TULSA, Okla., Nov. 15, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — In 2019, adventure seeking couple from Oklahoma, Jason Burks and Tayler Garber got married. The pair met while rock climbing in Arkansas and fell in love over shared hobbies and a genuine curiosity with the world they live in. After getting married, Jason wondered if hitting the road for a 12,000 mile road trip across the United States to climb three of America’s most prominent peaks would strengthen the couple’s bond and create a deeper connection.
Jason, a filmmaker, and Tayler, a writer, decided to document this journey, which resulted in the creation of a 13-episode series called “Love on the Rocks,” which was recently sold to Outside Studios in October 2022.
“In a culture where marriage is on the decline, our hope was to create something that people could watch and experience the ups and downs of the first year of marriage with us. We wanted to create something that challenged not only us, but the viewers to think about how stepping outside your comfort zone could actually bring you closer together. Lastly, we wanted to create a show that left people feeling good about the world we live in. A family friendly show that blends reality with outdoor adventure, a pretty unique thing in the entertainment market,” said Jason Burks.
This series explores the first year of marriage between the couple as they skydive, rock climb, mountaineer, and roadtrip over 12,000 miles across the United States in their Jeep – all while examining if this epic road trip will bring them closer together or tear them apart! The episodes were written, produced, filmed, and edited by the couple’s local production company, Retrospec Films.
