Novo Studio Video Short | Northwest Arkansas Photography

For years, I've had the idea in my head to make a video for Novo Studio. The idea for the video was inspired by a voicemail message I created years ago that, in my mind, accurately describes why I would not be answering my phone. And to have a video that started from the voicemail message and then, journeyed into my life as a photographer and as a person seemed to make sense. Plus, I could put some music to it and avoid the awkward challenge of talking about myself and my business. 

But of course, life happened and with an incredibly busy season and twins, my idea remained an idea until I decided to take a creative sabbatical. When writing out my sabbatical bucket list, the creation of this video went right to the top and with the help of my dear friends and creative colleagues and my wife, I am happy to (FINALLY) share this video with you. Many thanks to Bryan Fittin, Jason Miller, Murray Williams and Kristen Thomas for making this whole thing possible. Enjoy.

Throwback Thursday / A College Project

Many probably don't know the true significance of this book. But after a college graphic design professor and advisor told me that I'd never make it as a graphic designer because of my lack of illustration ability, this graphic design project (which I received an A on) was my first foray into photography. Pursuing photography in my mind, would make up for my not being able to draw and thus ensure some sort of success in my chosen field of study. Though worn from travels and shuffles, this book still sits at my desk, reminding me of where I came from and that no one can tell me I'm a failure.
