The deal
What this is
Low-lift for you, real on-location content for us.
You get
- A set of pieces to keep — the vest, a hat, sunglasses, a mat or scarf, sized for you and your kid.
- Creative freedom. Shoot it the way you shoot everything else.
- A flat fee on paid collabs (we'll say which up front).
We ask
- A handful of photos and a reel or two from the trip.
- The right to repost and to run the best frames as ads (details below).
- A clear "gifted" or "paid partnership" tag, per FTC rules.
Who we're looking for
The fit
If most of these sound like you, we'd love to talk.

The shots
What to capture
Loose guide, not a shot-by-shot script. The point is real moments, shot consistently.
The vibe
- Natural light only — morning or golden hour. No harsh midday sun, no flash.
- Vertical first (9:16) for reels and stories, plus a few horizontal.
- Fabric softly rumpled, kids loose in the frame. Never stiff or posed.
- Parent + kid in the same palette — coordinating, not matching.
- Leave a little empty space in some frames so we can add text for ads.
The moments
- The morning — coffee on the balcony, the walk to breakfast.
- The park or courtyard between gelato and dinner. The mat goes down.
- The vest layered on a cool morning; the hat on the kid in the sun.
- One full-length, one closer 3/4, one detail (fabric, zip, brim).
- One over-the-shoulder or from-behind option — great if you'd rather not show faces.

No
Studio lighting, stiff poses, hard midday sun.
Head-to-toe matching outfits.
Bright primaries, character prints, heavy filters.
