Hello there, sexy drip πŸ’§πŸ’“ Gosh, I love a good action shot, even when it's only one little drop of milk. I had so many different takes, but this one was the most dramatic. And yes, this is real, not AI.

Who loves a good loaf of sourdough bread?! 🍞πŸ₯– I've been on the journey of unlocking the secrets of homemade sourdough for almost 10 years now, and I still get excited every time the loaves come out of the oven! That crust, the fluffy crumb, the flavours!! πŸ’•πŸ˜‹
.
So naturally I got very excited when i was asked by to create a stop motion video with their starter kit. I love coming up with these little mini stories and bringing them to life πŸ˜ƒ. Their starter was tripled and bubbly in under 30 minutes and I was off baking... so easy.

Same client, very different style to the last photos I posted. The brief for this one was dreamy, natural, soft. It stretched me in the other direction, because naturally I like to use a lot of saturation and clarity in my edits. But that wouldn't have fit the product.

While challenging, sometimes it's nice to be pushed out of your comfort zone. Keeps it exciting!

Something a little different for me. πŸ’₯
This series was great fun to shoot. Bright simple colours, no props, just the cans and hands. Good challenge for someone who has a tendency to put too much stuff into a scene!

And yes the floor was soooo sticky afterwards. πŸ˜‚

Summer is over, and so is the lovely sunny light that creates such magic in our photos... πŸŒžβ˜€οΈHahaaa, if you've been following me you'll know I rarely shoot with natural light. Yes it is magical, but way too temperamental for my workflow. Love how versatile studio lighting is.
Whatcha think? Did I manage to make it look like a sunny afternoon in this shot?

If I had to pick only one aspect of my job to do again and again and again, it would be stop-motion videos. I feel so lucky that the guys at keep releasing new products that they want animated.
.
And the image on the package? Also mine πŸ˜ƒ So fun to walk through the supermarket and see products with your photo on it! Would absolutely loooove to do more of that, for sure! So if you need photos done for your packaging, or need your product animated, get in touch! Happy to help.
