After a busy and hectic 2020, we were fortunate enough to find ourselves deep in the Sonoma valley to film the new DTC heavyweights, Haus.

It was the two Bernese Mountain dogs who greeted us as we pulled the car into their unpaved driveway, their rooster Chuck who interrupted our interview every 15 minutes or so, it was hearing Woody and Helena geeking out over organic farming practices and startup life in Silicon Valley. It's not everyday you meet founders that live and breathe their brand so authentically.

The shoot ended but we didn't feel rushed to leave. They poured us a glass of Haus and turned on some music. We sat and talked in their enclosed patio til the sun went down. Maybe that's what Haus is all about? Giving yourself permission to slow down & to treat yourself too while you're at it.
