“David was excellent. His designs were great, and his pricing very fair. When we kept making minor changes in the book, over and over, he was non-complaining in making revised book interiors. He is not a designer who pushes his ideas. He presents you with options and goes with your decision. He is direct, professional, and timely in his communication. We would absolutely use him again.”

—MATTHEW KIRCHHOFF, author of “Cabin

“David designed the cover and interior of my debut novel. He was willing to work with photographs I provided but also offered alternative covers. He answered all my many questions immediately and was patient with my lack of knowledge of the publishing process. To authors looking for exceptional collaboration to enhance their projects, I highly recommend hiring David Ter-Avanesyan.”

—MARY BROOKMAN, author of “Once”

“David Ter-Avanesyan, Design. First and foremost, he is a creative professional. Upon delivering my exterior and interior photographic book to David, it was a collaboration. He informed me of the steps that would take place. I also shared my concepts with him. He handled my project with care. I learned quite a few things along the way, and I am grateful for his knowledge and patience. His creativity, concepts, and experience are brilliant. My book Gratitude is stunning because of David Ter-Avanesyan!”

—KELLY JOHNSON, author of “Gratitude”

“David did a fantastic job on the cover designs of four of my books for eBook, paperback, hardback and audio book. Excellent collaboration and advice leading to audience-centric covers that convert. I would highly recommend David and look forward to working with him again!”

—PAUL C. R. MONK, author of “The Huguenot Connection Trilogy”

“I can’t say enough good things about David. He is a cheery, fast, precise, high-quality-delivery team member and I will never need to shop for another cover designer should I ever dare to try releasing another book. A five-star designer to the bone! Thanks so much David for all your great help and ideas. You really hit the nail with my cover.”

—NIK GRAVESON, author of “Tough Luck Idiot”

“David is a true professional in every sense of the word. His technical skills, especially in cover design, are outstanding and it would be hard to imagine a better collaborator. He was always courteous, respectful, and prompt in replying to emails, sometimes within hours and always the same day. Based on my expressed preferences, David offered me a variety of cover options, modified those as I requested, and did not hesitate to reverse course when I eventually settled on one of his original suggestions. He quickly and accurately addressed any errors in formatting that emerged and even accommodated my last minute edits to the text and punctuation. When adjustments had to be made in the scope of the work, David accepted an expanded role and was always fair in adjusting his fee. As a first-time self-publisher, I truly appreciated David’s patience and professionalism.”

—ALAN BODNAR, author of “Simply Human”

“David’s professionalism is of very high quality. He responds fast, his work is artistic. He made several suggestions that improved the cover design. His knowledge extends to the details of what it takes to get the cover uploaded for publication. I enjoyed cooperating with David and would recommend him without any hesitation.”

—BRUNO JAMBOR, author of “Passage to Sunrise”

—DAVID TEMPLE, author of “Knuckle Down”

“David Ter-Avanesyan is an impressive designer. A versatile professional with a knack for translating brand equity into any design, he can create infographics just as well as he can book covers. He listens to understand, is prompt and easy to work with, and he upholds the highest of standards in his designs. He exceeded my expectations at every interaction and with every design we worked on. If you’re looking for a designer who works quickly, is open to direction and change, and always nails the look you were looking for, go with him. Highly recommended!”

—NATALIA MACRYNIKOLA, Former Group Editor, lifestyle content publisher Studio One

“I think David Ter-Avanesyan is one of the most dynamic, creative and innovative graphic designer’s in the field today. I always look so forward to photo shoots with him because of not only the profound ideas he brings with him; but also because of the collaborative effort that he practices on the set about how to most precisely express these ideas with the elements we have. He is perfectly fearless in his pursuit for the ideal expression that we sometimes put things together in new ways that begin to form new meanings and more evocative images. David is very comfortable with expanding the concept or experimenting with lighting. To look at David’s drawings would be an adventurous meditation of his quite unique visual talents. I love the intricacies and profundity. What a magical and precise vision. I look forward to seeing his future projects and art. I’m sure he will continue to amaze!”

—BARRY DAVID MARCUS, Photographer
