I constantly ask myself this question when shooting food photography: "How on earth can food be so darn gorgeous?" Here's how — so much of it has to do with the chef behind it, and Tara of Dandelion Catering is an absolute magician when it comes to her food's beauty and taste. Both are divine! We had such a great time during Dandelion Catering's spring food photography in Missoula Montana, and we even got to create some business branding imagery, too. Dandelion Catering's space is cozy, light, and bright, and immediately inviting. And for good reason — you will 100% want to hang out a while and let the delicious aromas waft over you as you ...
Bite-sized sweets :: Whitefish Montana food photography
It's no secret that I absolutely love food photography, and getting to document beautiful baked goods for a Whitefish Montana food photography branding shoot was every bit as delightful as I expected it would be. The sweet treats I photographed were "bite-sized sweets to celebrate with," and feature lavish, spirit-infused sweets. In fact, the cupcakes are inspired by cocktails!

Lots of greens and jewel tones emphasized the standout quality of the baked goods created for the ...

Our shoot day rolled around, and thankfully we were set to shoot in the morning, because Missoula was in the process of being plagued by a ridiculously long stretch of 90+ degree temps. And, if you've ever cooked in hot weather before, you'll understand why we were hoping beyond hope that Tara and her team would be treated to a day that wasn't roasting ...
The Tupelo Grille :: Restaurant Food Photography in Whitefish Montana
Here's a little tidbit about me you may not know...I love food. Like lo-o-OOOVE it. I love making it. I love devouring it. I love sharing it with others. (In fact, I have my own food blog, albeit a sorely neglected one because I seriously need something like 89 hours in the day to do everything I'd like to do.) BUT. Something I may love just as much as all these things put together and maybe even MORE (did I just admit to that?!), is photographing it. Food is pretty, folks. Hella pretty. So when Paul, the manager at The Tupelo Grille called me up to talk to me about doing some restaurant food photography in Whitefish Montana for their brand ...
