One of the perks of being a full-service marketing agency is that we have an absolutely fantastic in-house photographer on our team. At KEEN, we are so fortunate to have Nathan and his skills to help our clients with all their visual projects. Keep on reading to learn more about Nathan and the magic he works at KEEN! 

In our digital age, how a company brands itself is more important than ever. Companies seem to be recognizing this, and many are investing more into their marketing. But it’s expensive,  causing more companies to opt for using stock photos with their marketing collateral versus having custom photography taken.

Our Favourite Recipes with a Dash of Creativity There are a lot of things that we love, and food ranks high on the list. It helps fuel our creativity as we work passionately on unique projects for our clients. So naturally, we thought we would combine our creative passions along with the favourite foods we like to bring to potlucks and stuff our faces with. And the result was our very own

I LOVE to cook. I think it’s safe to say it’s the part of my day I look forward to the most (second would likely be grocery shopping). Getting creative in the kitchen is meditative, gets my mind off of things and it involves eating. Who doesn’t love to eat?

Creativity comes in all forms. We decided to let our creativity loose in the kitchen. Back in December, we took some time to work on a bit of a passion project of ours. It was something the entire KEEN team had a hand in creating, and we’re so proud of the result! Introducing, the KEEN Cookbook!

We’ve been busy bees here in the office. Here’s a little bit of an insider report of what has been keeping us all so busy this summer!

After the digital revolution finally hit its stride in the late 2000s there hasn’t been much technological advancement in the world of photography hardware. Since then the argument on whether or not these newfangled machines could match the “je ne sais quoi” of film has all but come to a halt except for the most stubborn of purists.

I guess we’re all just a little too distracting for him here at the KEEN office. For Christmas, we wanted to find a way to bring the whole gang to Matt’s new office so he would feel at home. This is where the awkward family photo comes in.

As a designer it is not only my job to create awesome, functional and effective work for my clients, but it is also my job to educate others on what I do. I frequently come across issues when it comes to file types with clients.
