One thing Seattle has in an overabundance is creative makers. I’ve been privileged to work with several highly skilled designers in showcasing their work. This photo shoot was carefully organized by Erica-Steel Toe Studio maker. We had the help from amazing wardrobe stylist Deb Tudor. Our models were Kara & Temple, a wonderful real life couple. The concept behind the shoot came from the inspiration that Erica’s customers shop with. She typically gets orders from couples celebrating 6 & 8 year anniversaries. She wanted to show a couple have a low key anniversary date night out without the kids. We had a blast shooting around the beautiful Brewery Blocks area of Tacoma. There’s a mixture of historic buildings & lovely retail & restaurants.
Here’s what the designer Erica has to say about her brand:
”Here at Steel Toe Studios, we believe anniversary gifts should be as exceptional as the love being celebrated. Owned and operated by artist Erica Gordon, our studio handcrafts meaningful jewelry and personalized belt buckles in Seattle, Washington.
The creative process nourishes us — from design to prototype and raw material to the finished piece. Our fellow artists, friends, families, and customers who support us through challenges and celebrate our triumphs are part of our studio every day. This connection to our community inspires us to design with meaning and craft with intent. Our creative collaborations have transformed Steel Toe Studios from a one-woman studio into the dynamic small team you know today.”
