In a land far far away (San Francisco) and long ago (6 years!) I wanted to photograph food. Some of you may know the beginning story of it all, if not… here goes!
I went to photography school having NO IDEA what I wanted to do. The nice thing about where I went to school is the very first year is a mish mash of subjects to whet your pallet of the world of photography. I was a year into school and still had no idea what I wanted to do. Until 311… the commercial advertising class. Every week we had a different assignment: photograph an accessory, shoot a model, car, and then one week it was food. My work was noticeably different then everyone else’s… in a good way. My best friend Kim told me after class that I had found what I should do… I should be a food photographer. And that was that. I was THAT mold-able! That was the plan. I was going to be a food photographer.
Fast forward a few years: I was working for a food photographer in SF. It just wasnt working for me… food photography wasnt very sociable and it was a big production for just a few shots a day. Hours on ONE photo. While I LOVED food photography and appreciate everything that goes into a shot… I just needed something more. And thats how Adeline & Grace was started. But more on that in another post.
So now I get my food photography “fix” at weddings. Guests look at me like Im crazy for photographing the food but I kindly explain that the couple will have no remembrance of eating itThat usually works!
So when Jennifer of Tastefull Bites (website coming soon, now that there are photos!) asked me to photograph some cupcakes for her new business I was happy to oblige! If you are my friend on facebook you know that I have a soft spot for cupcakes. Well anything sugar really but a huge soft spot for cupcakes. So of course I tasted all of these. YUM! Whats so different about Jenn’s mini cupcakes is they are savory and sweet and filled.
So if you are looking for something sweet for your holiday party just ask me for her contact info!
I think the pan series is my fav…
