Jane, stop this crazy thing!

I suppose there are days on set with me that might feel a little like an episode of the Jetson’s – crazy contraptions, space-age technology … and me getting a little out of control (in a fun way).

I say all this because looking at this production shot from a recent food shoot looks a bit out of control. Looking at how I lit this vintage hand mixer makes me wonder “Really? Did I really use all these reflectors and flags to get this shot?”

It was worth it – I’m very happy with the final images. Everything cooperated … the mixer suspended precariously in mid-air, the lighting bouncing from every which angle and the hero chocolate holding on for dear life.

This one will be going into the portfolio.

Espresso Shot

What you see here in this one espresso shot is an espresso shot and three chocolate espresso cookies. So I guess that means this is a shot of four espresso shots … one way or another.

Day Nineteen – Photo a Day

I’m allowing myself a little grace from this assignment today. While I didn’t actually shoot this today, I did process it today. This is from my Friday shoot with Aux Choux. I love the imperfections of this photo as I was shooting hand-held through a glass in the display case.
