RUSTY HILL + PECAN DELUXE

May 17, 2024

Photographer/Director Rusty Hill jumped at the chance to team up with our wonderful partners at Pecan Deluxe. This dynamic company is all about fun, providing inclusions to a wide of array of clientele worldwide. Their mission for this shoot was to provide a kaleidoscope of images to refresh their website and provide assets for trade shows and other point of sale items. The options were endless—popping candies, crunchy granola's, delectable baked goods, whimsical sprinkles, luscious pralines, and even popping boba.

Picture this: a whirlwind of colors dancing before Rusty's lens. This shoot was like stepping into a candy wonderland. With so much vibrancy and texture on display, narrowing down the shots to our favorites was a delicious challenge. We have managed to pare it down to a few gems to share with you. Feast your eyes on these delightful images!

✨ Why Custom Illustration Matter ✨ Why icons deserve a second look! Icons are often treated like a checkbox - something to grab from a stock library or pull from an existing UI kit. But when they’re built intentionally, they become one of the most quietly powerful tools in your creative arsenal. Custom icons do more than reinforce a brand. They clarify communication. They guide users. They bring visual consistency to even the most complex projects - across digital, print, packaging, environments, and campaigns. Illustrator James Nelson approaches icon work with that kind of purpose. His sets are clean, strategic, and built to flex—whether they’re solving for user experience, packaging hierarchies, internal comms, or large-scale marketing systems.
