Heart Health Month - Quaker

Last fall we were commissioned to shoot a Heart Health Month campaign for Quaker by The Marketing Arm.  We photographed a mother daughter and a husband wife having a 'heart talk' at a location in Wilmette, IL. The idea behind the heart talk is to involve family members of women in communicating with their loved ones about their health and raise awareness that heart disease is currently women's number one health risk.

Prevention - Aha! Moment

It wasn't a new year's resolution that led these women to jump start their extreme weight loss journeys. It all started with an Aha! moment. Last October, we had the pleasure of photographing three amazing women for Prevention magazine to accompany their personal weight loss stories. Combined, the three have lost an astounding total of 427 lbs. Their stories are focused on the moment they really decided to make a change for themselves. No dieting gimmicks, just harnessing the power of their Aha! moments. 

Because each woman was located in different state -- and one in a different country -- we had quite the road trip on our horizon. In order to complete the project, we first drove to Lima, Ohio - then to Wiarton, Ontario, and lastly to Portland, Maine. We flew home from there and rested for a few days after. I cannot thank the designers enough for making this piece look so great.

Following up to the Happy Thanksgathering post — we got to take a look at some of the print ads below. It's great to see how these messy moments came together.

Comcast Xfinity - Happy Holidays

It was great to work with the awesome Burrell team on this annual holiday campaign again, especially since this year's concept had a little Dad Time in it. Special thanks to all who helped make this happen.

THL Credit

Earlier this year, we completed a hybrid still and motion rebranding project for Boston-based THL Credit that has recently launched. Altogether, we shot lifestyle stills, video, interviews, and portraits for two days in Chicago and two days in Boston. Their new website has great visual impact and features the photography we did along with a brand video.

GrubHub Video

I'm really excited to share this video we shot during our recent GrubHub B2B lifestyle shoot. Leah Fithian was on motion cameras and Trevor Power helped us with some GoPro accents. Traci Weingardt did an amazing job cutting it together. Enjoy!

Grub Hub Lifestyle Photography

We had the opportunity in September to shoot for GrubHub, where we created a lifestyle image library to be used online and in print. We shot in a number of interesting locations to showcase the brand's versatility. From large corporate catering orders to individual meals from favorite local restaurants, GrubHub helps you find and order food from wherever you are.

We spent three days creating editorial style lifestyle images focused on candid, genuine, and aspirational moments. We spent time shooting downtown, in Wicker Park, Humboldt Park, and Lincoln Park and could not have asked for better weather for our outside scenes.
