Poolside Perfection: Summer of Tea Shoot at Omni Hotel

At Kathy Tran Creatives, we’re all about bringing visions to life with a blend of creativity, professionalism, and a splash of fun. The team has had the opportunity to work with Omni over the years, but the recent “Summer of Tea” campaign really put us in the summer spirit!

Our goal for this shoot was to create captivating still shots that showcase Omni’s summer pool menu in all its glory. From refreshing drinks to vibrant dishes, we wanted every shot to evoke the light, breezy feel of a summer garden party.

In order to do this, we drew inspiration from light pastel tones and watercolor-like backdrops. We focused on creating high-contrast, dramatic lighting with plenty of shadow elements to make each dish and drink stand out. Props like colorful straws, flowers, and beachy items brought that summer vibe to life.

Omni’s drink menu was a true highlight of the shoot. From the Cooling SPF, with its aloe leaves and lime garnishes, to the Energizing Earl Gray Bee’s Knees with honey and lavender accents, each cocktail was as beautiful as it was delicious. And the food didn’t take a backseat either...we styled and shot a variety of dishes as each dish was carefully arranged to showcase its fresh, vibrant ingredients. Showing off the vivid colors of the Melon Salad to the intricate details of the Earl Grey Cheesecake.

One of the best parts of this project was seeing how all the elements came together to create a cohesive theme. The colors, the lighting, the props—it all worked in harmony to tell showcase a perfect summer day by the pool. And that’s exactly what we strive to do at Kathy Tran Creatives, take a concept and turn it into a visual experience that’s not only beautiful but also meaningful.
