What a refreshing change to spend a weekend in the country! In late October, we drove to Bucks County, Pennsylvania for our 1st wedding anniversary. Hiking, dinner in quaint Lambertville, and antique store browsing in historic New Hope was the perfect retreat. Our B&B was on a farm with sheep, chicken...
It's been a couple of months since I created an Image of the Month blog post. I was married in May, and needless to say it has been busy! I’m resuming this June with this Holga photograph of an old windmill in Barbados. This photo is part of a colorful...
I had a lovely time over New Years visiting Palm Springs for the first time! It was beautiful, and so much fun. Although it was chilly, it was super-relaxing and photographically inspiring. It was so nice to be there, after having just lived through the "Snowpocalypse" back east. Chandler and I arrived...
These photographs are from my recent trip to Ashland, Kentucky where I spent Thanksgiving with Chandler and his mother, Rita. Having spent the last five years gut renovating a pre civil war log cabin (what she calls her “Ole Kentucky Home”) Rita recently retired from Philadelphia to her hometown of...
I recently had the opportunity to go back to my hometown (Montreal, Canada) to photograph some dishes prepared by Michele Mercuri, the executive chef at XO Le Restaurant, at the Hotel Le St-James, for Food Arts. I loved the experience, these chefs treat plating like it's sculpture!

I chose these images for my Image of the Month newsletter for July because they remind me of summer. On my last trip out to Long Island to photograph for Silvia Lehrer's cookbook, Savoring the Hamptons, I shot some just-picked East End peaches and blueberries. With such ease, in her...
Happy Friday! I hope you have some nice plans for the weekend. I'm in the process of revamping my food website — it's been way too long! The weddings took over for a while and now I'm craving a little Food and Art (www.FoodandArt.com) re-design! I am currently shooting for...
I love how eggs photograph, they are such pretty subjects. I thought this was an appropriate image to choose this month as we just entered Spring. This photo was made for the cookbook I am currently working on in the Hamptons. These are the ingredients used in a berry clafoutis...
I spent a lot of the month of November traveling and shooting destination weddings. (I was in the Caribbean twice in 2 weeks for work––no complaints here!) At the beginning of the month, I spent a few days in the Hamptons documenting local harvested fruits & vegetables. Now that...
