This mom-and-son duo are close to our hearts at Clove & Kin! Alyss is one of our fabulous in-house editors, and she’s always bringing the style, the laughter, and the most adorable stories of her son, Jude! And Alyss is hands down the coolest mom around. It is so evident how she nurtures and loves her little guy, and lets him live out his larger-than-life personality!
Alyss also happens to be an incredible photographer, so Jude has basically grown up in front of the camera. Eventually, he started calling the shots anytime she’d be ‘grammin, and it began her collection of #directedbyjude photos! So when Blair and Alyss began to brainstorm fun ideas for the shoot, who better to act as creative director than the Judester himself? From their hammock tickle-fight to throwing Holi Powder at each other’s faces, each scene is a genuine reflection of this pair’s silly, sweet, and incredibly close bond. They are like two peas in a pod!
Alyss and Jude, it meant the world to us to spend the morning capturing these moments with you! We hope that you treasure them for years to come!
