A nod to local Vancouver talent - Mark James

The team at Free Agency Creative recently had the pleasure of connecting with Vancouver art director/designer Mark James. He boasts a sophisticated body of work that pivots one way or another on fashion. As you page through his printed work for local fashion brands such as Kersh, Nicole Bridger and Anna Kosturova, his forte with imagery and art direction become clear.

One can't help but appreciate his ability to find balance within each image through his strong sensitivity with colour, light and composition. He successfully unifies the models within their landscapes and surroundings - all the while championing the clothing. He's then able to weave the story of each image into a larger narrative within a particular DPS or the entire catalog.

All the technicalities aside...the work is beautiful, yet honest.
