Faith, a quarterly magazine provided to the membership of a large Methodist church, emphasizes strong visuals and human-interest stories. The overall theme of this issues was a year recap and the Advent (Christmas) season.
Since this publication's introduction two years ago, it has quickly become the church's most popular piece. Members often use it to tell friends or neighbors about their church or leave it out in their homes or offices.

This cover was shot to highlight purple (the color of Advent in the Methodist Church) and the custom ornaments, called chrismons, which were made and donated by members. This scene was laid out and then photographed from above. Several of the lighter ornaments were then reshot in a studio and added back in with Photoshop.
This was a custom spread to announce the year's largest youth event. See all the promotional materials here.
