That Time I Was Mentioned In A Forbes.Com Article, :)

Normally, when I write a blog, the last thing I want to do is point my audience in the direction of another blog — seems kinda weird to do that, right? Well, yes, BUT...that's exactly what I'm about to do with all you fine folks, :)

Recently, I had a studio portrait session with friend, mentor, and the baddest of badass branding magicians, Pia Silva.  

Now, this wasn't the first time that her and I worked together, so, I already knew that the shoot was going to be busting at the seems with great content captured in between the weirdness and irreverence that comes out of my mouth during a session.  So, rather than have all of these memories of a great shoot gone by living only in our minds, I asked my buddy, Mike of MAV Studios, LLC to swing by with his camera and capture the magic as it unfolded.  

When I mentioned this idea to Pia, she loved it and wanted to incorporate the video into one of her contributor articles for Forbes.com that discusses the importance of building a personal brand as a thought leader.  

Well, hell, works for me!
