One of the best things about our photoshoots are the models. They’re adorably cute and we love seeing their personalities shine on and off camera! This year, we shot our Holiday Collection in Los Angeles, the home of our new HQ, and were lucky to have some friends of the brand join us to help showcase the collection. And in today’s blog, you’ll meet them!
Meet Riley
First, meet Riley. We met Riley through our founder Maradith and were so lucky to have her join us at our holiday photoshoot with her siblings. Riley is in 5th grade at Chime Charter in Los Angeles, and is a sweet, sassy, funny little girl who also happens to have special needs. She shared these responses with us after the shoot:
What was your favorite part of the photoshoot?
I liked my mom seeing me take the photos. I also had fun with my brother and sister!
Do you like the pajamas?
Yes - they are soft and stretchy! I also like the colors.
What is your favorite thing about the holiday season?
I like listening to all of the holiday music.
Riley’s mom shared the following about what it meant to have her included in the campaign:
Riley is a smart, beautiful girl with limitless possibilities. To anyone who sees the holiday campaign photos, she’ll look like any kid, not one who has special needs. This offers a powerful message that all children can be cast in mainstream projects and, more importantly, that they can be seen as typical while defying the norm.
Meet Bowie & Nixon
The next models who joined us at our holiday photoshoot are Erin on our Merchandising Team’s sons, Nixon and Bowie. These two adorable brothers modeled with their four month old baby brother, Ollie, and truly shined on camera at their first photoshoot ever!
