Happy 2017, I'm on Sabbatical

After incredibly busy Spring, Summer and Fall seasons of work and life, I am starting 2017 by taking a self-imposed "Creative Sabbatical." This simply means that for the first 2 months of the year, I will be accepting work on a limited basis with the intention of using the rest of my time to decompress, recharge, learn some things and rework some aspects of Novo Studio. I will also be taking more time to focus on creating personal photographs. (Translation... more driving, exploring and trespassing). I will be posting a few updates here on the blog and on social media. As for my personal work, you can feel free to follow along on my website, on my Flickr page and on my Instagram page. Cheers to a New Year, see you soon.

As of Late | We've been outside.

It’s been a whirlwind past couple of weeks. We’ve been shooting much more than we’ve been editing or blogging. And that’s a good thing. C’mon. Who wouldn’t rather be outside during this beautiful time of year? There will be lots of catching up on the blog in the next few weeks. In the meantime, we’ll see you outside.

Breathe: A College Lecture

Today, I'm posting a few excerpts from a talk I gave to some university graphic design / photography students last week. To be quite honest, I'm posting these as much for myself as I am for any readers that happen to stumble upon the blog. Here's to hoping these thoughts inspire you in school, in work and in life. Cheers.
