NEW YORK (April 21, 2009) - Decker Design has been selected as a Webby Award Official Honoree for Best Use of Photography for ,“On the Water,” a web site Decker Design created to promote the work of noted New York City based photographer John Madere, today announced Lynda Decker.

“Photography is a key element of many of our visual communications strategies, so this award is especially meaningful to us,” said Lynda Decker, founder and president of a visual communications design firm Decker Design. “John Madere is a gifted photographer and we think the way the images are used clearly communicates the unique emotional quality of his work.”

This award is geared toward sites that rely heavily on photographic imagery as a critical part of the user experience. Decker Design was honored along side The Curious Case of Benjamin Button designed by projectc.net and Routan Babymaker 3000 created by Crispin Porter + Bogusky, among others.
