People often ask me about my favorite source for unique design elements, fonts, etc. and now, the cat’s out of the bag! The big secret? Creative Market. If you haven’t visited before—you are missing out! With over 3 million design tools from creators around the world, there’s truly something for everyone. (And on the off chance you don’t find what you’re looking for, create it and join the community by opening your own Creative Market shop!)
It’s my go-to place when I need new inspiration or something fun to put the finishing touch on a course or project. Students, designers, and other photographers are often curious about the typefaces I choose, so I’ve built a collection of some of my favorite fonts, featuring the kinds of special touches and unique styles that I specifically seek to incorporate into my work. (Things like OpenType features, dingbats, ligatures, stylistic alternates, etc.) Take a browse and see what lights your fire!
Whatever you do, don’t miss their weekly selection of free downloads—perfect for practicing and exploring. (I dare you not to lose the next 20 minutes drooling over all the eye candy you’re about to see.)
The only question left is, what will you make? Tag me on instagram and let me know what you do with your favorite finds!

After years of admiring well crafted fonts from a distance, I decided to get up close and personal by creating my own. The result is Happy Thoughts, a hand printed typeface with extras like ligatures, stylistic alternates, and multi-lingual support. You can grab it for just $12 at Creative Market or in my shop. Happy fonting!
