Food for Thought
My whole life has revolved around food and the many ways it intertwines within our lives. From cooking the family meals growing up to running a bakery and my own catering business, working with food has been the single constant passion throughout my life. So much so that I started my own blog to share my food-focused adventures and memories and was a Founding Board Member of the Austin Food Blogger Alliance...
Behind the Scenes
Fast-Forward to January 2009 and I found myself as the production assistant to the on-air talent for the eight Austin-based episodes of Discovery/TLC's Home Made Simple. Preparing the numerous steps of each recipe and shopping for television-quality ingredients was a great training ground for what was next...
Dream Job
So that brings me to today. Little did I know that my experiences would lead to this. As a commercial food stylist, I get to work with photographers, chefs, agencies, and marketing teams to create finished work that best showcases their creations in print, digital and video formats, and it's the perfect place for me.
See My WorkFood Styling? It's What I Do
Yes! Food styling is one of those things that you don't think about. Whether it's in a video or the main subject of a photograph, the way food looks to the camera may be completely different than how it looked when it was first plated. That's where I can help. Whether it's simply arranging the plate or creating the perfect "hero", I work with the client, photographer, and production team to understand and deliver on the requirements of each shot. From the way that food appears on-screen or in print to its historical-accuracy in a time-based setting, a commercial food-stylist is often the person responsible for the details that either tell or complete the story.
