I have merged my passion for cooking/baking & culinary photography into a unique event. You will be welcomed into an artists home dining room / working photo studio, complete with professional lighting and a table propped for beautiful photos. To start the evening, you will enjoy an Aperitif & Hors D’oeuvre. Then through the evening you will be served a three course gourmet meal, based on an International or Special Theme, featuring locally sourced seasonal fruits and vegetables. Dinner is complete with wine, appropriate to the occasion and meal. (*see sample menus below)

Culinary photography is magical and yet not beyond the reach of your smart phone.* As each course is served, you will have the time you desire to photograph your dish without pressure from other diners. I will teach you many skills to advance your culinary photographic journey. We will explore the key elements of Lighting, Shooting Angles, Depth-of-Field and culinary touches. Then, at the end of the evening, we will finesse your photos with robust, yet easy-to-learn phone app enhancements to create beautiful culinary photos you’ll be proud to share.

I recently returned from a 3 month culinary tour of Spain and Italy and have lots of great new dishes to tease your palette. A new featured item on the menu will be fresh pasta and authentic Tiramisu, a secret recipe from a Venetian Chef.
