Icons of the Southwest
Nothing says you have arrived in the southwest quite like a brilliant red chile ristra hanging in the sun in front of an adobe wall.
Friday Night in the Diner
I took this photo of the counter while having dinner in the Owl Cafe in Albuquerque. They have a great green chile cheeseburger that I keep going back for whenever I’m in town.
Job Perks
This little setup was part of a shoot I did on Saturday. The nice thing about it was that after I shot it I got to have it for my lunch.
It’s Pizza Time
Another image from my archives. Just one of the countless random shots that I tend to make whenever I’m out and about with a camera at hand.
Finally Took a Day Off and Only Made Phone Pics
For the first time in months I took a day off and didn’t work on something for someone else. I took it easy and left the real cameras alone but I still couldn’t stop myself from taking pictures. I used my phone to snap a few shots while I was grilling my cheese-stuffed burgers and spiral-cut hot dogs.
A Rare Treat
Being the nightowl that I am midnight snacks are a regular part of my epicurean repertoire however breakfast is decidedly not. By the time I typically wake up it’s certainly not being served anywhere.
Don’t Forget the Dessert
This is a sample from the dessert station that we had setup for high-key shooting at the food photography workshop this weekend.
Food Photography
I taught a food photography workshop this weekend and this was one of the many setups that we put together for students to photograph. I actually didn’t photograph anything until after the class was over so by the time I took this image the burger was about 5 hours old and had been manhandled and rearranged at least a dozen times by the students. Considering its age plus the wear and tear the burger still still looked fairly appetizing by the time I got around to pointing a camera at it.
