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.

Aloft Hotels Re:fuel Breakfast Options

Re:fuel for Aloft Hotels

Creative Direction: For its boutique Aloft brand, the Marriott food and beverage team developed a line of healthy breakfast dishes in a cup that guests could order to enjoy in the hotel lounge or on the go. These Re:fuel breakfast pots are assembled to order from a selection of 13 menu options, including poached egg with avocado and quinoa, mini pancakes, and cheddar grits with chicken and egg. Working with the client and ad agency, we created eye-catching images of ingredients and finished dishes for onsite menu boards and promotions—designed to appeal to busy (and hungry!) travelers. We also captured short animated videos. Aloft’s Re:fuel program has caught on with guests and is poised to reshape food in the hospitality industry.

Solar System Galaxy

Solar System

Creative Direction: My frequent collaborator, the food stylist Kristin Stangl, had a thought: What if we used food to represent the Solar System? That question inspired our self-directed series of images. We researched each planet and the sun, using food and cooking techniques to capture characteristics like temperature, topography and atmosphere. We show the sun as a golden disc of caramelized sugar. Venus, with its volcanic landscape and average temperature of more than 800°F, is represented with a French onion soup topped with molten cheese. Earth is an arrangement of salt-baked fish and lettuces to depict its surface of water and land. We both loved researching and creating this personal project.
