Behind the Scenes of Fate: Colorado, Family, and the Making of a Story

Like an album, every music video has its own heartbeat, but Fate carries something deeper—an intersection of place, family, and story that made the shoot unforgettable.

🎬 Shooting Across Colorado

The landscapes of southern Colorado became the canvas for Fate. From the rugged edges of Cañon City, to the quiet stretches of Penrose, to the urban textures of Pueblo, each location added its own character. These weren’t just backdrops—they were living, breathing parts of the narrative. The shifting skies, the raw terrain, and the mix of historic and modern settings gave the video a cinematic weight that couldn’t be faked.

✝️ A Family Role: The Priest

One of the most powerful elements of the video is the priest character, portrayed by Reagan, Rich’s son. His presence brought an authenticity that went beyond performance. Watching him step into the role on set was a reminder that Fate isn’t just about storytelling—it’s about legacy, connection, and passing something meaningful forward.

📸 Capturing the Process

The behind-the-scenes photo (included below) shows more than just the mechanics of filming. It captures the energy of collaboration—the crew setting up shots, the cast preparing, and the quiet moments between takes where the story was still alive in everyone’s minds.

🌍 Why It Matters

The album Fate was born from some of the most tragic moments of my life—chapters that tested me in ways I never expected. But every one of those trials was conquered. The goal of Fate was never just to make great music; it was to create something that could inspire. The message is simple but powerful: no matter how overwhelming the odds may seem, with perseverance and faith in God, anything is possible.

✨ Join the Journey

Fate isn’t just a video or an album—it’s a testament to resilience, faith, and the belief that no obstacle is too great to overcome. If the story behind this project resonates with you, I invite you to watch the video, share it with someone who needs encouragement, and carry its message forward.

This is more than music. It’s a reminder that perseverance and faith in God can turn even the hardest chapters into something powerful.
