AKiN'S Natural Foods | Arkansas Commercial Photo + Video

Long before the infamous grocery store chain known as Whole Foods invaded Fayetteville and Rogers, another establishment quietly but firmly took up residence in the area. Since 2014, Akin's Natural Foods has been serving our community with carefully curated grocery items, fresh, organic produce and the largest selection of vitamins and supplements in the area. But Akin's history is much older than 2014. In fact, Akin's was established and has been operating in the neighboring city of Tulsa Oklahoma since 1935, long before the founders of Whole Foods were in diapers. 

Aside from grocery items, produce and supplements, Akin's also offers many healthy grab 'n go options such as soups, a salad bar, fresh house-made sushi, sandwiches and smoothies. And Ramen lovers can rejoice as well, because they have that too! And best of all, the staff are friendly, helpful and approachable. In fact, you'll probably end up making some new friends like I did when I was there. As a Tulsa Oklahoma native, I am no stranger to this franchise and I am super excited to have one close by in Rogers. I'm even happier that I have the opportunity to work with them on a professional level. 

For more information, visit Akin's Natural Foods online or drive there and experience it for your self.

This year marks the 20th year of Novo Studio.

And so this year, we celebrate.

All year.

Cheers.

Walter's Boot & Shoe Repair | Arkansas Commercial Photo + Video Production

For years, Walter’s Boot & Shoe Repair has been located just steps from our studio. And for more years than we’ve been in existence, they’ve been firmly planted in the Downtown Rogers community, repairing shoes and leather goods. To walk into the shop these days is equal parts intrigue and nostalgia. The shop has been somewhat updated since the original owner, Carl Walter retired years ago. These days, his nephew Aaron, his wife Kim, their son Cody, and a talented hat maker named Clara work in the shop. And while you can finally use credit cards to pay for your repairs or purchases, many of the original details were thoughtfully left or repurposed in the shop. Most of the machines are original to the shop, some dating back to the late 40’s. And yet they still work as good as when they were new, thanks to Aaron’s knowledge and care. Awhile back, we had the opportunity to hang out in the shop with the purpose of creating some photo and video content. And today on the blog, we’re excited to share a bit of both. Please enjoy this All American story of history and craftsmanship.
