Pay it Forward
I’ve decided to use this
newsletter to also extend open
arms to many collaborating
people, organizations, and
companies that I have been
involved with and know of.
In the months to come, each
release, I will have a featured
person, organization, or business
that I would like to help promote.
It’s just part of giving back. I feel
like as humans, we all have an
obligation to help others and to
give back to society in a positive
way. Networking is one of those
ways that I feel is a huge part of
that. To network means that you
help people do what they too
love doing or have worked hard
to do. With the internet these
days, it helps networking to be
possible. I ask you all to check out
those that I will recommend.

WHY?
Find something that you love doing. Make a brand. It’s that simple.
Or is it? For many years, I have been involved with music, been a
photographer, a writer, created artwork, and been a therapist. I’d say
that being creative is probably the biggest thing that I enjoy. I’ve
always wanted to help people, so combine all of those together and I
guess you could say that would be the ideal “job” for me. But it takes
much more than that; it takes time, it takes dedication and it takes
knowing your craft. If you give up on something, it probably wasn’t
meant to be in the first place? Right? Well, if you come back to it
later but you’re better than before, then it means you just needed
time to pass to show you the true meaning. Sometimes you just need
time to improve the brand you seek/the person that you are.
Throughout my life, the persona of “Dave Mac” has evolved but
improved. I’ve searched for who he really is; I’ve searched for who I
really am. All along, it’s all been there building up, but it has taken
time to understand. I’ve always wanted to make a positive impact;
Dave Mac Creations is just that. That is who I am. I hope that you find
it in you that you enjoy who I am and seek for the person you are
becoming.
There’s no question that first and foremost, I have
to introduce you all to Enchanted Moments by Mac
Photography. Melane and I go way back. I’ve met a
lot of photographers, but honestly, she is the best I
have met. While teaching me so much, she has
established a reputable company in Greensboro, NC.
Weddings and portraits are her specialty.

Inspiration
I’m no scholar or anything, but I like to think that I have helped many people through
times in their life. I’ve learned that using my words is one of the best ways that I can
influence other people. This column might just be a quote or could even be a short story
of an experience which I have had. It might be something that I just have to share and tell
involving ways to stay encouraged. I feel there is no better way to change the world than
to take action. Inspiration helps people to act.
Dave Mac Music
Well, what can I say? I have been writing, producing, and recording for literally well over a
decade now. I may not be the best and I doubt I’ll be incredibly famous, but music just
does something to me that I cannot fully explain. It takes me away from reality but lets
me express myself realistically. Someday, I’ll release an album, even though I keep talking
about it. I will use this newsletter to host any updates, but for now, you can find some of
my most recent music at http://www.reverbnation.com/musicofdavemac
Image of the Release
I take a lot of photographs and pictures
as a professional photographer and just
candid every day snap shots. I Love
capturing the moment and being able to
look back on it. Images can mean so
many things. There are so many
wonderful aspects, angles, and meanings
an image can be interpreted as. I’ll use a
section of this newsletter to host a
significant image which I have taken. This
release, just as a quick sample until next
time, I’d like to share a beautiful image
seen on my daily routine. In the future,
more detail/description will be given to
the Image of the Release.
