WOSU Chefs in the City 2011

Open Image Studio — Thu, 28 Apr 2011 21:20:53 +0000

Each year WOSU Public Media hosts, “Chefs in the City,” an annual culinary event featuring some of Columbus’s finest Chefs and one celebrity Chef. Each Chef is invited to showcase their extraordinary cooking skills in front of a live audience. Proceeds from the event will benefit children’s educational programming on WOSU TV.

This year, I got the honor to meet and photograph master Chef, Jacques Pepin. If you’re not familiar with Chef Pepin, he is highly regarded for his classic French cuisine. Over 60 years of cooking experience and 26 books written on the subject, he is a true legend and one of the most influential Chefs in the culinary world. He’s quite witty and charming too.

This year’s Chefs:
Jacques Pepin
Jeni Britton Bauer – Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams
Richard Blondin – Refectory
Travis Hyde – Z Cucina
Hubert Seifert – Spagio
John Skaggs – Two Caterers
David Tetzloff – G. Michael’s Bistro

To view the show, tune in this Saturday, April 30, at 1pm on WOSU TV and May 1, at 4pm on WOSU PLUS

Here are some highlights from the event including the shots of the most declicious food ever, and the desert from Jeni’s … oh goodness you’ve got to try it to believe it.

Super excited to share this with all of you. Last month, I had the distinct honor of being one of the photographers shooting for the American Motorcyclist Association during their Vintage Motorcycle Days at the Mid Ohio Race Track. One of the photos taken during the event made the cover of the September issue of the American Motorcyclist Magazine. It’s been a wonderful opportunity working with AMA and having one of my photos on the cover is an incredible honor. Click Here to see more photos from the Vintage Motorcycle Days event.

A week ago I was invited to photograph the 2010 Chefs In The City event presented by WOSU Public Media. The event is in its fourth year and is an effort to raise funds that go directly toward WOSU’s educational children’s programming. It was an extreme honor to be part of such an amazing cause. This culinary-themed event included some well-known chefs in the Columbus area and the recent winner of Bravo’s Top Chef Masters and host of Mexico: One Plate at a Time, Chef Rick Bayless.

The broadcast will air tonight (Thursday, April 22, 2010) at 9:00PM EST on WOSU TV.

The American Motorcyclist . Editorial Photography

It’s been an honor and privilege working with the American Motorcyclist Association for the past couple of years photographing for their national publication. I learn so much when doing editorial work; there’s always the challenge of lighting, locations, and shooting with the publication layout in mind but it’s a great joy nonetheless. I’ve been dying to share our latest shoot from the fall and now that the publication is out I’m able to give you all a sneak peek.

The setting was a fully restored 1930’s/40’s convenient store and gas station. When we arrived at the scene I was immediately blown away. Very fitting for our subject, which happens to be a 1940 Triumph Tiger 100.

Here are a couple of images from the day and tear sheets from the magazine. The motorcross bike was shot on a farm with parts of the land converted to dirt tracks, super cool. Thanks AMA for the opportunity.

product shoot with “i can have that gift baskets”

A little over a week ago I had an incredible opportunity to work with Jane & Diane of “I Can Have That Gift Baskets.” Their business is to provide a solution for people who have sensitivity to certain food allergies. Hence, “I Can Have That Gift Baskets” was born. There are several gift baskets, which you can order directly from their website, that contain food options that are gluten free and allergen friendly items for all occasions.

Not only was it a great opportunity to photograph all the amazing products they have to offer, it was also a wonderful learning experience for me as well. For more information or to purchase some of the gift baskets, visit: www.icanhavethat.com
