Bored Panda reached out to Sholom Ber Solomon once again to get an inside look at the behind-the-scenes of these funny photoshoots. While many kids aren’t thrilled about dressing up, we were curious to know how Zoe and Olivia feel about these dress-up sessions. "The girls absolutely love photoshoot days," Solomon replied. "Now that the girls are a little older and understand what we are doing they love adding to the collection of fun photos/videos. They often go through the sbsolly account and just giggle at how silly they are and scroll through the fun memories of making them."
We often see only the final results of all the hard work that goes into these photoshoots, but there are definitely some challenging and less enjoyable parts of the preparation process. According to Solomon, finding the perfect locations can take a lot of time. "I realized early on that sometimes people may see the photos and not realize some of the work that goes on before creating it. For example, each photo/video has to have the right environment to make it work- so there are times I’m scouting locations which can take a lot more time and effort than people would think. It's the small things for me that make the difference."
While the dress-up photoshoots are a standout tradition, we wanted to dive deeper into Sholom Ber Solomon's family life. Beyond the costumes and creativity, are there other special activities or traditions he shares with his daughters that help nurture their bond? "For the holidays the kids got Rummikub and there hasn't been a day since that we haven't played. The girls are so good at figuring out how to win- they definitely don’t get their number skills from their father."
Sholom Ber Solomon’s creative photoshoots are more than just fun moments—they’re shaping his daughters' childhoods in unique ways. So we couldn’t help but wonder: how might these experiences influence Zoe and Olivia as they grow older? Does he hope to inspire them to maintain their playful and creative spirit? "I really don't think much about how it may inspire them in the future," the father shared. "I merely hope they look back and know that their dad loved them and that they have the most silly and jolly memories of their childhood."
