Liam brought all the energy we needed for this "Energi Car Seat" shoot at Overlook Park in Lancaster, PA! ⚡️ 

When he wasn’t testing out the seat, Liam was busy kicking a soccer ball, flying a kite, or racing around with our Genspan model Brooks, who played the role of his pretend brother for the day!

Our product guru, Abby, and Liam became buddies for the day as she helped him get into the seat and made sure he was buckled in properly.

Spooky season is here, and we’ve got some fun Halloween snack ideas that your little ones will love! 

🍎 Apple Monsters – Slice up some apples, spread peanut butter inside, and add peanut “teeth” with marshmallow eyes for a cute (and slightly spooky!) monster treat.

🍌 Banana Ghosts – Peel a banana, add chocolate chips for eyes and a mouth! 

🍊 Clementine Pumpkins – Peel a clementine and stick a small celery stick in the center for a healthy pumpkin look-alike.

When your uninvited guest is slow but very determined 🐢…

Watch as this little guy tried to steal the spotlight during one of our capture sessions! Don’t worry, the crew gave him a VIP escort to safety! 😂

Look closely to meet our baby doll model, Stevie! 😉 This capture also featured agency models Nicole as "mom" and John as "dad”.

From the iconic Franklin Institute steps to a cozy corner café, a beautiful park, and the historic charm of Delancey Street, this capture covered 4 stunning Philly locations in just one day.

The energy was upbeat, and the team’s effort made it one of the most fun and seamless captures we've done. Plus, the final video became one of the most viewed in Europe for Myavo! 🎉
