When, at long last, a story is published. At this time last year, our team arrived for three days of prep, plus two days of shooting at Heather and Brad Fox’s midcentury lakeside dream.

We loved how it turned out, but we have to wait to share any “behind the scenes” photos until after it’s published. I admit that can be hard because after all the work the homeowners and teams put it, it would be great to have some instant gratification, but I did store away some photos that I can share now.

Abbey, my lovely and talented assistant, and I working in all the pillows, throws, tabletop, and flowers.

Abbey as the stand-in for one of the boys!

The Fox boys doing their thing for the shot.

And the shot, as viewed on photographer Adam Albright’s monitor.

The Fox family pooch, Ivy, chilling on the pillows we had set aside for now.

Tiff Mueller, who assisted with soft styling (thank the gods), while I look like I am not being helpful.

Everyone zero-ing in on the shot while Abbey and I overthink the sofa styling.
