Marqx Full Time

I did it... I finally did it. I took the scary step of dumping my life of working for others and have now begun a new life of working for myself.

I'm now on Marqx Creative Communications full time.



I'd love to hear from you all if you have any suggestions as to clients that may want to reach me.

To give you a bird's eye view of my business and what work I'm looking for, I bunch up my job description in one simple term:

Creative Communications

That can be broken down into:

Photography - I currently shoot nightlife (clubs, bars, concerts), weddings/birthdays/other family events, model/actor head shots, fashion photography.

Who do you know? Do you know a clothing designer that needs photos to promote their fashion? Anybody getting married? Somebody who's had a baby and wants cool creative photos of the parents with the baby? Know somebody having a big birthday party and would want it photographed? How 'bout Real Estate agents that need professional photographs of spaces that they're selling/renting/leasing?

Graphic Design - I provide print services such as: business cards, flyers, posters, picture books, publishing, vehicle signage, and so on... If it's printed, I can most likely do it...
I also design web pages and company/personal identities (logos). Because I'm also a photographer, I can shoot your product or location and transform it into a truly "built from scratch to fit you" website.

Who do you know? Do you or somebody you know need business cards? I have a kick ass rate that beats anything out there for quality vs price. Give me a rate and I'll beat it.
Do you know event promoters looking to get posters or flyers printed? Perhaps you have a business and would like to get the word out. I can arrange that as well. Do you know somebody who wants a design printed on their car for business or simple coolness? I've got it covered too.

Event Design & Public Speaking - I design creative concepts for events promoting products, services or people and execute those events in stores, malls or any other location for that matter. I supply the equipment, the knowhow and if necessary, a team to help your event be noticed and become successful.
I've been working in the industry for 7 years promoting for such large brands as Calvin Klein, Max Azria, Vera Wang, Hugo Boss and Lacoste and have upcoming work for Gwen Stefani's LAMB, Sarah Jessica Parker's Covet and some of the new Calvin Klein and Vera Wang brands.

Who do you know? - Anybody with a product or service can use me to promote them. Do you know somebody with a local store that could use some sidewalk action or something in store to create excitement and drive sales? Do you know product Representatives that may want to use me to design and host events for them in stores or malls? I'm also open to MC'ing shows at conventions or parties.

Creative Writing - I'm also known for my capacity as a writer. I'm currently writing two books, but I'm also capable of coming up with a company name and slogan. I'm also available to help you write an amazing Resumé. If there is one skill out of them all that I could pick that stands out, that is selling people. I've written resumés and cover letters that have not only gotten people in the door, but have lead them to a job.

So now that you know what I do, please let me know if you know of anybody who could use my services. I can supply you with samples of my work as I'm sure you'll be very confident of what I'm capable of doing once you see them.

Thanks everybody... and remember: You never have to work a day in your life if you love what you do.. I love what I do!
