An illustration for LifeWay to use in a Christmas campaign. Made out of wire and cut paper—then photographed.

We needed to put a quick video together for the Victore, or Who Died and Made you Boss? book launch—we came up with the idea over lunch, and by that afternoon, we had 25 baby chicks ordered via an online hatchery. It’s a simple idea and our animal actors preformed flawlessly. P.S. the chicks were donated to a local farm.

I have been working with James Victore since October of last year and over the last nine months we have had some great projects come through the studio—this one is my favorite so far. For Print’s Rants and Raves issue, the magazine selected James, because he is the “angry” designer,  to create the cover art. We went back and forth with a bunch of ideas until finally settling on actually making this club and having Tom Schierlitz shoot it.

Pretty freakin’ cool I think.

It feels good to be away from the craziness of NYC. Here are a few snippets from the drive down.

It was a great time and an amazingly beautiful Jewish wedding. Here are a few of my shots:

My sweet grandma, Grady Lee Woodard, passed away last week. I am so glad that I took these photos when I had the chance. She was so frail and thin but her spirit was so humble and good natured. Granny, you will be missed. Grady Woodard
