About
I make things that hold up after the deadline's forgotten.
I'm Wren Okafor, a designer and photographer working out of a converted textile mill in Porto. Most of what I do sits somewhere between identity design, print, and small websites — the kind of work where the client and I still argue about kerning in person.
Before going independent I spent six years at agencies learning the parts of the job nobody teaches in school: how to spec a Pantone against a client's actual printer, why a grid system needs an escape hatch, and when a project needs a photographer more than it needs another mood board.
I still shoot on film when the schedule allows it. The gallery is where those frames end up.
