In the fall of 2015, Griffin introduced two brand-new cases to the Survivor family, their rugged case collection for mobile devices.

This launch was a collaborative effort with the internal creative team and local/international partners to create all of the final pieces.

I was responsible for aligning all of the internal/external teams; managing the creative production of advertising, renderings, video and content; and, ensuring that our international Sales teams, distributors and retailers were equipped with the launch materials.

Role: Producer.

In 2015, Griffin pulled out all the stops for their Consumer Electronics Show booth in Las Vegas.

We collaborated with Steven Lippman and some ridiculously good talent in Los Angeles for the photographs; TONIC created 20-foot high life-like product renderings; and, BJ Batterman helped us organize a fashion-inspired runway show that ran three times a day.

In addition to communicating and working with the above teams, I also collaborated with the internal creative team on the 20-foot high video wall, product displays, interactive touch screens and organizing launch assets for our PR/Sales teams.

And... if you plan on visiting Las Vegas and love sushi, be sure to go to Yama Sushi. You can thank me later.

Role: Producer, Strategy, Sushi Eater.

Along with creating the product and lifestyle photos for MultiDock, I had the opportunity to travel to Dallas, Texas to visit with our friends at Bottle Rocket.

Bottle Rocket uses the MultiDock cart to charge, secure and manage their mobile devices. I met and photographed members of their team using MultiDock around the office, including founder Calvin Carter.

Role: Photographer, Producer.

Twenty was a fun project to launch.

The product was great, the design was interesting, and we assembled a stellar team to create the launch assets requested, which included a product introduction video and product/lifestyle photos.

Role: Photographer, Producer, Website Strategy.

The launch of Identity Custom for iPhone 6 gave the creative team the opportunity to reimagine the user experience to be more fun, simple and engaging.

I was able to contribute early in the process, utilizing insights from the previous custom experience to optimize the interaction.

Role: Producer, User Experience, Strategy.

In addition to creating the product photos, I asked a few people on the team to dance to their favorite music while wearing the headphones.

The photos were a hit and gave the product launch assets some energy previously not utilized by the brand.

Role: Photographer, Producer, Strategy.

To answer the Apple Watch customers' demand for a simple charging solution, Griffin created the WatchStand and WatchStand Charging Station.

Due to time constraints, the creative team was forced to think about how to quickly and effectively visually communicate the benefits the user would experience.

In addition to standard launch assets, we also created a low-key unboxing and setup video for customers to maximize the quality of their product experience.

Role: Producer, Strategy.

For Ghettoblaster Magazine.

I had the incredible honor of creating some portraits of Natalie at her friends' house in Nashville.

With two cameras, two rolls of film and a pack of instant film, we created some beautiful images that her record label ended up using for the 'Bird of Prey' single.

During a short break from the recording studio, Winston, Abe and I made some photographs while talking about their latest album ‘Ivywild,’ the experience of touring Europe for the first time, and love of J-Dilla and Bobby Womack.

Just weeks before the release of his now critically-acclaimed album 'Metamodern Sounds in Country Music', The FADER assigned me to photograph Sturgill Simpson for Issue #91.

I distinctly remember Sturgill saying that while he loved the new album, it would probably be his last because it was so odd and unconventional.

I'm proud to partner with the Nashville Rescue Mission to communicate the impact they are having in the community and inspire more people to get involved.

This moment was captured at their annual Thanksgiving meal in 2015.

This multi-person collaboration was organized by Len Burton, stylist extraordinaire. 

I love a simple, black-and-white portrait.

This was a fun collaboration with the team now involved with Local Honey in Nashville.

It was an early morning, but we had to arrive at the pink exterior of the beauty shop before they opened. I think it was worth it.

Oh, and go have a listen.

For a collaboration with Third Man Records, United Record Pressing, and Griffin Technology, I had the opportunity to tour and document the process of making vinyl records and the people behind the magic.
