I had some left over Whisps from a shoot I did recently mixed with some spare time while my daughter was at Kindergarten. So I threw a set together, whipped out the Whisps and made some magic. I love how these turned out. 

If you’re looking for some fun and playful imagery for your products, get in touch. I’d love to talk with you about your photo needs. 

A while back I bought a mint plant… and I didn’t really know what to do with all those mint leaves. I stumbled across making mint water and I have loved doing that ever since. I typically don’t put the cucumber in it, but I love the way that cucumber ribbons look. They’re probably my favorite thing to photograph. 

The bounty of summer will soon be coming to a close. It’s crazy how quickly that goes by. We wait patiently for those tomatoes, berries, cucumbers, and squash to arrive and they’re gone too soon. 

I recently had some black berries lying around and they needing a head shot. So I obliged and also gave them a nice close up as well. Food photographers still play with their food in all the best ways. 

We had some flowers hanging around so my cute daughter thought we should take some pictures of them too. Here’s what we came up with: 

If you have any up coming projects I would love to speak with you about your photo needs. Click here and let’s start the process. 

“First you take a graham. Then you stick the chocolate on the graham. And then you roast the mallow. And when the mallows flaming you stick it on the chocolate. Then you cover it with the other graham. And then you stuff it.” -Ham from The Sandlot

One of my very favorite things to do during the summer is to roast marshmallows. No, I don’t even have to eat them. I could sit around a camp fire on a summer evening and roast an entire bag of mallows and I’d be perfectly content. When I roast a mallow I’m methodical and slow about it. I don’t dive it into the flames and let it get charred. I take my time. It’s my own personal challenge to get it perfectly golden all the way around and warm and gooey in the center without it falling off the stick and into the fire. What is your marshmallow roasting personality?

And yes, it was fun roasting several marshmallows for this shoot. Maybe I can try to incorporate roasted marshmallows into every shoot? No? Dang. 

I love a good orange juice. Fresh squeezed, no contest. I love simplicity and minimalism… honestly there is like nothing on my walls (maybe that is partially due to indecision). For me, breakfast should involve eggs, sometimes bacon, on special occasions, a hollandaise. Those savory breakfasts always pair well with a little OJ. Here’s my visual ode to the humble orange juice.
