Food Photography Raleigh NC

We had a great time this week photographing food for our clients Donovan's Dish. Donovan's Dish is an upscale catering company who offer fantastic food for weddings and other events in North Carolina. Chef TJ has come up with some beautiful recipes for their upcoming holiday menu and we were really pleased when they asked us to shoot it for them. Here are some examples of what will be on offer:

Baby Back Rib Meat Spring Rolls, flash fried, Cheerwine reduction

The Evolution OF Barbecue - Food Photography Cary

We were really pleased to be asked to photograph the menu items for Smithfield's Chicken 'N Barbecue. One of their many offerings is a whole shoulder of Pork which they will cook for you and you can pick it up take it home and break it up. So we decided to do a photo as soon as it came out from being cooked. We worked on this Project with French West & Vaughan PR Agency and food stylist Teresa Chelko. As well as shooting the whole shoulder we decided it would be a good idea to show visitors to their website what goes into the fantastic barbecue that is sold in their restaurants. Hence we came up with the idea of showing the finished barbecue and all the elements made to produce it.

Hope you like the photos.

Architecture Photography Raleigh

I was recently asked to photograph a Walgreen's store that had just opened outside Raleigh. As well as the usual daytime photos i thought it would be interesting to shoot one or two at dusk. Below is the shot that I ended up with and which the client really enjoyed.





Editorial Photography Raleigh

We've been really ramping up our editorial photography lately and are being featured in many publications. One of our favorites is Attorney At Law in which so many of our law clients are featured. We were once again asked to photograph the cover shot along with a number of spreads in the magazine. This cover features Joseph Cheshire a most eminent member of the North Carolina legal community.
