I recently had the privilege of creating some images for the newest issue of Block, Street & Building, a magazine showcasing the progress of New Urbanism in Arkansas. In case you haven't noticed, there's a lot of stuff going on around here. :) Click here to read the full issue and enjoy the images. 

I was honored and excited to be a part of the third issue of Bike Arkansas Magazine, featuring some of the area's hippest and youngest riders. Here's a few of my favorite images from the issue. Enjoy. 

There's a new Farmers Market in town...downtown, that is. A new and improved Rogers Farmers Market is now open in on Saturday mornings in Downtown Rogers. The market, which opened last weekend is held in a newly renovated indoor/outdoor space complete with a full kitchen, public restrooms, food trucks and green space. Here's a few images from the opening day. Enjoy!

I have officially been contracted by the Rogers Lowell Chamber of Commerce and Visit Rogers to create an updated library of imagery for the city of Rogers. This project will be a year-long endeavor and will consist of imagery from local events, amenities, architecture, businesses, restaurants and lifestyle.

The first event on my calendar was the...

My absolute favorite part of living in Arkansas is the natural beauty everywhere and the variety of outdoor activities that the environment facilitates. I'll take any opportunity I can to work with clients that are supporting these outdoor activities;

A few weeks back, I had the opportunity to spend some time photographing life in the office at my favorite local design agency, DOXA. My history with DOXA began in college with a graphic design internship and it has continued over the years with commercial photography. I'm very thankful, not only for the creative inspiration that I've gleaned from working with the people at DOXA, but also for the friendships that I've formed with them. They are truly a good group of people to work with.  

I recently had the opportunity to hang out with the awesome staff at Harrington Miller Law Firm in Springdale, Arkansas. A few years back, I created some images for their new brand and website. Since then, they've moved to a larger location and as a result, their website imagery needed some updating. And while their business thrives on the experience and professionalism that you'd expect from a top rated law firm, I should also mention that these people are some of the nicest, most approachable and sincere people I've had the pleasure of working with. 

Say hello to a few of the talented mountain bikers and trail builders in our area, all riding at The Railyard Bike Park in Downtown Rogers and all wearing the super-awesome clothing creations from Fayettechill Clothing Company. I had the opportunity to hang out with this fun crew a few weeks back and today, I'm excited to share a few of my favorite images from the shoot. Enjoy. 

Attention Rock Climbers: Don't throw your old climbing ropes away! Instead, hand them over to the guys at Buddha Rugs and they'll turn your old, tired and probably unsafe to climb on any longer rope into a beautiful and functional rug. I had the privilege of hanging out with Jason and Brian, the guys behind Buddha rugs a few weekends back for Arkansas Wild Magazine. It was an eye opening experience, both from the education I received about the sport of rock climbing and from seeing the engineering and craftsmanship with which these two design and construct their rugs. What started as a small hobby and a way to give new life to retired climbing rope has turned into a small business that seems to be growing. Here are a few images from my time with Jason and Brian. Be sure to check out their full story in the upcoming issue of Arkansas Wild Magazine. Cheers. 

I'm not going to lie, it's really awesome when you're hired to go hiking and shoot pictures of the experience. Such was the case this week when I traveled to Fairfield Bay Arkansas to capture the experience of hiking Sugar Loaf Mountain. Here are a few of my favorite images from the hike. Enjoy. 

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. 

Over the years, my work has taken me to a variety of locations around the country and around the world. But in all honesty, Arkansas still has some of the most beautiful scenery I've ever laid my eyes or my camera lenses on. I recently, I had the opportunity to travel to a scenic part of the state on the White River to photograph a guided fishing / lunch adventure courtesy of Gaston's White River Resort and Arkansas Wild Magazine. Here are a few of my favorite images from the trip. Enjoy. 

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.

Last year, I had the unique opportunity to sit in on a video shoot for Clairol Color and create some behind-the-scenes images of the video-making process. And this year, I got to do it again. Here's a few images from my time on-set. Special thanks to Verge Videos for putting up with me again. Enjoy. 

The ongoing endeavor to create functional and beautiful amenities in downtown Rogers reached a major milestone last Saturday with the grand opening of

In my many years of running a business, I've made mistakes. And perhaps one of the greatest mistakes I've made was in thinking a Keurig Coffee machine could handle the mundane task of making coffee for myself and my clients and customers longterm...

If you like to ride bicycles, cook food, drink beer and buy locally crafted things...

If you've raced mountain bikes at all, you've probably heard of the Drummond Family. And if you've seen their names in the race results, chances are they were towards the top if not on it. That's because for this family, mountain biking is their sport. And when I say "sport", I mean that in the truest sense of the word. Everything from schedules, to nutrition, to daily exercise routine revolves around their chosen sport of mountain biking. What started out as a family activity quickly turned into a hobby and then, a passion. I was fortunate enough to spend a recent Saturday with them creating images for the upcoming issue of Bike Arkansas Magazine. Here's a few of my favorites. Enjoy. 

It's always a pleasure to spend time at the Fayetteville Public Library. The architecture and the environment is always inspiring and the workers and patrons alike are always super friendly. Here's a few photos from a recent shoot. Enjoy. 

I'm honored to be working with Murray Williams of Murdog Creative on a rebranding project for EcoVet Furniture Company. And today, I'm excited to share their new logo along with a few images that we created for their new site and marketing materials. EcoVet is local company that creates beautiful, handmade custom wood furniture. Unique to EcoVet's business structure is that they focus on hiring Veterans and teaching them the skills to build their beautiful products. EcoVet also focuses on being environmentally conscious with their business and they see to it that the majority of their building materials are reclaimed from decommissioned Walmart trailers. For more information on EcoVet Furniture Company, you can visit their website (currently under construction) or their Facebook Page.
