This retro photography series was inspired by an imaginative summer party I always dreamt about as a kid, my grandparent’s generation and the gorgeous set design from The Marvelous Mrs Maisel. Together with a food stylist Charlotte Fuller, we wanted to create delicious, over-the-top desserts and appetisers that would make you feel nostalgic for an era of hosting.
