Today on the blog, new work for the University of Arkansas’s Center for Farms and Food. For this photoshoot, we payed a visit to the farm at Red Barn in Bentonville, the first official residential community with an operational farm on the property. This model of living is known as an agrihood and Red Barn is the first of its kind in the state of Arkansas. Among its fresh food amenities, Red Barn also boasts beautiful living spaces, indoor/outdoor community gathering spaces and direct access to Bentonville’s nearby mountain biking trails. And of course, residents (and non-residents alike) have the wonderful, year-round, farm-to-table experience of knowing EXACTLY where their produce comes from. For more information, visit their website here.

A heartfelt thank you to all of my friends and clients who made 2017 such a memorable year. This blog post contains some of my favorite commercial and lifestyle images from 2017. I couldn't pick just a few favorites, so there's a lot. Send me your medical bills for injuries related to excessive scrolling and Have a Happy New Year. 

I recently had the opportunity to collaborate once again with the crew from Red Barn Studio Live Sessions. The lineup during this year's Fayetteville Roots Festival featured a unique mix of music styles and personalities. The first video from the series was released today and features Iron and Wine. Give it a watch or a listen or preferably, both. Long live singer/songwriter rock and roll. 

After a crazy busy wedding and engagement season last summer, I was excited to be back at the Fayetteville Roots Festival this year. In collaboration with the wonderful guys from Red Barn Studio Live Sessions, I helped to create live session music videos for the likes of John Paul White, John Fulbright, Iron and Wine and Nick Offerman to name a few. Here's a few behind the scenes photos from the weekend. Enjoy. 

Today, I'm excited to share another feature from Red Barn Studio Live Sessions. We recently filmed a live performance by Trees & Houses. What is especially unique about this live session is that...

Many photographers (myself included) have jumped on the Sam Hurd bandwagon by waving glass prisms in front of their lenses while creating images. And why not? It's unique, unexpected and given the right light, can produce some beautiful results. But on a recent video shoot, I discovered that you could create a similar effect by using a Nalgene Water Bottle.

Here are the details. 

Today on the blog: The latest Red Barn Studio Live Session featuring The Sons of Otis Malone. Scroll down to see some behind the scenes photos along with the final video. Happy Thursday everyone!
