photography, war photography, photojournalism, and commercial photography.” [read more]
