Brian Cummings Gets Along With All Along Press

Brian Cummings. Commercial photographer. Director. Known for unique conceptual images and ideas. His interest in satire and narrative influences his work behind the camera. As a director, Brian draws on his conceptual chops and design sensibilities to compose striking stories ranging from humorous to dramatic to surreal.

Most everything we do is collaborative in nature. Words from the creatives behind All Along Press work nicely into this narrative piece by Brian. More than a behind the scenes glimpse into a working letterpress studio, it takes us through the mindset as well as the typeset of why this collaboration works.

“There’s an aspect of working on something that is bigger than yourself that you’re an integral part of but it’s a way for you to make things that no one person could ever have achieved on their own.”

“At some point in your life, you’re going to look back and have a body of work. You want it to include things that are meaningful.”

“I think we’re in a very good place.”
