Okay, so this shoot was planned slightly differently. But after thee cutest BarkBox toys arrived last night, we had to go in another direction and use them as props. We’re all professionals here so a slight change of plans the night before a shoot is a piece of cake, er a pie. I immediately started going through our costume inventory and remembered we had these two. Perfect! I mean who doesn’t think of their grandparents during the holidays? I do! I especially think of my grandmother and her delicious baked goods. Anyway, the shoot wasn’t expected to be this wholesome. But here we are. You’re welcome.
