There are very few brands that will let you dump sprinkles on someone’s head and call it a branding shoot, which is exactly why Sweet Action is the best. This shoot was playful, weird, and unapologetically fun, which perfectly matches their ice cream. More brands should let things get a little messy.

Golden hour on a rooftop always delivers, but this space at the Kimpton Claret really took it to another level. The greenhouse structure, the mountain backdrop, the way the light hits right before sunset. This was one of those shoots where you just keep turning around and finding another angle that works. Rooftops should always feel a little magical. Did you know you can rent out this private space for your next event?

This shoot with was all about leaning into the ritual of a drink without the alcohol. Mushroom-based, thoughtfully crafted, and honestly just really cool to photograph. I loved playing with texture, color, and movement to give these drinks the same visual energy you’d expect from a cocktail shoot. Proof that non-alc doesn’t have to feel boring. Also shoutout to for her yummy mocktail recipes 🍸

Honestly, if a hotel lets you bring your dog and curl up like this, I’m already sold.

Kimpton Claret nails that cozy-but-cool balance: elevated design, relaxed energy, and space that actually invites you to slow down.Also… Mugsby absolutely stole the scene. 🐾
