We are currently working with Archetype and Black Apple to create imagery that not only promotes their brand, but also their new cans of cider. Black Apple has been around for awhile now, offering (in my opinion), the best cider I’ve ever tasted. A couple weeks ago, I spent some time in their facility photographing the cider making and canning process. Their new cans are available now in Hibiscus and Blueberry flavors. Both are wonderful but please please please don’t just take my word for it. Cheers Friends!

Happy Friday everyone!

It’s been a crazy busy week for both Jared and I as we’ve been on-location and apart most of the week for work. But we met up at the bike shop yesterday to pick up a few things and I got my first look at the new Bike Arkansas Magazine issue. Coincidentally, I also came across this awesome video clip that Jared shot while we were in the woods the day of the shoot so I thought I’d share both here on the blog. The weather’s supposed to be nice this weekend, get out and enjoy it!

Open Streets - Fayetteville: The first in a series of events that offer communities the opportunity to experience their city streets in a whole new way.

Cheers!

Change is inevitable. Sometimes, it’s quick and abrupt. And other times, you start to feel the slow pull and growing tension of the current circumstances and you start wondering what to do about it. The latter has been my experience over the last couple of years…

Piggybacking off of last October’s post of recent headshots, today I’m sharing some more. As always, thanks to the wonderful clients that allow me to create their professional portraits while simultaneously talking about life and telling the only two jokes that I know. If anyone has any new jokes, please submit them here.

Cheers!

6 years ago when I first started this series, Carl Walter was the first person I featured and he will forever be the toughest act to follow. I would try to sum up my experience in talking with him if I could. But you just can’t summarize a 3 hour long conversation filled with humble beginnings and war stories and everything in between, so here’s a link to go back and read it for yourself.

Fast forward to today, where Aaron and Kim Walter have

Today on the blog, a few recent images for the March 2019 issue of Local Palate Magazine, a premier food culture publication focused on the South. This month’s issue featured an article on Scott Baker of Tusk and Trotter. Scott’s techniques for infusing liquors with natural flavors and the resulting cocktails are gaining attention outside our little are because they are absolutely delicious. Cheers to Monday!

Congratulations to the City of Fayetteville and the Fayetteville Public Library on their recent ground breaking ceremony for their library expansion. Over the course of the last year or so, we have worked together with Doxa and the Fayetteville Public Library to create content for this wonderful expansion project. And the ground breaking ceremony was the official kickoff to the beginning of the construction. For more information on the project, please visit the official Beyond Words site.

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…

Almost directly across the street from the studio is The Rusty Chair, an eclectic store filled with cool vintage finds, unique decor and…well…to be quite honest, stuff you never thought you’d see. Take for example the…

Food and beverage photography is quickly becoming one of my favorite jobs to work on. Part of this newfound love lies in the fact that I…

Here’s a quick behind the scenes photo from a recent photoshoot at Tusk and Trotter, for Visit Bentonville and The Local Palate, a culinary publication out of Charleston, South Carolina. I am confined to only behind the scenes photos until the publication releases in March. But after that, I’ll be sharing some tasty cocktail photos on here on the blog. In the meantime, enjoy!

One of the first commercial photoshoots of the year also promises to be one of the best and definitely, the funniest of 2019. Go Dog Go, a theatrical adaptation from the children’s book by P.D. Eastman, is playing to

This year, I participated in the Kessler Trail Run. And by participated, I mean that I ran 6 miles on the trail and then, photographed the after party while sipping beer and conversing with familiar and unfamiliar faces. You know. “Work”. Good times, indeed.

Today on the blog: A few recent portraits with Bentonville Highschool Senior, Devin Hearn.

No words I type here will be able to put into proper perspective, the amount of gratitude I have for my clients, my friends, my colleagues and for those of you who stumble onto my site in one way or another and appreciate my work. Here’s to hoping that you have ample time to eat too much, make memories with your families and most importantly, breathe.

Happy Thanksgiving.
