Editorial Surreal Forced Perspective Hallway Set and Photoshoot
By Jada Parrish
Welcome to the forced perspective hallway shoot! We used striping and angles to create the illusion that the hallway is longer than it actually is.

Conceptual Spring Fashion Photo Shoot
By Jada Parrish
Here we go with set #12! Growth is hard. It's filled with ups, downs, and unexpected turns to the left. Sometimes it feels like you take two steps forward and three steps back, but as long as you keep persisting eventually you can reach your goal.   So this is a shoot of persistence. The inspiration came from the loos...
Laundry Day Ethereal Studio Photo Shoot

Throughout our journey to 100 shoots, we have been challenging ourselves with our lighting setups.

The More Burgers the Better Editorial Photo Shoot
By Jada Parrish
Cheeseburgers are basically the greatest thing ever. The only other comparable is really french fries. So what could be better than a shoot filled with cheeseburgers + french fries?!

Grapefruit Editorial Fashion Photo Shoot
By Jada Parrish
We went through a little grapefruit obsession this summer. They are such an underrated fruit. I love the color, how can you not?! They look like oranges from the outside but inside is something fresh and unexpected which I think is so refreshing. We stumbled upon this fun cocktail dress at Bygones and decided to create...
