Leader of the new cool. Powerful and exuberant, a few words to describe the IMAN HASAN CREATIVE GROUP. In one fresh breath of creative direction coupled with digital know-how, the group was founded by the eponymous Iman Hasan herself, armed with cell phones, laptops, and a beautifully decorated office in
We often forget, now more than ever that we are creatures of habit. When our day to day ceased and halted this past March, all that was once normal gave way to the formation of new habits, often in familiar surroundings – our homes. But now as we eke into
We mostly think of sleep as the period between being awake and slipping into bed. That sounds so simple, well, it is and it isn’t. Without overcomplicating things, there are a few basics kinds of sleep, some are more effective than others. Everyone responds differently, and you only know when
How you feel can change in the blink of an eye or at the flick of a switch. Literally speaking, changing your mood with light can be best described as slipping into the calm of candlelight or buzzing at the feeling of sun rising on an early morning. Setting
Declutter more than your home, your office space, or even your kitchen. It can all start with your mind. While we should do what we can to breathe, stretch, and decompress, the mind is the engine that runs our very being. We carry so much on our proverbial shoulders (on
We know our community members, so we thought what better time then, for you to get to know them too. We sat with Bryan Dillard and asked a few questions, here’s what he had to say. &: What are the pillars of your company, and what inspires your ideas? BD:
Tech heaven & haven. Miami has long been known for, well… we all know what. Party after party, balmy air and endless beaches. But in the last few years, and specifically if you live here, you would notice a subtle shift in those arriving at MIA airport. They aren’t exclusively
A few frames. The breakout collaboration between musical worlds (POP x LATIN) isn’t new. What is new is the concept of big set ideas converging. What do we mean? Most music videos today by the early 2000’s are simple and pretty low bar in terms of production value. This is
Using cyclo. Why photographers chose cycloramas is just one of those unanswered questions we take for granted. The purpose of this multi-use space is to create an illusion for the eye where the vanishing point becomes infinite. In photography, achieving this allows for the visuals created to live almost anywhere,
Why we like moving pictures. Since the invention of the moving picture, we’ve been fascinated by watching ourselves on a screen. Fast forward almost 100 years later and we haven’t lost touch with that feeling. Animation is, in part, an extension of film and it creates content extensions that broaden
Brand iconography. Brands are living things. Their identity is as much alive as the thing it represents. Building your place in the sea of others who might “do what you do” makes it one of the fundamental first steps anyone should take. This is why we’re profiling one of the
It’s no surprise that in our time modes of transportation have shifted to be eco-conscious, and health-driven. Pardon the pun. Biking isn’t new by any means, but some innovation and smart thinking has lead to an advancement in the tech we use on and off of them. We’ve listed a
The ultimate “go bag” for photographers is a discussion we thought you might want to listen in on. We spoke with Cortez Groupe photographer Neil Watson to peak into his bag & get a visual diary of his quick & ready set up before heading out on a quick shoot.
With the continued discussion on what to put in your body, we keep an open ear to the medical and science community within our walls at AMPERSAND. From glutathione to basic boosters like strong chain vitamin regimens, we dove a bit into the world of the better you. Each day
Technology affords us the ability to work from anywhere, and it can often seem like there are endless possibilities and options. Everything you need from the right tools to amplify the hard work you’re already putting in are within reach. At Ampersand Studio, we ran a bit of a litmus test,
In the challenge of this year’s constant whirlwind of change, we’ve managed to squeeze out some innovation. In early July, our internal &GROW team led by @cortezgroupe was tasked with testing a few of those ideas out. Remote photoshoots were on the menu, and they didn’t disappoint. Typically a photoshoot
