Greg Dillon
Front-end Web Developer / Photo Retoucher
For over ten years, I have been turning product photography into striking graphic images. Upon graduating from the Bowling Green State University School of Fine Art, I began working to transition a prominent Cincinnati, Ohio photography studio from a film-based operation to a solely digital operation. While there, I assisted both staff and clients with discovering the many digital imaging techniques and options available to them. This allowed the studio to not only save money, but to offer additional services and styling options to their clients, creating digital images that showcase the clients' product in the best possible way.
As a front-end web developer for a Fortune 500 retailer, I pride my-self on creating clean, hand-coded websites using modern web technologies and industry standards. While working with the corporate advertising team, I have created marketing assets for several top-rated fashion brands.
