Playing with Food at Metropolitan Market

One of my favorite parts of my role as a content creator at Metropolitan Market is directing and styling photoshoots. We capture all of our photography in-house, which allows us to produce a precise, on-brand creative vision across our promotional materials. Here are some examples of my styling work for the 2025 holiday season and 2026 winter wellness campaign, composed in collaboration with our photography team, Manic Pixel Studio. These images were used for socials, emails, and our website.

I’ve also been on camera for Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube videos. I developed an autumn simmer pot recipe, wrote the script, and recorded the voiceover so it synced seamlessly with the visuals (and made my hand-model debut!). And you just might catch me casting a spell or two in our Halloween candy-and-cheese pairings video.

Another one of my primary responsibilities is writing blog articles that highlight in-season grocery items and tasty recipes, drawing connections between these premium products and our customers' lifestyles. I take a journalistic approach, researching little-known facts and interviewing local farmers and artisans who bring true passion to their craft. Here are a few articles showcasing Washington’s finest flavors:
