Pointe Magazine needed some shots pronto for a new advertiser, Dylan's Raw Bar in Grosse Pointe. We had three new dishes, some interior views and a portrait of Chef Derrick Collins to do. It was 11am and the final images had to be uploaded to the graphics people by 4pm.
So I set to it, thanking heaven for radio-controlled flash triggers and digital cameras so I could dial in a lighting setup quickly (and without an assistant too). I was also thankful for years of work in fast-paced product photography studios and for years in a premier food photography studio in New York city.
And it all turned out very well. I am pleased with the results and the Dylan's folks are loving it too. Let's hope that the ad pulls in new diners who no doubt will be ecstatic about the great food and great atmosphere at Dylan's in Grosse Pointe.
