Ah, lovely food photography. Everyone seems to think it’s the toughest thing to shoot – but those people clearly haven’t tried photographing small children at the beach who want to look at anything but the camera. Food is so well behaved, I just want to eat it up. And I do. Regularly. Just another side benefit […]

“They” say food is the hardest thing to shoot. Well I guess “they” never had to deal with screaming toddlers and stressed out parents during a photo session!

Happy Valentine’s Day everyone! If you’re looking for something a little different for your sweetie this year (especially if she’s a foodie), try serving her flowers instead of merely delivering them! I don’t recommend frolicking in the nearest field, picking flowers with wild abandon and hoping they’ll all be delectable – best to leave it […]
