Cathy and Beth create exotic custom jewelry.

They needed a LookBook to show buyers this week in Manhattan.  Last Monday, they designed the layout using the PhotoBook Press Design Tool; and we printed, bound, stamped with a custom die of their logo, and delivered their books in less than 4 days.

WoW!!

On their website, www.catherinebeth.com, Cathy & Beth describe their concept…

It’s earthy and edgy. It’s classic and clean. It’s the kind of line that appeals to a variety of clients because the pieces are so versatile. They can be worn separately or layered, long or short, with jeans or a cocktail dress. Somehow the jewelry takes on the personality of the person wearing it and looks good on everyone. From sandalwood to ebony, rose gold to pave diamonds they are not afraid to combine textures and metals with leather and gems. And they are constantly evolving so one never feels as if they’ve already seen that before.

This beautiful jewelry has already caught a mention for its “new direction” in Elle magazine, March 2011 edition.

They certainly caught our attention!

Jack Nelson, a friend and great sculptor, has been creating catalogs of his art that he distributes to his gallery customers.  These beautiful photo books are a key part of his marketing effort since they make it possible for a gallery to showcase all his pieces, while only having one or two on the show room floor.

The most recent soft cover catalog is almost as beautiful as his cast resin works of art.

Take a look…

These unique pieces are the result of a complex creative and production process. Photography captures the reflected light in these pieces in a unique way.

Jack describes his inspiration and art :

The way the sun plays on the water, the way the wind fills a sail, the way the water carves a stone — all inspire me to create shapes that move, dance and play. I have chosen resin casting as my medium because of its unique ability to capture light — which is, after all, the essence of what we see. Because of this quality, the pieces I create are always alive — the light sparkles and moves over the curves and throughout the whole form to remind me of the way sunlight dances on the water, or ice crystals float on the wind. My work connects me to the natural world that I love.

Artists often need portfolio books to supplement a gallery showing. PhotoBook Press fine art photo books in a catalog or portfolio presentation format are perfect for photographs, but are equally wonderful for any fine art that can be captured in a digital image, such as paintings, ink drawings, and sculpture.
