If you happened to hear a lot of giggling, loud pop music, and absolute roaring cheers coming from the studio this past Sunday afternoon, don't worry—everything was perfectly fine. In fact, it was better than fine. We were hosting a last-minute, chaotic-but-perfect photoshoot with Cori and her absolute best friends, and it was a total blast!
Honestly, I planned the whole thing at the very last second, but the stars aligned and all the girls were able to make it.
The afternoon started with me running around doing some prep work while blasting Justin Bieber’s new track, Daisies (Macy is a massive Bieber fan, so you know we had to start there). Once the girls arrived, we kept the vibes immaculate with some Sabrina Carpenter playing in the background while they got ready.
The Main Event: Moss & Monarch
Brynley is a natural and full of expressions!
The big goal for the day was capturing photos for our upcoming Moss & Monarch Collection, which officially drops on June 1st.
(Psst... if you are reading this as a newsletter subscriber, you actually get early access on May 31st! We will be sending the entire collection directly to your inbox so you can claim your favorites first).
The girls did an incredible job modeling the new pieces. But once we got all the official shots we needed for the new launch, I let them loose! They got to dive straight into our inventory vault and pick out absolutely anything they wanted to model.
"If you aren't modeling, you're cheerleading!"
To keep things running smoothly, we set up a little earring-cleaning station for the pieces being swapped around. But the absolute best rule of the day was this: If you weren't actively in front of the camera modeling, your official job was to be a cheerleader for whoever was.
Seeing them hype each other up, jump around, and shout compliments from behind the camera was the absolute cutest thing. Because of that rule, we captured so many incredible, genuine expressions and real smiles. It wasn't just a photoshoot; it was a whole afternoon of taking bestie photos, wearing matching jewelry, and hanging out with your favorite people.
To say thank you to my amazing mini models, each girl went home with a pair of earrings of her choice, a personal discount code for any future pieces, and full access to all the final, clean-edited photos from the day.
