Culinary Masterpiece

Bright lights, photographer, stylist, agent, product....and food. Yes, today, in our very own home, we hosted a culinary photo shoot.

I REALLY enjoy photography, but every now and then I get to take pictures of something just challenging enough to keep me very excited.

A friend and former roommate (victim?) of mine is part of a business that cans and produces food storage products. I'll get you a link to their stuff soon; they have some really amazing stuff coming down the line. He came to me for promotional photography.

Anyway, we planned it all out in advance. We had the layouts, the positions, almost everything was thought out. We figured it would take nearly 3 full hours.

5 Additional hours later, we were finally finished. But the results were well worth it...and the food was pretty good too.

The images we took were for both their can labels and their website promotions. Here we present to you (with encouragement) a selection of my favorites of both.

Update: Our very first comment on this post has reminded me to let you know that not only are the products in the bowls real food, so is all the other food, none of that photo trickery for us. (Glue instead of milk? Surely milk is still a LITTLE cheaper?)
