My role at October Creative extends beyond that of a photographer or videographer; I often step in as the food and prop stylist. I love crafting visually compelling compositions in each frame. Whether collaborating with Love & Lemons and Cookie + Kate or partnering with brands like Vitamix, I have refined my skills in showcasing recipes and products with perfectly paired props to create engaging content. This experience has provided me with the opportunity to consistently explore and enhance my approach to food and prop styling.

Vitamix approached October Creative for assistance in producing a series of summer recipe videos with the goal of showcasing the step-by-step process for each recipe, featuring Vitamix products. This sequence of shoots remains among my favorites to date. I thoroughly enjoy collaborating on set with other team members to bring these recipes to life. The process below highlights elements of pre-production and day-of moments, along with the final result.
