Welcome!
I'm Luke Souders and this website was created and coded by me to serve as a place to share my creations. Everything is contained on one page, all you have to do is scroll down! However, if you'd rather jump to certain sections, there's a navbar at the bottom of the screen that will allow you to do so.
The gallery is split between two sections, Graphic Design work and Digital Photography, indicated on the navbar as Designs and Photos. My Contact information is at the bottom of the page if you'd like to get in touch!
