Today I’m sharing some behind the scenes photos and snippets about the Levi’s® feature I posted about yesterday. It was produced by Federated Media with Remedy Editorial. Such an amazing team to work with. Thank you all for the wonderfully kind things you’ve said about the video, it made for a really warm + fuzzy Valentine’s Day!
Keep reading to see more photos and a few snippets from the shoot…
There was a stylist! (Crazy!) And it took that stylist a whole lot of makeup to get me camera ready. I think the last time I had foundation on was my wedding (you know how I feel about makeup, generally)
We started the shoot at the beach and then went back to our home where we did the majority of the shooting. Afterwards, we went to a local craft store and downtown. The dining room here was the only room we weren’t shooting in so that was where all the equipment landed. I didn’t really have time to stress about all these people and equipment in my house, it was such a whirlwind of a day!
This was kind of a typical scene during the day. Our apartment crammed with people who each were responsible for one small piece of the production. Also, see how light filled our bedroom looks? They had huge artificial lights in every corner. It was wonderful! I wanted the lights to stay permanently.
I know it looks like we were doing the YMCA dance here, but we were actually making Xs! I love Henry’s little tilted head x. He kills me!
The second day we went to the Levi’s store downtown to shoot a few scenes getting measured with the Curve Id system and trying on some different pairs in the dressing room. That was the funniest part, the dressing room. When I walked in ready to shoot there were two dudes with cameras propped up on the dressing room walls peering over me. Looking just like standard dressing room perverts! I was half giggling throughout that entire shot.
