Life Is About Contrast
By Jada Parrish | Article | 01/30/24
I deeply believe that we are all connected – in our love, in our joy, but also in our pain. It’s a thread that binds us together in this enigmatic journey we call the human experience, filled with contrasts. None of us make it through life without experiencing moments of awe-inspiring beauty and profound lows, where it feels like we're being swallowed by darkness and pain. It’s a...
Using Slime In a Photoshoot
By Jada Parrish | Article | 01/26/24
This year, one of David's and my goals is to explore as many new materials as possible. While we typically rely on wood and paint for our sets, our recent experiments into using new materials have led our creativity down exciting new paths. Introducing new materials always brings a mix of excitement and uncertainty. It's impossible to predict how a new material will impact our work or how effectiv...

Through The Looking Glass Conceptual Shoot
By Jada Parrish | Conceptual Photography | 12/11/23
This shoot is the first in our series of micro sets. We wanted to see how small we could build a set and still get a big visual impact. We used a series of descending circles to create an optical illusion. This set may have a small footprint but the photos we created with it are wild. Check out our behind the scenes video of the set build and photo shoot.   If you want to s...
