Here at Tea, we go there. We travel to discover. To dream. To connect. We want to open up the world for all little citizens – whether it’s exploring a new place or having a new experience in your neighborhood. This Spring, when it came to casting for our catalogs, we didn’t reach out to our usual agencies, instead… We reached out to our Bay area neighbors. We wanted to connect and meet our local little citizens. We wanted to give them the opportunity to have a new experience right here in their own city! We met some pretty adorable and imaginative kids, and today we’d like to introduce them to you! Meet a few of faces you’ll see in our catalogs this season.
And those numbers on their white boards? Those are their sizes…
Meet Lucynne, a 5-year-old from San Francisco, California. Lucynne’s favorite animal is a jaguar. Her favorite part of the Tea Collection photo shoot was running on the beach! If she could go anywhere in the world, she would go to Armenia.
Meet Kai, a 4-year-old from San Francisco, California. Kai’s favorite animal is a giraffe and he loves the color blue. His favorite part of the Tea Collection photo shoot was making new friends and playing with them on the bus in between shots and traveling on an airplane (to our shoot in San Diego which you will see in our summer catalog)! If he could go anywhere in the world, he would go to the jungle or Japan, where his cousins and relatives live.
Meet Shiloh, a 5-year-old from San Francisco, California. Shiloh’s favorite animal is a dog and she loves the color pink. Her favorite part of the Tea Collection photo shoot was eating ice cream on the shoot and playing with Adam and Hideaki (our photographer) on location in North Beach. If she could go anywhere in the world, she would go to Egypt!
Meet Safi, a 5-year-old from Oakland, California. Safi’s favorite animal is “anything that runs fast” and he loves the color silver. His favorite part of the Tea Collection photo shoot was licking the ice cream cone (said with a big smile)! If he could go anywhere in the world, he would go to Morocco because he was born there. A little citizen of the world, already!
Meet Riley, a 6-year-old from San Jose, California. Riley’s favorite animal is a mouse and she loves the color teal. Her favorite part of the Tea Collection photo shoot was getting to see all of the outfits! If she could go anywhere in the world, she would go to Japan or China.
Here are some shots from around San Francisco!
