A visit to a friend's new ranch and a chance encounter with a wildlife photographer resulted in a watershed moment for B.J. Eick. He had been a photographer himself for years at this point, but as he viewed this individuals work, B.J. realized not just the opportunity to create amazing work, but also the model of execution for building a business around it. As B.J. pulled out of the ranch from his visit he called Marlene immediately. Herdmark Media had been born, and a new path ahead, with the goal of creating exceptional photography and video productions for agricultural brands.
