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. 

Hi there. We’re in the thick of summer heat and what could be better than ice cream. It’s really too bad that I can’t hand you a cone through the screen, Willy Wonka style. 

I took these a while ago and realized, true to form, that I never posted them. I shot them for a local ice cream and dessert shop. It was such a fun challenge to undertake as ice cream is such a tricky subject (what with it melting and all). Planning and working fast is a must (and a nice body double while you get the shot right). 

School just started, but temperatures are still hitting the triple digits. So there’s plenty of reasons to makes this refreshing and cooling frozen drink. 

I shot this a while back for a beverage photography challenge on instagram a while back. I’ve been spending most of my time with savory food lately, it was fun to dip my toe into something totally different. 

Ingredients:

• 3 cups frozen, seedless watermelon
  
• 1 cup pink grapefruit Schweppes, or your favorite sparkling soda, or sparkling wine, chilled
  
• Pinch of salt
• Additional Schweppes
• watermelon slices for garnish

Process:

• Process frozen watermelon, Schweppes, and salt in a blender until smooth
  
• Pour mixture into glasses. Top off with additional soda. Garnish with watermelon slices if desired.

Hi there. I have been totally MIA as of late. I’m wrapping up a big project that I was working on for several weeks. I can’t share that with you just yet, but I’m really excited to be able to share the images with you when I’m able.

In the meantime, I have a recipe to share with you today. Loaded Ranch Twice Baked Potatoes. What I love about these is that there is flavor all the way through. In. Every. Bite. Bonus, you could make them ahead of time, saving the second bake for just before you’re ready to serve them, making them perfect for a dinner party or a busier day. 

Recipe:

6 baking potatoes

3 tablespoons olive oil

Salt and Pepper

6 pieces of bacon

1  stick butter, cut into 1 tablespoon pieces

1 cup ranch dressing

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, divided

2 green onions, sliced thin

1/2 cup milk

salt and pepper

Process:

• Preheat oven to 400˙
  
• Place potatoes on a baking sheet, rub with oil and salt and pepper. Bake until sufficiently baked through, about an hour.
• While potatoes bake, cook bacon until crisp. Crumble into pieces.
• When potatoes are done baking, remove from oven and let cool 5 minutes. 
• Lower oven temperature to 350˙
• With a sharp knife, slice the top 1/2 inch off each potato. Carefully scoop out flesh with a spoon and place in a mixing bowl. Add butter, 1/2 of bacon, ranch dressing, 3/4 cups of cheddar, green onions, milk, and salt and pepper to taste and combine, being carefully not to over mix. 
• Spoon mixture back into potato shells
• Top with remaining cheddar and bacon pieces
• Pop back in the oven until warm through and cheese is melted and bubbly about 15-20 minutes

A little while back I started photographing for Wild Coyote Foods. They make delicious salad dressings and salsas. I create a few images for them a month showcasing their dressings in various recipes. 

Here’s a few images I created for them back in February.

I love content creation for brands. I really get to know and understand a brand by these continuing relationships. I can do these remotely as I do for Wild Coyote Foods. Remote shooting allows me to focus on the content and the client to run their business without a worry. I discuss the shot list in detail before the shoot and get any questions answered in advance. It’s a hassle free way to work, especially during quarantine. 

If your brand is in need of content creation I’d love to speak with you. Drop me a line and let’s start the process today.
