A massive package had just arrived to our clients industrial facility.
We were at the tail end of our shoot day.
Their team quickly unboxed this bad-boy in hopes we could capture it before we wrapped.
One giant carton of rice later and we snagged a few more sweet looking visuals to help tell their story.
The martini shot...in the can πΈπ₯

As a parent you do some crazy things to keep your children entertained or engaged.
It felt like I was pulling rabbits out of hats during the pandemic, stay-at-home life to keep spirits high for all of us.
My daughters and I have had our fair share of memorable moments and traditions we've created together. Many that we still reminisce about today!
One dad from my previous "Dad's Enough" video series shares about his "Mind Blown" π€―
What other crazy parenting go-to's are you creating with your little people!

Let the MEAT drop!
ππ₯
Where's the beef, you say? Oh, we got it in slo-mo!
Fun times making meat magic in the kitchen. πͺπ¨π½βπ³

Maybe improving your mental health made the 2024 New Year's Resolutions list.
It could come from exercise, yoga, nutrition, and maybe even surrounding yourself with a new crowd or eliminating old habits...
It could even come from talking to someone π£
Yikes...talking to someone? π³
Talk therapy is not the only way to heal; it could be a solid place to start.
"You have what it takes. But you don't have to do it alone."

Visualization π
Seeing it before it exists.
Not every project requires exact minuscule details, but there are many benefits to scouting a filming location when possible.
It can be the dress rehearsal for your vision.
Sure, we'll also cover logistical things related to the shoot, talk lighting, etc...
Watch the connection from scout to shoot in this video.

Engineering the outdoors.
I saw it firsthand.
Ice fishing season brings out some great community.
A little ice village out there.

Maybe all you wanted for Christmas was a healthy pregnancy and to hear some little one eventually call you "Dad."
The miscarriages and unfortunate losses that can happen during pregnancy have wounded the souls of many individuals desiring to be a parent someday.
The final dad in this "Dad's Enough" video series is near to my heart as I watched the pain and price tag associated with a long, exhausting and, at times, hopeless journey to fatherhood.
I hope you enjoy Ron's story.
He's one heck of an older brother ππ½
And one heck of a Dad ππ

Merry Christmas from Stache on the Shelf and the rest of the Kessler crew!

Comparison can be an easy trap to slip into.
I'm the furthest from a "handyman" or "Bob The Builder," so I can π― relate to my good friend Terrence in this dad story.
"They're not looking for a dad that can build a treehouse... they're just looking for the dad that they know."
I'm not saying it's easy, especially with how inundated we are with the appearance of perfection flooding our social media feeds.
It takes effort, practice, grace and daily reminders that good old you is enough!

Our last confirmed shoot of '23 kicks off today with a fun client! π₯
I've been fortunate to collaborate with many talented individuals...
And solved in-the-moment problems with innovative crew members and clients.
Reflection takes practice, especially with mental visits from the"what's next" fairy ;)
Sometimes, jumping to the next project, story, or pitch can be easy.
So, each year around this time, I dig back into my phone to watch videos of behind-the-scenes moments I've captured while on set.
It was a year of meaningful opportunities, plenty of challenges, and dialed-in patience for what felt like a trying season for many brands and businesses.
Take a beat. See where this last year led you.
Take a breath. See where the next one takes you.

"The expectation of being a perfect dad is not realistic."
I am grateful for the vulnerability of these different dads featured in this little series. Letting us take a peek into their worlds to hear some valuable things they've learned along the way has been inspirational.
For all dads and moms who are juggling work and life...as you gear up for the holidays and then into some New Year's Resolutions, I hope you find a small ounce of relief in this idea of presence over perfection.
It's been hard for me to put into action continually, but definitely rewarding and freeing.

"Just Show Up."
Three simple words.
One massive impact.
I heard this before: "The quality of the father-child relationship matters more than the specific amount of hours spent together."
Quality over quantity!
To any dad, single-dad, stay-at-home dad, co-parent dad, works-on-the-road-dad...Keep Showing Up!
Your kids need your presence at every stage of their life.

Working with the talented Post-Production peeps over at DITCH was a blast last holiday season.
Making those hand-model ice cream cones pop out of the cartons to bring some holiday joy! β€οΈπ
Toss in a few practical effects and 'Tis The Season for all things peppermint...even π¦

"I have no idea what I'm doing...I just don't want to mess this up."
So honest.
So relatable.
So spot on.
The Guinea Pig to this little Dad video series, who graciously said yes (on the fly) to talking "Dad-Life" a few years back.
I didn't even give him time to shave the "Smasher-Stache".
It will forever be remembered π₯Έ
Keep raising healthy men, Mick!
