Hyde Park Jewelers 2021 Holiday Magazine
One of the most difficult things for independent artists - actually, for any artist, because agents need to track this stuff down as well - is getting ahold of images and/or video from photo shoots. In general, I’m lucky if I see images or video from advertising gigs, especially if it’s social media content or imagery for a mass brand, but I always receive copies of magazines my work has been featured in. Sometimes, it takes a while for me to get around to scanning images if I don’t receive digital files, but when the client is both a wonderful creative collaborator and supportive of your work, it’s a trade off I’m willing to take.
So, here is a video from last year’s holiday magazine for Hyde Park Jewelers, shot by photographer and director Edwin Santos. What makes this project particularly exciting to work on is that the publication is released in at least three different markets, plus the images are used for advertising nation-wide. Of course, spending the day styling gorgeous fashion pieces with A-list fine jewelry and watch brands is also the exact kind of work I love doing.
Which is why it was so much fun to shoot Hyde Park Jewelers 2022 next holiday magazine just a few weeks ago (we wrapped shooting late August). This year’s shoots were bigger scale and more conceptual, so I’m excited to see the new images this November! -xo
