As a food photographer, you don’t often get to eat the food. It gets cold, it’s not fully cooked, or you’re just too busy shooting and trying to get to your next gig. As a non-motorist, I’m always trying to keep my load light, and put as few things in my hands as possible when I travel, so when I am asked by a restaurant if I want to take something to go, I always want to answer “yes” but I am often burdened with having to bring the food and all my gear with me, and if I’m going to another shoot, I feel it would be uncouth to present myself with a doggie bag. Nevertheless, the stars aligned at this shoot where I was able to try the food, and take some home, and it was delicious. This shoot was assigned by Eater and you can view more and read more about this wonderful restaurant here. Here are some shots that didn’t make it to the website, and some that did:
