PROCESS
I created an outdoor magazine titled Balter Magazine. It is targeted at millennial, outdoor enthusiasts of the Western US demographic. The Spring 2016 issue focuses on nature driven adventures in the Southwest, and showcases only my photography. I chose to use a clean, simple, and yet bold design aesthetic.
