Many photographers have a specific creative style that make people want to hire them...to then apply that style to their brand vision. It can often be with unique lighting, colors, styling, posing, etc. My approach to photography has a much more authentic, natural, photojournalistic focus - basically my goal is to always take photos so that they look the same as the way your eye saw something in person.

Working with Tina De Broux of Under Aurora was such a treat. Her creative product styling paired with my desire to provide balanced, hyper-realistic images was a success. We each enjoyed space to focus on our talents while the other person stepped in to do their magic.

Skincare products are usually super fun to photograph - especially when branding has a minimalist style. (My personal preference! For example, would love to shoot for The Ordinary.)

And last but not least, a very fun gif :)

Imagine Blue Apron or Hello Fresh arriving at your home with already cooked food, and all you had to do was heat it up. That's what Luxe & Lemons does here in Central Ohio! In an online account, you place your order each week, get your delivery, heat the meals, and enjoy!

I've worked with Luxe & Lemons owner, Kat Rumley, for several years now. Each shoot is in a different location, with models enjoying the food, and all of us sharing lots of laughs. :)

Our most recent shoot, however, was just for the products themselves - the gorgeous meals available to order on the website! (I was super grateful when she sent me home with a large bag full of food! Have I ever said how much I love my job?)

When visiting Zest Juice Co., my photography can be found on their digital menu boards. Working with an excellent food stylist ensured the client's needs and expectations would be met.

The first three images are their smoothies "deconstructed" to feature ingredients. The following four images are various groupings/stylings of different items - basically custom stock photography created for the company's graphic designer to use on the website, print materials, social media, and menu boards. The final three images show Zest Juice Co. has more than just smoothies and juices!
