What You’ll Wish You Could Hear Again

There are certain moments in life that you only get one chance to capture. This weekend, Merriann and I had the absolute pleasure of attending the wedding of some dear friends. It was beautiful — the kind of day where you could feel the joy in the room before the ceremony even started. Laughter in the hallways, hugs that lingered a little longer than normal, proud parents trying to keep their composure....

If you want 2026 to be the best year of your life, please read this blog…

This year, my planner isn’t a book. It isn’t an app. It isn’t something I check once a week and forget about. It’s one single sheet with the entire year printed on it and laid out where I can see all of it at once. No flipping pages.No hiding months.No pretending December is far away. Just the truth of time, staring back at you....

This album was written and created during a season when I had to lean on God more than ever.

After the passing of my father and the family grief that followed, I found myself searching for something steady—something honest. These songs came from that place. They’re about loss, faith, surrender, and the quiet reminder that even when life feels broken and unanswered, Jesus is still worthy.

This project was inspired by the truths found in worship and hymns that have carried believers through generations, reimagined through a modern lens for the season I was walking through.

For transparency: I used an AI music creation tool (Suno) to help shape the sound, but the words, themes, and heart behind this album are deeply personal.

If you’re in a hard season, my prayer is that this music meets you there. 🤍

A Christmas That Starts a Little Early

Christmas at our house doesn’t happen exactly the way the calendar says it should. It never really has. For us, Christmas usually starts a little early. Sometimes on Christmas Eve. Sometimes even before that. Not because we’re rushing the season, but because our family has learned that love often means adjusting the schedule. Ell’s birthday is on Christmas Day, and from the beginning we’ve tried to protect that....

One of the things that I’ve enjoyed over the years is catching up with couples that we had filmed their wedding day. There’s nothing like seeing a family grow and thinking to yourself you where there at the beginning. I just love it.

A Covid-19 Managed Wedding... Words that a year ago would not even be thought of, little less planned for. But that is what Shari and Alex did. With love ones masked and socially distanced these two had a wedding that would be never forgotten. I am so happy that we could help film this truly once in a lifetime event. Congrats you two.
