Our collaborations with Red Barn Studio, Murdog Creative and 6th & Burnside continue. This week, we had the privilege of hanging out with local indy band, Brother Moses. This was our first full band live session so all had to wear earplugs. Here's some behind-the-scenes images as well as the final video. As always, thanks to Jason Miller for hosting and to Murray Williams for coordinating, directing and producing. Enjoy!
Read MoreIt was a great honor to begin the 2015 wedding season by celebrating with and photographing two very good friends as they began their new life together. Aaron and Brook are two of the kindest people you'll ever meet. Their love for each other and the people around them is obvious and inspiring. Their beautiful Spring wedding took place at an amazing new wedding venue in the area called Rockford Grange. What this venue lacks in cell phone reception, it more than makes up for in thoughtful details, beautiful scenery and friendly staff. Besides, it's my personal opinion that people should shut their phones off and just enjoy the celebration anyway :) Here's a few images from the day. Congratulations you two!
Read MoreI was inspired to make this post after reading a recent issue of Kinfolk Magazine. For those of you who are photography or design (or both) nerds, you've probably already heard of this magazine and if not, you should do yourself a favor and check it out. Kinfolk as a publication is focuses on creating content that encourages its readers to embrace a simplified and slow-paced lifestyle. Their latest issue is titled "The Entrepreneurs Issue" and the following quotes are taken from a recent Saturday morning that I spent reading it. The images that follow the quotes are both my interpretation of the quotes from the article and also, ways in which I myself am attempting to practice a more simplified and slow-paced lifestyle. I hope that these quotes inspire you as they have me. Enjoy.
Read MoreI once again had the opportunity to collaborate with local talent to create a music video for local artist and celebrity, Benjamin Del Shreve. Benjamin (who usually plays with a full band), brought technology (aka a BOSS RC-300 loop station for all you gear nerds out there), choosing to loop several instruments and vocal patterns on top of each other and then, sing along. The result was incredible and we're excited to share it with you. Once again, thanks to Jason Miller at Red Barn Studio for recording, Murray Williams of Murdog Creative for organizing, directing and producing, the video, to Bryan Fittin of 6th & Burnside for being an all-around great personality to spend the evening with and to Benjamin Del Shreve, for rocking our lenses and our faces off. Here's a few behind the scenes images along with the video. Enjoy!
** Note ** Red Barn Studio Live Sessions is a collaborative effort to promote new and existing local music talent. It is also an opportunity for creatives to have a "jam session" of their own and to contribute to a fun project. If you're a musician or group and you are completely awesome at what you do, let us know.
