Joshua Talbot

In the last few months I’ve had a growing amount freelance work come my way. So much so that I’ve needed to put energy into Prioritizing, Scheduling & reevaluating my own processes. I’ve been extremely thankful for the work. And the opportunity to fine tune things has brought a deeper appreciation for the clients & peers I work with. As well as a confirmation that I’ve been blessed with the opportunity to do what I love!

This work has turned into something more providential than I could have ever imagined.

So it’s with much excitement that I announce 1. I was laid off from O’Reilly Media yesterday. And 2. Effectively immediately, I’m putting full energy and attention into Joshua Talbot Design.

The work I’ve done as a web designer with O’Reilly has been invaluable. And the relationships built will no doubt continue for a life time. But in the current state of the economy the company had to make some drastic cuts. And a large number of people were let go. They also could use your prayers & thoughts.

As a friend, peer or client the relationships I’ve built over the extent of my career have been invaluable. I’m looking forward to what the future holds and have no doubt most of you will play a part in that.

This is a very new & exciting adventure for Nadia, Ewan & I. And I’d appreciate your prayers. Please feel free to contact me with any advice, suggestions, questions or potential work.

Looking forward to the future!

Over the last two years I’ve been archiving bits of video. Mostly of the boy but a few random odds & ends. If I can offer one piece of advise it would be to take as many pictures (and videos) as you can. Our visual journal has been a major source of inspiration. There are so many small moments in life that are overpowering. Moments that define you simply by partaking in them. And typically (for me) it’s not until I look back on these that I realize how amazing they are. So dust off that camera and get outside!
