Career Advice for High School Students – Custom Book Cover Design
Planning for life after high school can feel overwhelming, and a helpful career guide should feel welcoming from the first glance. For Career Advice for High School Students by Dr. Jeannine Bennett, I created a custom nonfiction book cover in Adobe Photoshop, combining original photography, light photo retouching, and clear typography. The design introduces the book’s practical guidance on choosing a college, writing a resume, finding an internship, and preparing for future opportunities.
This project has a personal connection: the model on the front cover is my daughter. Her friendly expression gives the cover an approachable feel, while the bright blue Vision to Purpose folder connects the photograph with Jeannine’s career coaching business. Bringing original photography into the design made this a particularly memorable collaboration with a longtime client and friend.
The blue and white color palette keeps the presentation fresh and clear, with flowing script for the title and a straightforward checklist highlighting the book’s benefits. A gold badge draws attention to the included resources, while burgundy accents carry through the photograph, checkmarks, and spine. I coordinated the front cover, spine, and back cover, bringing the book summary, author photograph, and biography into a consistent layout.

My work with Jeannine has grown into more than a decade of collaboration across books, websites, and marketing materials. Along with this cover, I’ve designed Brewing Success: A Job Seeker’s Guide to Networking, Breathe Life into Your Resume, and God’s Word Is Greater.
