Art Imitates Snacks, Rebecca Peloquin Captures Beaded Food Creations

On the left, a beaded Chester’s Hot Fries bag sits among fast-food debris—an empty fry cup, a lighter, receipts, and the classic plastic "Thank You" bag—giving it a casual, late-night bodega feel. On the right, a beaded Haribo Goldbears bag is surrounded by scattered gummy bears, its shimmering threads mimicking the glossy plastic of the actual product.

At first glance, these images look like everyday snack shots—Haribo gummy bears, Chester’s Hot Fries, a crumpled receipt, a half-empty Coke can. But look closer, and you’ll see something else: these products aren’t real—they’re made of beads.

Photographed by Los Angeles and New York-based food and product photographer Rebecca Peloquin, this series brilliantly blurs the line between reality and craft. The meticulous beaded recreations of snack packaging sit seamlessly among their real-world counterparts, challenging the viewer’s perception with intricate textures and hyper-precise details.

As a commercial food and product photographer, Peloquin’s ability to capture the surreal and unexpected elevates branding and visual storytelling. Whether working with real food or intricate art inspired products, her work brings a fresh, conceptual edge to commercial photography.
