Cheese

Making

Creative Direction: This update of the classic home cheese making guide, by author Ricki Carroll, replaces the illustrations in the original with photos. I wanted the images to be accessible, educational, and beautiful all at the same time. We documented the different steps in the cheese making process, and showed finished cheeses and serving ideas.

daBomb Geode Bath Bombs Multicolored Fizzers

daBomb Bath

Fizzers

Creative Direction: Talk about a fun project: working with teenage entrepreneurs who just landed their product in Target stores and a book deal. I loved collaborating with sisters Isabel and Caroline and their family on a photo shoot for their upcoming book from Quarto Publishing. The book features their recipes for DIY bath bombs and beauty products. We shot the bath bombs with colorful props and with black backgrounds that reinforce daBomb’s branding and packaging. The whole shoot was full of sprinkles and glitter!

Crew: Isabel, Caroline, and their family, Quarto Art Director and Editor

Large Dish of Fresh Seafood from Cooking with Nonna

Cooking with Nonna

Creative Direction: This shoot for the cookbook Cooking with Nonna was an absolute delight, because I had the opportunity to work closely with author Rossella Rago and her grandmother. Rossella built her culinary brand via YouTube, where she shares videos of her cooking with Italian grandmothers (nonnas). Her recipes are classic Italian dishes that involve multiple steps (like making homemade pasta and preparing long-cooking sauces), so the shoot took place over six days in a private kitchen. Working with the art director, we created a homey, comfortable look using props that might have come from a nonna’s kitchen. Rossella and her family were very hands-on in preparing the dishes, which gave the shoot an authentic family atmosphere. I was thrilled that the publisher chose my portrait of Rossella and her nonna for the book’s cover.
