Pepsi x Photographer Aleksandra Kingo

Aleks Kingo was on a layover in Bangkok, one flight into a holiday, when the message landed. "Are you available next week, Aleks?"

 

The Pepsi Treats campaign came together wonderfully at the last minute and it was one of those jobs that was so good it was worth derailing a holiday for! Aleks partnered with Big Time Creative on this one, shooting the campaign stills alongside the TVC production. The campaign turned small, everyday moments into something worth celebrating, with a visual world built to feel as rewarding as the treat itself.

 

Having worked with this team before, Aleks was able to jump right in and help bring the creative to life. While shooting alongside motion typically can mean staying off to the side, her relationship with the creative team and the nature of the production allowed the stills team to have real room to breathe. She partnered with agency and production to shape scenarios, and make sure they were landing key visuals everyone loved.

 

Aleks said it best herself: "These are always the sweet-spot jobs for me, big, fast, slightly chaotic, but with enough trust to make something sharp and polished inside all that movement."
