The Stuff That Feeds Us

Part of Jen’s contribution to You Care Too Much included a series of images called “The Stuff that Feeds Us.” She created the concepts with photographer Vicky Lam and stylist Christina Yan. Each image reflects a personal story about the team’s relationships or history with food and self-care. Food is so nourishing and also tied to our memories, history and cultures. We tapped into a sense of whimsy and nostalgia to create crisp, dream-like images that reflected our individual stories. Jen loved learning about each story and coming up with visual ideas to express each one.
