365 Project : Completed →
Over the course of the last year, I took a picture every single day. It was a great way to learn all of the features of my camera, to try to look at things in a new light, and to keep a visual journal of all of the things that happened.
There were a lot of days when I didn’t want to take a photo, or I hated the photo I’d taken, or when I remembered just a couple of minutes before...

Andy Hixon →
I recently ran into Andy Hixon’s Woven music video on Behance.

Corey O'Connor Photography →
Coming up on our one year anniversary, Steph and I still love going through our wedding pictures.
Thanks again to Corey O’Connor, who did an incredible job as our photographer! Corey is one of the few photographers that we found who was willing to give us all of the high-res pictures and use them as we wanted, instead of forcing us to buy prints. We couldn’t recommend him enough.

80's Music is Terrible

I’d love one of these! Too bad there aren’t any projects in Boston. The home customization features are neat, and the website has a great sense of humor.
