Hi friend-

So far every summer he's been around- my son (the not so terrible 2) Toddler Danger has starred in a shoot where he has gotten to snack and be wild. For this year's triumph, prop stylist Jaclyn Kershek and I teamed up to explore food photography and what childhood means to us- mac + cheese, goldfish crackers, authentic kid drawings, endless blueberries and a big dose of chaos! 

In the span of just a few hours we shot:

•  (4) distinct setups- built a vintage pantry full of generational snack faves

• a dino nugget stop motion channeling Kid Cuisine realness

• splashed milk all of the studio and mostly cleaned it

• retrieved a child from daycare (don't worry, it was mine)

• dressed and styled him

• got proper cheesy

• and for good measure worked through a light head injury (why do they make plastic toys so hard!?!)

All with just the two of us. 

How did we do it? 

A great plan! 

When you book with me the thought, love and organization starts LONG before we get on set. Moodboards, sketches, down to the minute shot lists organized with care and print outs on set all help make sure when we hit the ground on our day- we do it running! We can make a lot of magic with a little planning!  

Want to come make a mess that makes me mop my studio floors? Drop me an email and tell me how!

Let's get wild 🖤 

xoxo
