They’ve made some changes to the look of the exterior and interior, plus have added a lunch menu, indian buffet style. Here’s a few shots I took of the interior – it was pouring outside so there wasn’t much […]

I’ve shot Chef Matt’s food before, but he’s got some new menu items at Kaama Lounge so I was obliged to do my thing! Kaama’s menu is motivated by “childhood comfort food with a gourmet twist” – and they’ve certainly made a splash in the foodie scene with a number of entrees and appetizers motivated […]

I always have a tough time shooting the interiors of really dark places – not that’s it’s a technical challenge, it’s just that it’s so easy to bring out details that you really don’t want to see in a dark place. For example, when someone paints their ceiling black, it’s because there’s nothing up there […]

In my last post, I showed some select shots from the first shoot with Matt Mermod, the Executive Chef at soon-to-be-open Kaama Lounge in San Jose.
