“OFTEN IMITATED, BUT NEVER DUPLICATED”

Our name began with a twist on this cliché. Rather than a statement on a unique product, we used this as a reminder of the millions of tiny details that make any creative endeavor a unique project. We can never duplicate what’s already been done. Each new story is a privilege.

Stephen Broome is the often goofy, never decaffeinated Creative Director and Founder of Often & Co. Stephen loves working with collaborators to achieve cinematic, story-driven videos. Previously, he was the lead Content Coordinator for Duke Men’s Basketball.

Jessie Broome is the energetic, part-time Producer for Often & Co. She brings clarity and joy to every project.
