Over the summer I joined the millions who started making sourdough bread. I made the starter with my children. They loved watching it change, become bubbly and begin to smell. They even named our starter: Starter Steve. 

With it we’ve made, chocolate cake, sweet rolls, sandwich bread, crackers and of course a classic sourdough loaf. 

I recently did some spec work for Bibigo wontons. I wanted to highlight the architectural aspect of the wontons and bring out the greens in the filling.  It was unlike any work I’ve done previously, but I really enjoyed stretching that creative muscle and coming up with something different. 

Have food photography needs? I would love to speak with you more about your project. Click here and we can get the process started. I’ve been working with companies during the pandemic doing completely socially distanced shoots. 

I got to style and shoot this fun holiday appetizers shoot. This past Christmas season was different from usual, but we could still indulge in some of our favorite goodies with those closest to us to celebrate the season. 

I hope that you have a lovely holiday and that 2021 sorts itself out. Here’s to better days ahead!

Here is a recent personal project. I loved tapioca as a kid. It was one of my favorite desserts. My mom used to make it from that Kraft minute tapioca pudding mix. I tried this with Reese’s Specialty Foods large tapioca. Isn’t it fun paired with the star fruit? (Confession: this was my first time trying star fruit. It made me really want to take a trip to Indonesia and try it fresh. I can imagine it’s loads better at the source.)

I loved the texture of the large tapioca pearls. Now I’ll have to used the rest to make some Bubble Tea. I’ll be sure to share the results.

I’ve been doing a lot of remote work the last several months as many others have. It has become the new norm and I’m really enjoying it. 

This work is from several months ago and I’m just getting around to publishing it. 

I still struggle with peeling hard boiled eggs, but glad I got these ones to come out alright. There might not be an appetizer more delicious than deviled eggs. Go ahead, try to think of one. I’ll wait. Also, does any one else eat breakfast burritos almost daily? No? Me neither.
