Photographing Food and Beverage for Bluestone Lane

The past couple of days I have been photographing food for the new app that Bluestone Lane will be launching in the coming weeks. Although a lot of the concept was to shoot uniform images of all food and beverages, there is always an opportunity to capture some subtlety. Although I’m not a full time food photographer, I really enjoy capturing content for clients who work in the food industry.

And here’s a behind the scenes of the setup for both days of shooting food.


NY Times Photograph

Of all the press events I have ever covered the one I shot in Tarrytown at the IBM office with Jeopardy and Watson has got by far the most use in the press. Unfortunatel for IBM who hosted the event and probably spent considerable money building the Jeopardy set, the photos of “Watson” didn’t run anywhere nearly as much as the photos of Alex Trebek and the Jeopardy contestants.
