Eric Trine Los Angeles studio
5 / 25

Trine keeps a lot of plants and “vibe stuff” around. “I’m a hyper Instagrammer, so I have a rule that anything coming through the studio, I just shoot it. There are so many people in this field who take photos in their workspace and make it look like it’s not staged or set up. But I’m like, ‘Your wood shavings didn’t expertly land that way.’ There’s a lot of staging. So I decided early on, if I’m gonna shoot my stuff, I’m gonna very visibly set it up. Things didn’t accidentally end up this way. Everybody knows that I set this up and I that I took some time to do that. That’s become an essential part of the visual culture of my brand.”
