Ghirardelli | S’mores

You haven’t had a s’more until you’ve had a s’more with Ghirardelli chocolate. Even as a life-long Ghirardelli fan, I had never tried it, and there is no going back! This incredibly fun shoot took place in my studio, where heat guns were instrumental in capturing perfectly glossy, melty chocolate. The addition of a hand model made the several s’more recipes authentic and ready to eat!

Ghirardelli | Cafe Line

We had an amazing time shooting B2B images of Ghirardelli’s products aimed at cafes and coffee shops. Incredibly creamy hot chocolate, rich frappes, and everything you’d hope to see in a high-end bakery case made for a jam-packed three day shoot. At each turn we ensured we had everything we needed for post-production magic to meet the extremely high standards of Ghirardelli.
