Table of Spreads - Honey, Chocolate, Jams

Culture Magazine

Pairings

Creative Direction: For their annual pairings issue, I worked with the magazine’s editor and outside design firm Red Herring to capture different cheese pairings, including jam, wine, honey—and, yes, donuts!

Donuts and cheese might not seem like natural partners, but the editorial team from Culture magazine celebrated this unexpected (and unexpectedly delicious!) combination. We also shot a layout that featured hand lettering created with honey. I love working with clients who are passionate about what they do, and the Culture team are such enthusiastic collaborators.

Culture Magazine Spreadable Cheese Chevre Camembert Cream Cheese

Culture Magazine

Creative Direction: How do you make a wedge of cheese look interesting? It’s all about design and propping—and about working with an experienced cheesemonger who knows how to bring out each cheese’s visual best. The design team at Culture Magazine envisioned a comic book-like graphic style for their Best Cheeses of the Year special issue. I worked closely with the magazine’s art director to anticipate the layout needs and to shoot each cheese—about 100 in all—to support the design.

Jars of Yogurt with Peaches

Culture Magazine:

Yogurt

Creative Direction: Culture Magazine stepped away from cheese—their usual subject—to spotlight the new trend in specialty yogurts, from Icelandic to Greek to French.

The yogurts were shot against simple backgrounds to provide a bold pop of color. Use of strong lighting allowed the production of sharp shadows, further adding to the pop-art look of these images.

Rainbow Sprinkles

Rachael Ray

Creative Direction: This was a fantastic collaboration with the creative team from the Every Day with Rachael Ray magazine. We shot a series of full-page images for the magazine’s “On Our Radar” section featuring different types of holiday decor for cookies, cakes, and chocolates. We played around with different shapes and colors of sprinkles, styling each to accommodate headline type.

For a feature on homemade bark-style chocolate candy, we styled an assortment of recipes featuring unusual ingredient combinations. Working with the magazine’s editorial and visual team, as well as their super creative test kitchen crew, was a blast.
