Christopher Mansfield is the man behind the FENCES music. I have known Chris for quite some-time now. We originally met early in 2007 when his then roommates suggested we do some photos together.

Regardless of what happened in our friendship I always...

Charlie Schuck is never short on great ideas. Although I originally wanted him in this series because of his photography, I have since learned his genius goes beyond photos.

A curated pop up store of sorts, working with designers/friends...
