Marketing can be complicated, so let’s simplify it.

When you prioritize your story, building relationships, and being yourself marketing becomes an extension of who you are and how you naturally connect with your customers.

Today is our 14 year wedding anniversary.

Four years ago today we were hanging out in Lake Tahoe dreaming about what Altar Media could be when we got an email from our first official client that they wanted to move forward with a project. It was the moment our business went from being a possibility to being real (and the moment we realized we needed to officially file our LLC and get business insurance 😅).

Fast forward 4 years and we’ve now worked on hundreds of projects with clients in multiple states and industries.

One thing ties them all together: community. The idea that when we work together not only do we and our businesses benefit, but also our communities.

We’re so glad we dreamed together 4 years ago because now we’re living in our dreams.

Thanks to every client, chamber, employee, friend, neighbor, coach and fellow business owner that has championed us these last 4ish years. We wouldn’t be here without you. 🤟🏻

It’s this LEGEND’s birthday today! 🤘🏻

The lights + camera + action wouldn’t happen without his skills, expertise, and creativity.

We’re so glad he’s a member of our team and so excited to celebrate him today.

Happy birthday Nate!

The month of birthdays continues!

Today we celebrate Emma. When we’re in a pickle, she relishes in helping us laugh through the hard moments and finding the bright spots to help us be at our best!

I guess you could say she’s a pretty big dill. 🥒

Join us in wishing Emma a happy birthday today!
