Over a 3-day shoot at our studio, we worked again with the incredible team at Starbucks Reserve to create a suite of images for their seasonal food, beverages, and merchandise. We focused on the materiality and luxury of being in one of their roasteries, and created sets that invoked a sense of fall while retaining a subtle, artful sense about the overall look. Many of these photos (like so often happens!) need to be utilized across multiple platforms, and so were carefully arranged to fit all needed uses, including print.
