As the school year draws to a close soon, we wanted to share some work we recently produced for one of our clients, Jostens. We worked hand in hand with their in-house marketing team and on-staff photographer to capture a library of images featuring their wide breadth of product. Shoot one focused on customizable mascot themed apparel wear. Shoot 2 was focused on regalia items like class rings, belt buckles, etc..
A different location every day, with two different teams for two different shoots, kept us on our toes and our point of view fresh.
Images were used across social media and digital marketing platforms.

Recently we collaborated on a project for Essor on their Viking Revolution brand. Viking Revolution started as a digital native men’s grooming brand in 2016. In 2026 it took the leap into Walmart stores nationwide after a decade of success in the digital space. We had a great time on set with the team that made this magic happen.

Towards the end of 2025, we had the fun opportunity to work on the Lunds and Byerly’s “Unwrap the Savings” holiday campaign with Rise and Shine and Partners.
Every Wednesday through November and December Lunds & Byerlys unwrapped a new surprise deal. There was a social post teaser with items creatively wrapped in custom Lunds & Byerly’s wrapping paper, followed with reveal gif. Each unwrapping gif revealed the new items that were on sale that week. Their social forward campaign came with a creative in-store component as well. The in-store displays had outline shots of all the products on sale featured in individual life size boxes.
Special thanks to Erika Schumacher and photographer Colleen Guenther for having us on the project.
