From Wedding Photographers To Artists - How Our 100 Set Project Changed Us
By Jada Parrish | Article | 04/25/22
Weddings ruled our life for 9 years. David and I started our wedding photography career in 2013 when a friend of a friend called us up in need of a wedding photographer and was wondering if we could help. I was 22 fresh out of college with a degree in photography and desperately searching for any job that I somewhat enjoyed and could pay my rent. This call was a godsend. And just like that, David ...
Lost in Space Photoshoot with Prism Lens FX
By Jada Parrish | Conceptual Photography | 10/08/24
Not every shoot goes according to plan… With our personal projects, we love challenging ourselves to try new things and experiment with new gear and materials. It helps us build our toolkit, so when big client projects come around, we know exactly how to use different techniques. But sometimes, these experiments don’t play out the way we expect. Prism Lens FX sent us a myster...
What Difficult Clients Can Teach You About Confidence
By Jada Parrish | Article | 10/01/24
Not every client will be your dream client—and that’s okay. We all know that. But sometimes, you’ll run into clients who are, well, “difficult.” So how do you handle it when you're photographing someone like that? "Difficult" can mean different things to different people, but here I’m talking about clients who are rude, disrespectful, or hard to work with durin...
Cartoon Coffin Photoshoot BTS with Kevin Smith and Harley Quinn Smith
By Jada Parrish | Conceptual Photography | 09/16/24
We built coffins for Kevin Smith and Harley Quinn Smith for a photoshoot that was equal parts spooky and cartoony. The color palette was black and red to give it a dramatic, bold vibe. Our goal with the coffins was to make them look almost hand-drawn. We went oversized with them to enhance the playful, cartoonish feel, and David used uneven, dramatic angles to really give them that quirky, an...

Kevin Smith and Harley Quinn Smith just dropped a new podcast called Beardless, D*ckless Me, and we had the chance to shoot the cover art for it! We flew out to Los Angeles back in May for the shoot and had such a blast working with them both. Their podcast is out now, so definitely check it out! Something unexpected happened though. We were watching Kevin Smith on Late Night with Seth ...
Pushing Creative Boundaries with xTool S1 Laser Cutter and Aputure Lighting
By Jada Parrish | | 09/14/24
We love creating sets in all shapes and sizes, constantly pushing the boundaries of what a set can be. How small can you make it? How big? Recently, we got our hands on some exciting new gear: an xTool S1 laser cutter, Aputure Infinibars, and the Aputure 600C. Naturally, we had to put all these cool tools to work in one shoot! David has been using a CNC machine for a while to create many of our ...
Is Your Bad Energy About Social Media Keeping You from Getting the Attention You Deserve?
By Jada Parrish | Article | 09/04/24
Social media can feel like a double-edged sword. On one side, it offers endless opportunities to connect, engage, and grow your brand or business. But on the other, it can be incredibly overwhelming, especially if you approach it with the wrong mindset. If you’re feeling frustrated by a lack of engagement or reach, it’s worth asking yourself: Is your negative attitude toward social med...
Upgrading the Audio in Our Videos to Rode Wireless PRO
By Jada Parrish | Article | 08/07/24
There’s something special about unboxing new gear, especially when it’s something like the RODE Wireless PRO. We needed a mic system that could keep up with our creative projects, and this little powerhouse quickly became a favorite. I’m especially excited to upgrade our audio for the new courses we’ll be launching on our Gumroad page soon, and the fact that it connects sea...
