Book photography

I had the honor of working with two famous authors – Lauren Toyota from Hot for Food, and Yolanda Gampp from How to Cake It to assist with art direction and photography for their incredible culinary books.

Hot for Food

by Lauren Toyota

In “Hot for Food All Day” Lauren gathers her easiest recipes, perfect for those speedy weeknight dinners, breezy workday lunches, and oh-so-satisfying breakfasts. With over 120 mouthwatering recipes packed inside, it's a culinary treasure trove. Lauren and I teamed up to sprinkle some photo magic on every single dish featured in the book. I had the pleasure of assisting Lauren in crafting the perfect visual style for her recipies, applying my styling and photography skills to make each page a feast for the eyes.

Layer UP!

by Yolanda Gampp

In this ultimate glow-up guide for cakes, “How to Cake It” star Yolanda Gampp plays with flavor profiles and shares twenty-one 'stuffed-cake' recipes (plus seventy-two delicious stand-alone desserts, toppings, and buttercreams) to level up anyone’s cake game and prove that it really is what’s inside that counts. I had the pleasure of working with Yolanda and the crew to style and photograph every image in the book – from big spreads to close-ups and textures to Yolanda’s portraits.
