Can you always create a viral video? No. But you can set yourself up for success by recognizing opportunities and acting fast. Timing is everything. This past weekend was the annual Goldens in Golden festival, where thousands of Golden Retrievers (and their humans) gather in Golden, Colorado. We attended in 2024 and saw massive success with our content. So in 2025, we went in with a plan—one that paid off in a big way. The results speak for themselves: ?? Total Views: 15,069,577 ?? Total Likes: 1,870,820 ?? Total Shares: 555,532 ?? Total Saves: 77,983 ?? Total Comments: 11,391 Our content didn’t just take off—it went viral, reaching audiences around the world. It even landed on Martha Stewart, The TODAY Show, Fox, and many other news sites. And it didn’t happen in a quiet week—this weekend was one of the busiest on social media with the Super Bowl dominating the conversation. Yet, amidst all the buzz, our content still broke through in a big way. Heck, we even garnered more views than some Super Bowl commercials, and we did it all with absolutely no budget. This is what happens when preparation meets the right moment. Viral success isn’t just luck; it’s understanding what resonates, showing up, and executing quickly. This is exactly what Kathryn and I do at Katie And Joe On The Go and Global Adventure Media—we study social media trends, capture the right moments, and execute faster than I’ve seen in my 10+ years in advertising. If you’re looking for a production team that can run + gun with the best of them, we’d love to chat. [email protected] Did you catch any of our Goldens in Golden coverage? ???

This Thanksgiving, we had the chance to create something truly special for #RamTrucks at the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. By jumping on a trending #TikTok format during the parade, we captured a moment that turned into the highest-performing post on their account EVER. As of right now the video is at 250k views, 15,000 Likes, and 400 shares. What made it work? Real-time creativity, staying agile, and aligning with trends in a way that felt authentic to the brand and the event. Ram Professional Stellantis

#NewWork - This past week, we were back in NYC capturing the magic of the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade for Ram Trucks—our third year partnering on this iconic event! It was a wet one, with a full-on rainstorm, but that didn’t stop us. From setup on “Inflation Day” to the last float passing Macy’s flagship store, we planned, captured, and delivered everything Ram’s Marketing and Press Teams needed—turning it all around within hours. Real-time content creation is something we take a lot of pride in. Knowing that millions of Ram fans could experience the parade’s magic through the assets we created made all the late nights and early mornings worth it. This year, we delivered: ?? A classic recap video highlighting the setup and parade-day moments: https://lnkd.in/gj4u_kM4 ?? A TikTok video hopping on a trending format that has become the top video of the year in a matter of days: https://lnkd.in/gjRrhWVk ?? 25+ photos ready for social media and press use: https://lnkd.in/gVZtmXU3 A huge thank you to the teams at Ram Trucks and Razorfish for trusting us with such an important event. It’s always an honor to help bring this experience to life. And while the confetti has barely settled, we’re already looking forward to next year!

A few weeks ago at Overland Expo, a tap on the shoulder turned into one of the most unexpected and rewarding experiences of the year. Kathryn and I were wrapping up a project when someone approached me, asking if I was an automotive photographer—and if so, whether I had time to photograph his truck. I said, “Sure” only to hear he only had an extremely small window of an hour before he had drop off the truck in Wyoming and he had to head to the airport to make it back to Europe. That’s when he dropped the bombshell: the truck was the brand new BEDROCK XT2, a six-wheeled F550 created by KRUG EXPEDITION in collaboration with ARCTIC TRUCKS?. This was a $690,000 vehicle, built to handle some of the harshest conditions on the planet. This experience was a great reminder that you never know where a new opportunity might present itself. Sometimes, being open and ready for the unexpected is all it takes to find yourself shooting a $690,000 six-wheeler for a global expedition brand. Thanks for the opportunity Dmitriy Yermolov!

FASTEST WOMAN ON THE MOUNTAIN!! We wanted to congratulate our friend Laura Hayes on not only beating the record for being the fastest woman at the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb of all time, but demolishing it. She and her Toyota North America Supra GT4 (prepped by Thunder Bunny Racing) was able to lay down a 10:20.487. Which is 30+ seconds faster than the previous record of 10:54 set in 2018. We've worked with Laura Hayes over the past few years capturing her ascents up Pikes Peak and can't be more excited for her fantastic achievement.

After being on Pikes Peak all week long, it's apparent that the Ford Motor Company F-150 Lightning SUPERTRUCK EV is truly in a class of it's own. If we get clear skies at the 102nd running of the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb, Romain Dumas (driver) will break his own record of 7:57.148.

When we first got on the mountain this morning we weren’t sure if the session would even run. The fog was thick and the roads were slick with icy rain. We were in limbo for 2-hours until the skies cleared just enough to get a clean run. With today’s practice in the books, the only thing left is the race! See you all Sunday for the 102nd Pikes Peak International Hill Climb.
