Took this shot of my wife… errr her glasses while hanging out at the lake last summer

Our Friend Kyle Hale Offered to take some shots of us a few weeks ago. We met Kyle about 2 and a half years ago when we asked him to take our engagement photo’s, we loved the photos and the experience we had with him so much we asked if he could do our wedding (May 2008 )  We had a blast getting these shots done.. He is such a down to earth, creative, all around nice dude! high five Kyle!

Check out his folio or his blog… or both

O yeah.. My wife is 4’11 that’s why I look like a giant….

It’s Almost been a full year of being on my own… I quit my old job last January to pursue freelancing. I can’t even count the amount of days I have stayed up till daylight broke.. all for the rush of meeting the deadline.. It’s 2:30 as I type now… and this is the third day in the row I have sat in front of my computer all day. I know my wife is soooo excited about that.

I’ve got a fever and the only cure is perfect kerning.

O no.. it’s turning into another one of those “designers new years resolution” posts.. I give you full authority to leave now.. I’m just thinking out loud… with my fingers..? All joking aside.. I love my “job” ( I gave it quotes because it does not feel like a job). In the Past I’ve done everything, from working as a stock boy at a Super Target, cashier at Chick-fil-a, shampooing and sweeping floors while trying to get my hair stylist license.. to calling “all skate” and rocking 80′s music as the DJ of a skating rink, and being a project manager of a furniture company. But freelancing is the only Job I have loved… I mean I can’t stop thinking about it, everything thing I see I’m thinking of a project I could use it on.. or I search around design blogs and magazines just because it excites me. I’ve got a fever and the only cure is perfect kerning.

I’m hoping the year 2010 brings great things. I feel I have grown a lot in the past year, met so many amazing people and been able to work on a lot of cool projects… And I still can’t believe I get paid doing it!

Our minds are always thinking of how to make things better.

Spent all day Tuesday hanging out with Stephen Hunton, Sarah Lynn Card, Gavin Tarquinio and my wife Eryn doing a photoshoot for her upcoming Demo CD. We started out early in the morning up in Dawsonville Ga. at Whisper Production’s Studio, an amazing 7,200 sq feet of space inside and 150 acres outside. We are really excited to see the shots Stephen got, the few sneak peeks we got to see blew us away!
