The Cooking Photographer
http://www.thecookingphotographer.com/
In a past life I was a professional photographer, trained cook, and disorganized reluctant writer. Now, in my new life as a stay at home mom I’m documenting the food I make to keep my skills and sanity in check. And for better or worse, my friends, family, and dog are my personal guinea pigs for recipe testing. So far no one has died from food poisoning, although they often protest they eat too many vegetables.
Long term, my aspiration is this work will move on to live life as a series of books, and that I’ll once again find a creative career with real live adults.

Fresh Strawberry Cupcakes or Any Berry Cupcakes
Baking and cooking in season is all the rage. This always makes me shake my head because as far North as I live we’ve always eaten seasonally. Maybe it’s different in a city where they have access to more variety. However, eating locally in the w...
