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.

    As my work gains momentum sometimes it’s interesting enough to get an interview. So far all have been with bigger outlets; a work of mine was on the Martha Stewart Show last year, this year the Houston Chronicle picked up one of my creations, and...

    Did you miss me? Did you notice I was gone? No? Well that’s good I suppose. My computer kicked the bucket for the last time and refused to be rebuilt again. Jesse had had enough of my computer abuse, and replaced my laptop with a Mac-top hoping...

  • Deep Fry That Turkey!

    I love to deep fry things. I think this goes back to my first real job. Real meaning when I wasn’t paid in peanuts for picking strawberries, or placing flyers on car windshields before the “working age” of sixteen. Slaving away at McDonald's an...

    Ree Drummond’s book finally made it to our bookstore! I was so excited I grabbed it and ran to the checkout all the while stuffing my nose in it even as I walked to my car. I stayed up late into the night enjoying every single page. About 2A.M. I h...

  • 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...
