Celebrity Chef Portrait

Gordon Ramsey Fish and Chips in Times Square

Photographing a celebrity chef in Times Square was an unforgettable experience! The energy of the city combined with the excitement of working with someone so well-known in the culinary world created the perfect backdrop for a dynamic shoot. Capturing the chef in the midst of such a vibrant, bustling location brought a unique contrast between the calm focus of their craft and the liveliness of New York City. From the lights of Times Square to the chef’s passion for food, it was an amazing opportunity to capture some truly memorable shots. If you’re looking for someone to photograph culinary events or chefs in action, I’d love to help bring those moments to life!

City Harvest are just good people, my favorite client and an organization I'm proud to work for. Last night was their big spring party at Cipriani's in midtown New York City.

Portrait of Geoffrey Zakarian for City Harvest

I'm so glad we rescheduled this shoot for after the snow storm that happened a couple of weeks ago. It was still freezing cold but the photos don't show that. Geoffrey Zakarian was super to work with and being able to photograph an Iron Chef and Food Network celebrity is like winning the Super Bowl for me.
