Hi, I’m Dominique from EcoFin Creations, a multidisciplinary creative based in New Zealand, specialising in photography, graphic design, illustration and visual storytelling. I love turning ideas into engaging visual work — whether that’s capturing meaningful moments through photography, developing creative designs, illustrating characters, creating branding concepts, or producing unique artwork for individuals and businesses. My approach combines digital design with hands-on creativity. I work across Adobe Creative Cloud, Procreate, photography, illustration and mixed media, which allows me to adapt my style to each client and project rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. I’m passionate about understanding the idea behind a project and working collaboratively with clients to create something that feels personal, purposeful and visually strong. I’m currently completing my Bachelor of Creative Media while growing EcoFin Creations into a professional multidisciplinary creative business. I’m available for freelance projects, collaborations and creative opportunities both within New Zealand and internationally.…Hi, I’m Dominique from EcoFin Creations, a multidisciplinary creative based in New Zealand, specialising in photography, graphic design, illustration and visual storytelling.

Creative Photography & Photoshop Composite
A conceptual photographic artwork combining studio photography with digital compositing and Photoshop manipulation to transform a captured movement into a surreal, cinematic scene.
The subject was photographed in motion and carefully integrated into a digitally constructed environment. Lighting, shadows, colour grading and textures were adjusted to make the separate elements feel as though they belong within the same space, while the vintage interior creates atmosphere and a sense of story.
The project explores the point where photography and digital art meet, using post-production to create an image that could not easily be captured as a single photograph.
This project demonstrates my skills in photography, Adobe Photoshop, digital compositing, masking, colour grading, image manipulation, lighting and visual storytelling. photo designer…A conceptual photographic artwork combining studio photography with digital compositing and Photoshop manipulation to transform a captured movement into a surreal, cinematic scene.

Logo design
A custom logo and brand identity concept created for EchoPrint Designs, combining photography and creative design into a single visual mark.
The camera-inspired structure immediately connects the brand to photography, while the central monogram and decorative typography give the logo its own distinctive character. The tagline “Where Creativity Meets Precision” reinforces the balance between artistic expression and attention to detail.
The monochromatic palette keeps the design versatile and allows it to work across different applications, including digital media, print materials and branding.

Magazine Spread
A conceptual magazine advertising spread created around Scandal Eau de Parfum, combining product photography, portraiture and editorial design to create a bold, luxury-inspired campaign.
The project began with a series of styled photographs exploring the perfume through dramatic lighting, rich red fabrics, close-up product imagery and portrait photography. Selected images were then developed into a cohesive magazine spread with typography and advertising copy.
The campaign concept, “Not Every Secret Stays Hidden,” connects the imagery with ideas of mystery, confidence and temptation, while the red, black and gold-inspired palette creates a dramatic and sophisticated visual identity.

Custom made cards
A personalised handmade card designed around the recipient’s career, personality and next chapter. Rather than using a traditional farewell-card format, I developed a complete concept inspired by the recipient’s background as a Creative Media lecturer and his move into policing.
The design combines a working clapperboard card with a case-file-style presentation, including a custom transfer notice and handmade details. Each element was designed, assembled and finished by hand to make the piece completely unique to the recipient.

Business Card
A business card and visual identity developed for EcoFin Creations, bringing my different creative disciplines together under one cohesive brand.
The logo combines elements representing photography, art and handmade creativity, surrounded by organic forms that reflect the “Eco” element of the brand. The flowing circular design connects the different creative areas while giving the identity a natural, handcrafted feel.
The earthy green, burgundy and neutral colour palette was chosen to create a brand that feels creative, warm and professional while still reflecting my personal style.

Book Cover Design - TypoPlay
A playful, hands-on book cover created for TypoPlay: A Creative Typography Guide, designed to make typography feel fun, experimental and approachable.
The cover combines hand-drawn lettering, dimensional letterforms, contrasting type styles, colour and decorative elements to demonstrate the variety and personality that can be achieved through typography. Rather than relying on a single polished digital style, the design intentionally celebrates experimentation and the creative process.
The visual hierarchy keeps the main title prominent while allowing the surrounding letters and shapes to become part of the overall experience.

Character Design - from real life to illustration
A character design project exploring how real people and personal memories can be transformed into stylised illustrated characters.
Using family photographs as visual references, I developed a collection of characters while retaining recognisable features such as hairstyles, clothing, glasses and individual personality. Each character was given a slightly different illustrative treatment while remaining connected to the original reference.
This project demonstrates my skills in character development, digital illustration, visual referencing, stylisation and translating real-world features into expressive character designs. designer characterdesign illustrator…A character design project exploring how real people and personal memories can be transformed into stylised illustrated characters.

Movie Poster Design
A fantasy movie poster concept inspired by Damsel, designed to communicate danger, strength and the relationship between the central character and the dragon.
The composition uses an extreme close-up of the dragon’s eye, with the silhouette of the female character reflected within it. The intense orange and red palette creates a sense of fire and danger, while the surrounding darkness adds drama and draws attention directly to the eye.
The project explores how scale, colour, silhouette and visual hierarchy can tell a story within a single image without revealing too much about the narrative.

Studio Portrait
A studio portrait series exploring dramatic lighting, colour and personality. The shoot uses a low-key lighting setup combined with strong red accent lighting to create depth, separation and a bold cinematic atmosphere.
Different poses, framing and expressions were explored throughout the session, from close portraits to wider compositions, creating a varied collection while maintaining a consistent visual style.

Photography
A selection of my photography showcasing my approach to composition, lighting, storytelling and capturing authentic moments.
My work ranges from portraits and events to creative and conceptual photography. I enjoy experimenting with natural and artificial light, different environments and perspectives to create images that have atmosphere and personality rather than simply documenting what is in front of the camera.
Each shoot is approached individually, with consideration for the client, location, mood and purpose of the final images.

A creative book cover developed to capture the mood, theme and personality of the story while creating a strong visual first impression for the reader.
The design combines illustration, composition, typography and visual storytelling, with careful consideration given to how the imagery and title work together as a complete cover.
