The Obsidian Lens

04/05/2026

I didn't start this business to take pictures.

I started it because I was tired of forgettable ones.

Photography in Northwest Arkansas has a lot of genuine talent in it. But a lot of it looks the same. Bright, clean, safe, easy to scroll past without blinking.

I wanted to build something that stopped the scroll without tricks. Without filters. With a frame that actually means something.

The Obsidian Lens is built on one idea: shadows tell the truth that light is too busy flattering to say. The most powerful images I've ever seen live right on the edge of both.

Whether I'm shooting a musician who needs their visuals to feel like the music, a local business that deserves a brand video worth watching, or a person who wants one photograph that actually looks like them, I approach all of it the same way. With patience. With intention. And with a hard bias against anything forgettable.

This is The Obsidian Lens. This is NWA. And we're just getting started.

If that sounds like what your brand, your art, or your story deserves, you know where to find me.

Who misses October? I know we do.

We're doing a limited number of best friend murder shoots!

We've got a location, tons of fake blood, a tarp, and we can get shovels. Must provide your own dead body, though (for some reason we're out right now 🙄)

If you want in, just comment "MURDER" and we'll send you more info!

*NOT my photos. Mine will look even more badass and cinematic 😎
