Been Magazine

Issue #1 is almost sold out. Issue #2 is now shipping!

Been Magazine is, in a word, inspiration. It is inspired by and celebrates art, photography, travel, individuality and creativity. If there is a common connection between story subjects it is inspiration. New York, city of endless inspiration, is the heart of the magazine. But all the other places covered (and there are many more planned) are in the magazine for the same reason: they inspire me to want to share their stories. Creative people + places. Artists + designers. Architects. Photographers. Makers. Doers. Wanderers. People who dream big dreams and small dreams. People who love where they are, what they are doing or where they are going.
