nyc kids birthday party

PS Launch Party

Our Launch Party was June 8th at the Art Factory in Paterson, New Jersey. I was overly ambitious and produced a two look photo shoot for our Fall Campaign in addition to this Launch Party. I WILL NEVER DO THIS AGAIN! I was dead on my feet. In spite of this, everything looked amazing and the four vendors who rocked their tablescapes made my job a little easier.

A huge shout out to Digna of Digna Toledo Photography for shooting both the photo shoot and the party. Natasha of the Flair Factor, Chicona of Malani Signature Events, and Juanita of Willow & East THANK YOU so very much for participating. You all did an exceptional job highlighting our chairs. Also, thanks to Jennifer of Sweet Lil Sweets for donating those super tasty custom cookies as party favors. Each of these ladies went above and beyond and I truly appreciate all that they did in supporting Petite Seats.

A super duper shout out to my partner in crime and sounding board, my little sister Olesha of Oh Experience Photography for being on board from day one and supporting me as always.

Could not have done this without any of these women. Finding like minded business conscious women is a challenge, I've been fortunate to work with some kick a%? ladies who are true BOSSes.

I couldn't finish this post without publicly acknowledging my brother-in-law and his family for truly being my go to people the day of. They were movers, haulers, personal shoppers, and bartenders . . . All without a fuss. Love you guys. My hubby was also instrumental in me maintaining my sanity during the planning of the shoot and launch. He truly took Daddy Day Care to the heart and even wore our Petite Seats t-shirt in support. Gotta love the guy!

 

PS Fall Campaign: New York City State of Mind

I endeavored to combined the individual talents of  some of the tri-state areas special events companies to present a styled photo shoot focusing on the undeniable charm of sophisticated children. The spectacular nineteenth century historic industrial complex, the Art Factory, was the perfect location for this child sized photo shoot.

 

Capturing the lightness of children’s laughter, mixing beautifully detailed design, with petite sized simplicity, this styled shoot was inspired by the energy and excitement of New York City. The color palette was instigated by the colors of a New York City taxi cab: black, white, and yellow {With pops of red}.  Favors and More, LLC’s design and installation offered a new perspective for an over-the-top children’s birthday party. An added bonus were the sweet treats from the Traveling Cupcake. We hope this shoot will mark the first of many collaborations to come and will inspire more "tot sized" shoots.

Donna of the Traveling Cupcake was one of the first vendors to show interest in the shoot when I announced it on Instagram. Her sweet treats where amazingly designed and tasted great too. Her serene presence was an added bonus to the hectic environment of the shoot.

Yosi of Favors + More LLC is the BOMB.com. She was so willing to take on any role she felt was too much for me to handle alone. She single highhandedly found and selected the models for the shoot. Besides Casting Director, she and her sister created an out-of-this world design and setup. I told them the theme and they ran with it!

 

These women are super sweet, talented, and true BOSSes. Thanks so much for making Petite Seats look so good.
