From film sets to the tabletop.

Dina Jane Kaloti came to photography from the film industry. She's been collecting ordinary things for years: soaps, buttons, stones, textiles. Her pictures start there, with how an everyday object sits in the world.

For brands, that means product shot with a point of view: considered placement, styling done on set, and simple items turned into a picture someone stops for.
