Dagger Holiday Cocktails
A small crew from the Dagger art team decided to flex our creative muscles and create a series of original holiday cocktails—designed, styled, and photographed just for the fun of it. Tabletop shoots and styling are some of my favorite things, and this project was an absolute dream—a love letter to textures, lighting, set design (and let’s be honest, probably my personal glassware collection too).
With an experienced mixologist on the team, we had a blast crafting unique recipes and bringing them to life through carefully curated scenes. From the drinks to the details, every frame was a chance to play, experiment, and celebrate the magic of making things look really good. Try the cocktails at your own risk—photographing them was half the fun, but tasting them? Even better.
