Weekly Inspiration: Blockbuster Air BnB
It's rare our commercial work or real estate photography gets to be as delightful and fun as Woodmans Blockbuster Video shoot. Photographs at the last Blockbuster Video on earth - now converted to an Airbnb, a reminder of simpler sweeter times.

Weekly Inspiration: Reuben Wu's Light Painting
We have seen a fair amount of light painting over the years, but band member of Ladytron, Music producer and photographer Ruben Wu takes the genre to the next level. Incorporating drones into his work, he is able to create large scale artificially lit landscapes that look more like he travelled to other planets rather than photographed them here on earth.
Weekly Inspiration: Ben Baker's Cone Dogs
