The raw studio work behind a brand built to Live More Life. Finished, graded, and shipped. Thirteen pieces, scattered across one canvas. Scroll to fly through them.

Ch. 01 — The Role

I finish the work the camera starts.

Across a year with Vitalyst I owned the pipeline from studio card to feed: retouching and color grading product photography, compositing campaign creative, and cutting short form video — all held to one brand system.

  • 01Retouch and color grade studio product photography to a true black finish
  • 02Composite lifestyle and studio shots into paid social and email creative
  • 03Design ingredient and campaign ads to the brand's type and color spec
  • 04Edit weekly short form video drops for Instagram and TikTok
Ch. 02 — Product Retouching

The contact sheet.

Six studio captures, each opened and finished by hand. Open any frame and drag the slider — raw on the left, final on the right.

Ch. 02 — Product Retouching

Drag to reveal the work.

True black finish, cleaned glass, rebuilt labels, matched grade. The same treatment carries from a hero still to a lifestyle frame shot on the move.

Ch. 02 — Product Retouching

One system, six frames.

Consistency was the brief: whatever the shot, the bottle reads the same — same black, same label, same falloff — so the grid never breaks when the assets land side by side in the feed.

Ch. 03 — Campaign Creative

Built for the feed.

Static ads and carousels composited and typeset to Vitalyst's system for paid social. Open any piece to view it full size.

Ch. 04 — Short Form Video

Cut for the scroll.

A run of the weekly reels — hooks, product, and cinematic cutaways, edited for Instagram and TikTok. Tap any tile to play with sound.

Ch. 05 — Brand Reference

Grounded in Utah's Mighty Five.

Every deliverable stayed inside the same four color system — the rock, clay, and sage of Arches, Bryce Canyon, Canyonlands, Capitol Reef, and Zion, against true black and warm cream.

Ch. 06 — Contact

Let's finish your next shot.

More retouching, campaign, and video work available on request. Available for freelance and full time.

About this canvas

What this is. A portfolio of the retouching, campaign design and short form video I produced for Vitalyst — a testosterone support supplement with a no BS voice — laid out as one continuous canvas instead of a stack of sections.

How to move. Scroll to fly through the six chapters. Drag anywhere to pan off the path and explore. Click a product frame to open a raw to final slider, an ad to view it full size, or a reel to play it with sound.

The system. Ink Black #1E2122, Clay #8D472E, Sage #82847A, Cream #FCF3E9 — the palette Vitalyst pulls from Utah's Mighty Five. Display type is Bebas Neue; everything else is Montserrat, the face the brand specifies.
