A Sweet Celebration: Retro Treats Commercial Shoot

There’s nothing quite like a project that lets you play with color and nostalgia. For the Retro Treats brand commercial, I had the pleasure of heading up Hair, Makeup, and Wardrobe Styling.

I focused on clean, glowing makeup and playful hairstyles—like the patterned headwrap and soft curls—to reflect a modern yet vintage-inspired energy. For styling, I chose bold, cozy knits that popped against the studio and kitchen backdrops, ensuring the talent felt relatable and full of life.

It was a fast-paced, high-energy shoot with plenty of "product testing" (the sugar rush was real!), and I loved seeing how the cohesive styling brought the whole brand story together.
