Highlight Reel: Akiko + De'von

Akiko + De'von  traveled a little over 2 hours for this incredible session and spent the day in the great city of Austin, TX. It was supposed to rain but luckily, the weather provided perfect weather conditions for this shoot. Oddly enough, I actually know both Akiko and Dev'on Akiko from Freshman year at Stephen F. Austin University. Akiko was my roommate and they had both met during our freshman year at SFA. I was elated when they had reached out via Instagram and asked if I could shoot their engagement photos. I've put together with a handful of photos for a 'highlight reel' to showcase some of my favorite photos from our session. 

I’m obsessed with every one of these, and hope you enjoy them too! ;)

EBONY's URBAN CREATIVES $10,000 PITCH

in ,

Last week Dillion from JamesMatthewDesign.com, pitched to me the idea of helping submit a video submission for EBONY'S for the Urban Creatives Contest of which the winner wins $10,000. It just so happened that Dillion was in the middle of moving out his condo, so we took on the opportunity to immediately start shooting. 

Since I am not well adept in video - Les Lockheart (new team member alert!), our video specialist, put this preview video together for social media as a preview: 

Here's the actual video submission to EBONY. Unfortunately, James Matthew Design did not win. However, this gave VYRL Co. Design the experience we needed to apply our  skills to future projects involving videography. 

Sidenote: We had to do ALOT of improvising (this video was made and completed within 6 hours.) but I'm still impressed with what we came up with in such a short time period. 

Here's the ACTUAL Pitch...
