...fotografía de comida...

last fall i assisted the very lovely and incredibly talented hélène dujardin during a food photography workshop she lead in los angeles. i've often enjoyed photographing food for fun, usually when i have baked something and am allowed time to slow down and make a photo rather than my usual chaotic running around in the kitchen. during the past year i have wanted to develop a better sense of how to photograph food, so when the opportunity came to assist helene, i was overjoyed!

since the workshop, i haven't had much time to focus on food photography, but last week my sister-in-law jessica, who sells delicious baked goods at spice of life sweets, needed some new photos for her spring/summer offerings. the difference in my photographs from before and after the workshop are drastic. as soon as i was finished photographing jessica's baked goods, i sent a happy text to helene telling her how obvious it was that i had learned much at the workshop. thanks again, hélène!! looking forward to more fun with food in the future!
