It’s been one heck of a busy season for us here at Novo Studio and for that, we are grateful. But we’re also tired and aside from a few random stories and update posts, largely neglected our blog and social media channels. In an effort to catch up and also to provide you all with some good reading/perusing material for the upcoming holiday, we’re going to be sharing some more content in the upcoming days.
Today, we’re sharing a recent photography project for local architecture firm, Buf Studio. They did an amazing job on Chef Matt Cooper’s newest restaurant, Conifer located in downtown Bentonville Arkansas. (click to read more)
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.

Read MoreI'm convinced that you cannot live in Northwest Arkansas and not hear about The Preacher's Son, a fairly new restaurant and bar concept from the brilliant minds of The Ropeswing Group. The atmosphere is beautifully dramatic, yet homey and subtle. And the food...well the food is downright delicious. (You may recall a recent blog post for Food and Farm Magazine recipe for a salad that I couldn't stop eating.) Executive Chef Matt Cooper and his well-trained and good natured kitchen staff use locally sourced ingredients and insane amounts of creativity to create dishes as delicious to eat as they are beautiful to look at. I recently had the opportunity to hang out in the kitchen and create some images for the restaurant and today, I'm sharing a few of my favorites. Enjoy.
