Here’s some behind the scenes footage from my Marionette project. The idea started with an open-call from our ASMP chapter to use models here in Nashville. I don’t work with models much but thought this would be a great opportunity to use models as props…almost interacting with food. From there the ideas started to flow. [...]
Here’s the May 2013 desktop calendar / wallpaper image for you to use on your own computer. (download here) This is from a shoot we did recently with a client.

Well, as is my apparent habit now I’m about three weeks into this month before I report on last month’s highs and lows. March was a busy month. Lots of great client work, lots of family fun and lots of anticipation of spring…warmer weather, warmer weather, warmer weather. Highs. I had the honor of being [...]
Here are tear sheets from the November issue of Diabetes Forecast. Yes, I know, I’m a bit tardy on getting this posted to the blog. At least I got these up before Memorial Day…isn’t that the rule. :) Credit to Whitney Kemp for food styling, and thanks to the rest of our crew. -Kyle
Over the past few years I’ve had somewhat of an obsession with tying up food. Let’s call it a fascination…obsession sounds a little bit too psycho, and I’m not that. At least I don’t think I am. Norman? If you’ve seen my food pairings series you’ve watched as I’ve tied meatballs to San Pellegrino with [...]

I realize I’m a bit tardy on posting February’s highs and lows. I have no excuse. Sure, I’ve been busy but my lack of commitment to getting a “high/low” blog post for February is very apparent. But today I am determined. I am committed. I am going to do this. Here goes… February isn’t really [...]
Well, you asked for it…or maybe you didn’t. Regardless, I’ll be speaking Wednesday March 27 at AIGA Nashville. Come hear (and see) me share the one single thing (and the many other things) I’ve done over my creative career.

I hate to sound unexcited about the New Year but I’ll be honest, January came and went with no big news or unusual events. I do like the energy the New Year brings—clients wanting to push some things creatively, renewed enthusiasm and focus, and a general sense of starting with a clean slate. Highs for [...]

I’m a little behind in updating my blog with tearsheets from our recent shoots…that being said, here are samples from a not-so-recent food photography session for Diabetes Forecast with food styling by Nashville based food stylist Whitney Kemp. This particular theme featured gluten-free recipes for pizza and carrot muffins. Being someone that tries to eat [...]
December was full of fun with lots of time to enjoy my family, my friends and even myself—I may have enjoyed a few too many sweets though. Here are a few of the highlights. December Highs How about baking to my heart’s content? Yes sir! From cinnamon rolls to peppernuts. Peppernuts? They are these fun [...]
