    Imagery

    Photography

    Editorial and quiet — reference materials, libraries, close crops of text and objects, warm natural light. Never generic AI-glow stock.

    Illustration

    Diagrammatic and archival: annotated figures, source cards, subtle teal accents on paper. Restrained, informational, book-like.
