Most of the keycap sets I’ve made have taken ages to actually exist, from the initial idea to final production. It feels amazing though — almost surreal. This thing you’ve only seen in 3D images for so long is finally in your hand. And the fact that it resonated with enough people to help make it makes me really happy. The room slowly followed the set. As it arrived I also added in the deskpad, then everything else was suddenly orange somehow.

The most recent additions are my Treecko figure and the Infinite70 keyboard. The Treecko adds a bit of personality to the setup, while the Infinite70 has been incredibly impressive with its futuristic design. It’s one of those pieces that I keep reaching for.

The Mac was definitely the biggest upgrade. The M4 Pro chip blazes through everything I throw at it. With the M1, photo and video editing started getting laggy, especially once I got the FX30 and the A7 IV — the files were larger and the M1 couldn’t keep up. The M4 Pro handles it with ease. The monitor was a big improvement too, at least for seeing the sharpness and texture in my images. Now I’m considering that Pro Display one day.

The oldest things on the desk are my hard drives and Orbitkey Nest. I use the Nest frequently to bring files to and from home when I need to edit weddings on the weekends. It keeps the hard drives protected when I’m putting them in my bag during the commute. So they’re quite vital to some of the work I do day to day.

My mornings start with making a latte before getting my family ready for school and work. Once I head into my office, I boot up the system, review my to-do list, and map out the best way to tackle the day’s projects.

Most days are a mix of editing photos and videos, shooting new content, testing products, and planning future ideas. After wrapping up work, it’s time for dinner with the family, hanging out together, maybe playing a few games, and finishing the day with our bedtime routine.

I start by writing down everything I need to accomplish, then challenge myself to approach each task differently than the last. If I’m reviewing a new keyboard, for example, I’ll ask myself how I can photograph or film it in a way that feels fresh compared to previous projects.

As I complete each task, I build momentum. That positive progress naturally pushes me into a flow state where ideas come more easily and creativity feels effortless.

Having complete control over my creative space. I’ve designed my office to be a place that inspires me, so every time I walk in, it’s easy to focus and get into work mode.

When the day is over, I can step away and fully disconnect to spend time with my family. Not having a commute, being able to dress comfortably, and tailoring every detail of my workspace to maximize focus makes working from home an incredible experience.

I’d love to add floating shelves integrated into the wood slat wall behind my desk. It would give me a place to display more decorative pieces, cameras, keyboards, and collectibles while adding another layer of depth and personality to the space.
