Creamie Sippies is a fast-growing matcha and coffee beverage brand making waves on TikTok and Instagram with its aesthetic, creamy drinks. As part of their brand refresh and content expansion, they approached NLS Creative to produce a styled drink photography campaign tailored for social media virality and Gen Z engagement.

Creative Direction & Styling

We proposed a pastel color palette with soft hues of mint green, lilac, blush, and beige to complement the product’s creamy textures and youthful vibe. Inspired by Japanese café culture and TikTok minimalism, we ensured each frame was:

  • Playful yet polished

  • On-trend with social media aesthetics

  • Designed for engagement, perfect for reels, stories, and static grid posts

Pre-Production

NLS Creative managed the full pre-production process, including:

  • Sourcing a bright, minimalist kitchen studio

  • Curating props: ceramic cups, pastel trays, bamboo straws, matcha tools, soft linen textures

  • Food and drink styling on set to elevate layers, swirls, and frothy details

  • Moodboard and shot planning for drink angles, color flow, and lighting transitions

Photoshoot Highlights

  • Close-up macro shots to capture foam, layering, and condensation

  • Flat lays and side angles with playful prop compositions

  • Experimental lighting techniques, including backlight glow, gradient shadows, and soft diffused setups to create a dreamy feel

  • Dynamic use of spills, pours, and spoon-stirring motions for lifestyle energy

We delivered both clean eCommerce-style shots and editorial content ready for TikTok and IG.
