Magazines
Magazines is the one category where the layout exists before the photograph does — a cover has to leave room for a masthead and headlines that haven't been written yet. On Visie, that craft spans cover and editorial photography for marques like British Vogue, Elle, Harper's Bazaar, and GQ, composed around negative space for text rather than filling the frame.
