Food Photography for Kirstie’s Kitchens in Bath

Kirstie’s Kitchen has been producing high quality home made curries in the Bath area for some time and she wanted to update her website with some new images. These were to be documentary style showing the preparation and cooking one of her delicious curries. When I arrived at 10am the air was already full of the smell of exotic herbs and spices and the sound of chopping of fresh ingredients. For two hours the kitchen was a whirlwind of chillies, flashes, coriander, tripods, chickpeas and lens caps. By noon both the curry and photography were finished and we reviewed the images over some dhal and a glass of Cava.

‘I scream for ice cream!’ PR food photography for Bath based ice cream company

Ice Cream Events in Bath needed some PR photography taken at a historic World War 2 re-enactment event at a local National Trust property. The company markets itself as a vintage brand and they wanted the pictures to capture the atmosphere of the event placing their ‘product’ as an incidental in the pictures rather than a dominant component. The shots had to capture the general atmosphere without placing the business were used for social networking and their website though some of the images have been used for general public relations uses. The also sell very good ice cream.

Filming Food – Sgroppino

I have taken quite a few photographs for Marshfield Ice Cream but they recently asked me if I would like to have a go at doing some filming for them. Until a month or so ago I hadn’t realised my stills camera could shoot video so I have had a lot to learn. I still have a lot to learn but this is my first attempt.
