It’s always a joy to work with the fine folks at the University of Arkansas’s Center for Arkansas Farms and Food. (CAFF). The University’s continued support of educating both college aged students as well as interested adults on the fundamentals of farming, is noteworthy and commendable. A few times a year, we highlight certain students for their newsletter and blog. Here’s a few images from our recent visit.

Enjoy.

Today on the blog: Recent work for Ella’s Table and their new fall menu options. Located at The Inn at Carnall Hall, Ella’s has been a Fayetteville and University of Arkansas institution for some time and as the world is figuring out how to navigate a worldwide pandemic, it was nice to see people once again enjoying the restaurant. As a food photographer, I have to try and remain an impartial judge when it comes to favorite dishes. But if you were to ask my opinion as a lowly patron and customer, I’d say that the pizza has literally “got it goin on”.

You’re welcome.

Cheers, friends.

With the seasons changing and the status of restaurants slowly but surely allowing some outdoor and indoor seating, it was time an updated menu at Bar Cleeta. If their new menu looks delicious, that’s because it is; speaking from firsthand experience.

Bon Appetit, Cheers and remember to support your local restaurants.

This whole social distance thing is hard for a number of reasons. Sure, our work has slowed down but it’s also tough when you don’t get to work with the fun people you typically get to work with. For us, one such person is food stylist Ashley Henderson.

Congratulations to writers Lacey Thacker and Sara Mitchell on the launch of their brand new book, Rooted: Central Arkansas Farm & Table. We’ve had the honor and privilege for working with them along with Etalia Press on this project, meeting the wonderful farmers, chefs and creatives, hearing about their stories and their contributions, and photographing them for this book. The resulting publication was released last week to the public via a special party held (in true Rooted fashion), at an outdoor garden. Here’s a few images from the project as well as a few snapshots of the launch party. For more information or to order the book, please visit the website. Cheers!

Food and beverage photography is quickly becoming one of my favorite jobs to work on. Part of this newfound love lies in the fact that I…

I recently had the opportunity to collaborate with some talented folks who turned turned ordinary triscuits into delicious (yes, I’m speaking from experience) hors d'oeuvres. The resulting images and recipes will be appearing very soon on in-store signage in Walmart and Sam’s Club Stores across the country. Getcha some!
