Book Design and Fine Photography
A book designer for more than twenty years. A photographer since the days of darkrooms. Giles Hoover is able to combine photography and design into the best book projects imaginable. Put his creativity to work for you.
With more than twenty years’ experience, Giles has worked on a huge variety of titles and would be happy to work with you. Bring your project to a wider audience with sophisticated design.
For years, Giles has packed up a camera and headed off for a photostroll — by car, on foot, even in a canoe. He’s traveled the US East Coast from Maine to Florida, to England, and as far west as Texas, all with camera in-hand, in search of architecture and landscapes that would look great hanging on a wall . . . or used on a book cover.

Giles has worked with book design clients ranging from self-publishers to universities to worldwide corporations, taking the disparate pieces that make up a book’s identity and turning them into something that leaps off the shelf — sometimes by including original photography.
Giles has combined his love of architecture, nature, and details of all sorts into photographic prints folks are happy to frame and hang on the wall.
