We Are Not Pilgrims
So stoked to see my homies, WE ARE NOT PILGRIMS, come out with their new site designed & branded by Sophia Chang. I got the chance to work with these New York creatives at the NWM in San Francisco last year. WANP is a production company and creative agency whose goal is to develop, craft, and author original concepts. Love it fellas!

Jeff Holt: Making Moves
It’s awesome to have creative friends in the same craft. It’s cool because you can share goals, push and motivate each other, and just talk shop. I think the people you surround yourself with are crucial to who are you and who you’re trying to become. I love people with passion, an open mind, and who just come from the same kind of thinking as me. I’m sure a lot of you have heard about Jeff Holt. He’s about to make some moves in 2011, and I just wanted to put it out there now! We’re all trying to hustle even harder this year, and I can appreciate peeps that support each other’s artforms. Wattup Jeff! Do it boy!
Back to School with Nick Onken: ASMP Talk in Portland
A huge influencer in my life, Nick Onken, will be speaking in Oregon for the ASMP on January 11. If you have the time, I know it will be an amazing learning experience. The theme of his talk will be about Taking Better Pictures, and Showing More People.
Kill it Nick!
Weddings + Hairography: Nine Zero One Salon
I teamed up with Nine Zero One Salon in West Hollywood to create some amazing imagery for their Wedding Lookbook. It was an unforgettable shoot, and everyone from the stylists, dresses, and models were a vision. So stoked at the opportunity to work with all of you! These images were shot at the salon! If you are getting married, not only will you have amazing service from all the hair artists, but you’ll have a timeless venue to shoot your prep at. Does it get any better than that? Please stay tuned for more pictures and shoutouts! Nine Zero One rocks!
Yes Yes Yall..and you don’t stop!
My designer along with a bunch of his fellow artists created the site YYY. It’s a site that promotes, push, and supports individuals who love music. The site is full of inspirational content. I recommend everyone to check out the site from the blog to the radio platform (which I love!). The design and layout of the site alone is so insane. You can see all the little things that was put into each page. It’s pretty amazing how far they pushed the limits for the user experience, and I can definitely appreciate amazing work when I see it. For all music lovers, it’s another creative outlet to promote, share, and find new tracks to jam to.
