Steve Ellwood

Senior Art Director & Photographer at LHWH

Steve’s career began in Detroit, where he worked as a technical illustrator and automotive interior designer. In 1980, he traded the Motor City for Myrtle Beach, and has supercharged its advertising scene ever since. Since joining LHWH in 1995, he’s been responsible for art and creative direction on projects including design for print, display, and digital campaigns. Most notably, Steve was the creative lead on award-winning work for Ripley’s Aquarium. The “That’s A Moray” billboard from that campaign, which won local and regional Best of Show Addy awards, was an Obie Finalist – making LHWH the only agency in the Carolinas to receive that prestigious national distinction in that year.

Steve is also an accomplished photographer. During daytime shoots he focuses on wildlife. At night, he specializes in telescope-assisted astrophotography. (Seriously. You can’t make this stuff up.) Steve’s work has been published by National Geographic a whopping nine times and has also been featured in Astronomy Magazine, Nightsky Magazine and numerous local and regional publications.
