Happy first day of fall! We’re excited to share our STEAM-y news with you.
SHOOT WITH ELISABETH CAREN
The stars aligned when award-winning photographer Elisabeth Caren came on board to shoot our first official Scirens press photos! We couldn’t be more thrilled with the looks she created and captured (plus, she’s a total joy to work with–not to mention a fellow redhead!).
We are excited to release the first few shots from the shoot–one of which we were able to use to support Loreal’s For Women in Science campaign. Stay tuned for more pictures. Thank you, Elisabeth!

ELEMENT A DAY IN MAY
We had too much fun writing and shooting these short videos for Everyday Science TV. Thanks, Jessie Hendricks, for having us on! Taryn took on hassium head on, Tamara vindicated vanadium, and Gia sang Nickelback… uh, gave a nod to nickel. Below is our trifecta take on tellurium. Enjoy!
