Well, here we are in May of 2020, also known as Bike Month. Traditionally, we’ve celebrated with numerous social gatherings, group rides and even a large Square to Square event. No one could’ve predicted that this year, we’d have to juggle celebrating bikes and our beloved cycling community while dealing with the realities of a worldwide pandemic. Like so very many, we’ve gained a newfound love and appreciation for…(click to read more)

How do you compile a decade’s worth of images and stories into a single blog post? If you ever figure it out, please let me know. In the meantime, this a best attempt at highlighting some of the ongoing clients, fun jobs and unique ingredients that have compiled the last 10 years of Novo Studio.

Enjoy.

It’s always a pleasure to work with the folks at Bike Arkansas Magazine. This issues assignment had me chasing Traci Berry through the new Northwoods Trails in Hot Springs, Arkansas. Traci is the…

It's that time of year again; The time of year where I try to recap an entire year's worth of photography work in a couple of blog posts and by doing so, post WAY too many photos. First up, a look back at my year in Lifestyle and Commercial Photographs. Enjoy. 

A few months back, I had the opportunity to photograph one of Bentonville's newest renovations. The building, formerly home to the Benton County Daily Record Newspaper, is now a hip new event space simply known as "Record". And thanks to The Ropeswing Group, the transformation from derelict and empty to posh and modern is simply stunning. The space has already played host to a couple major events, the Made By Few Conference and the International Mountain Bike Associations World Summit and no doubt the new year will bring more. Here's a few images I collected from my time there. Enjoy. 

Christmas for me came early this year, in the form of a Media Pass from Bike Arkansas Magazine, for the International Mountain Bike Association (IMBA) World Summit. Bentonville played host to the biennial event which can best be summed up as...

Happy Fall Everyone. The new Bike Arkansas Magazine recently hit the shelves, stands and displays around here and it's chock-full of valuable information on everything from enjoying the local trails, to gear suggestions and probably most importantly, the upcoming International Mountain Bike Association (IMBA) World Summit. Today, I'm sharing a few of my favorite images from the recent shoots for this edition. Hopefully, they inspire you to get out and ride.

Cheers.

Today on the blog, I'm excited to be sharing images from this year's commercial photography projects. I have developed a strong love for telling stories of products, people, environments and companies through imagery and over the years, I've had the privilege of working on some very interesting projects. 2015 was certainly no exception. Many many thanks to the clients who made these images possible. 

Say hello to The Highroller Cyclery. Since 1972, they've been helping people experience the joy and the adventure of cycling. They started out in Fayetteville and in 2013, opened their second location in Rogers. I was hired to produce an updated website for them and of course, that meant spending some time photographing their locations as well. Here are a few of my favorite images from this project. Enjoy.

Say hello to the Phat Tire Racing Team. But make it quick, because they'll be long gone before you get to the double ll's. These riders are the real deal. They train together, race together, hang out and even volunteer together. And while they train on all of the nearby trials, their home turf is the Slaughter Pen Mountain Bike trails of Bentonville Arkansas. This particular trail system is certified as a Silver Level Ride Center by the International Mountain Bicycling Association (IMBA), making it a destination for out-of-towners and local riders alike. I recently had the opportunity to hang out with some of the riders that make up the Phat Tire Racing Team and I managed to get them to slow down enough for a few photos. Look for the complete story in the upcoming issue of Bike Arkansas Magazine. Cheers. 

It's common knowledge among anyone that knows me well, that the opportunity to photograph anything bike related would be considered a dream job. And a couple weeks ago, I had the opportunity to spend a couple of days doing just that.
