Aerum Labs develops a wearable that monitors brain activity — a category where imagery too easily reads as laboratory equipment. Photographed on the founder, on location, the device reads instead as a finished consumer product. A single shoot day produced the hero image, the social triptych and the complete campaign grid.

We photograph the founder who built the product, not a hired model. That authenticity is what audiences respond to. Peyton Kocher · Creative Director

Team EditorialProductBrand Stills

Elevon Medical builds equipment that allows healthcare workers to lift and transfer patients safely. Rather than photographing the device clinically, we centred the campaign on the founding team — warm interiors, natural interaction, and the transfer board presented as it is actually used. This imagery now leads their investor and marketing materials.

One Scoop is a daily longevity formula built on senolytics. Entering one of the most competitive categories in wellness, it needed a distinctive visual language: considered props, a controlled palette and a rigorous typographic system. Art direction, photography and layout were delivered as launch-ready assets within one week.
