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.

The Fun of Shooting Food

Well, I feel I have to kind of apologize for not having more frequent entries into my blog. Truth be known, I’m finding that I’d rather spend my time shooting then blogging. I suppose there’s probably a balance. But for now, I’m going to lean toward shooting and let the blogging take second chair.

This is a shot I began yesterday and completed today. I’m certainly enjoying what I do and only hope for more of it. Maybe then I’ll have more reason to blog.

Look for more soon.

Food Revamp …

Well, I’m in the process of revamping my site … one section at a time. I’ve just completed the food photography section. While many of the images are the same as the previous version you will notice I’ve increased the sizes … the bigger the image the better. I’ve also changed the groupings to be more reflective of the job/project.

Food Photography

Stay tuned as I work through the remaining sections (and possibly a new section) over the coming weeks.

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.

Day Seventeen - Photo a Day

Today was a fun one. I shot a number of specialty desserts for Aux Choux, a dessert café in Franklin, TN. Crystal is a fine dessert maker and super to work with. Here is one of the many fun shots from the shoot.

Look for more shots from this shoot in a later blog post.

Day Sixteen - Photo a Day

Today I was on assignment for a cookbook. This is one shot that stands out as I’m only midway through first edits.

The secret ingredient.

Cookie Monster

There’s nothing like ending a photo shoot and getting to eat the props. Brooke Trusley is currently in the process of starting a bakery here in Franklin, Tennessee. I sure love shooting (and eating) food.

What next? I plan on getting on the short list for her R&D. This recipe gets a thumbs up from me!
