My holiday food is typically homey, rustic, and usually in the “ugly delicious” category that most Eastern European Jewish foods tend to be. It’s yummy, but it’s generally brown and boring looking. Not anymore! Time to get a glow up, because we are not just chopped liver around here! Bring in the sparkle, whimsy, an absurd amount of dill, and naturally, some mannequin hands, because shoot planning gets ridiculous sometimes. How about a drink topped with lox, bread, and pickle? Or perhaps a totke: the love child of a potato latke and a tater tot? Freshen it all up with a cucumber and onion salad. So simple, yet so amazing! Wishing you some colorful and sparkly holiday wishes.

When Pantone announced the Magenta was their color of the year, I was simply tickled pink. Enter pink lipglosses, shadows, lotions, and potions, and even some pink foods. Naturally, a little extra sparkle doesn’t hurt.

Whenever I get to photograph something colorful, I’m a happy gal. But, when I also get to create a fun and silly concept, I’m truly in my happy place. Bringing these toddler meal delivery kits to life was such a joy. Making the creative direction on these fun, whimsical, and quirky brought out my inner kid.
