Flathead Living Magazine

Flathead Living is a premier lifestyle magazine engaging tens of thousands of readers in both print and online across the region, including western Montana and the Canadian provinces of Alberta and British Columbia.

During a one-year transition between publication owners, I served as dual roles as Creative Director and Production Manager designing both editiorial and ads.

Cover Designs

Cover design to optimize shelf interest as the magazine was broadly distributed throughout valley kiosks.

Kootenai Lodge Article

Created editorial graphics to complement the “Old Montana” historical vibe of the article on this subject’s exceptional architectural and geographical qualities.

Kootenai Angler Article

This was one of my favorite stories about driftboating one of America’s most pristine stretches of flyfishing water. In fact, most of the articles wonderfully captured the unique experiences of living in northwest Montana.

Ad Design
Countryside Welding

I am always intrigued with the challenge to present an unexpected mental pivot to each business promotion when advertisers seek a truly custom ad. This provided an opportunity to create a mystical headline for a valley welder.

Ad Design
Flathead Lake Lodge

In collecting materials for this lodge, I stumbled upon an old letter from a young guest to their parents and built a custom ad and slogan around it.
