Behind the Scenes with Christy Day: A “Day” on Set
Ever wonder what it’s like to be behind the scenes of a styled shoot with Christy Day Designs? Here’s an exclusive look into the magic that happens when preparation meets creativity on set. Whether styling a brand’s photoshoot or creating a unique setup for a homeowner’s space, each moment is crafted with care and precision.
As seen in these snapshots, the day starts with setting the stage—arranging textures, adjusting lighting, and fine-tuning the ambiance. Every detail matters, from the way light falls across a table to the placement of each accent. My goal is to translate your vision into a series of stunning, cohesive images that tell your story authentically.

A Collaborative Approach
From the moment I step on set, I’m working closely with the team. This includes photographers, marketing experts, photo assistants, and grips who help with moving large items and setting up/taking down scenes. Communication is key, ensuring everyone is aligned on the vision and the schedule. These team dynamics allow for a seamless workflow, so we stay on time and accomplish capturing the designs.
Balancing Planning with Spontaneity
Much of the success of any styling session lies in preparation. I meticulously source and arrange every element ahead of time—furniture, accessories, fabrics, and accents are all chosen to enhance the space and tell the right story. But as the day unfolds, there's room for spontaneous adjustments. Some of the best moments come from unexpected inspirations—whether it's the light shifting or a new perspective on the setup. This organic process often results in images that are even more impactful than initially imagined.
Bringing It All Together for You
One of the things my clients appreciate most is the ease of working with me. I manage the styling details so you can focus on your expertise, be it your brand message or the heart of your home. The end result? A beautifully styled shoot that captures your story while allowing you to spend more time doing what you do best.
