Food Photography Durham NC

This week we had a great time visiting and photographing the new dining facility at Duke's East campus. Its a fantastic facility and the renovations they have made will provide students with an array of food.

From Scallops to fillet Mignon, rotisserie chicken and wood fired pizza, an extensive salad bar and there's even an Asian station serving up dumplings and buns. Executive Chef, Jody Mcleod and the team have some really exciting and mouth watering offerings for the lucky students.

Below is just a quick sample of the food that we photographed, but if your astudent at Dule, them your in for a real treat.

Last week we spent an afternoon over at Rey's restaurant in Cary NC photographing the food for the restaurant's new website. Rey's Restaurant was founded in 2004 and is a steakhouse with a New Orleans, French-Quarter twist. Head chef and owner A. Rey Arias and his staff do an excellent job with dishes ranging from pan seared scallops to Bone-in Rib-eye. And if the mood takes you they do a terrific chicken and sausage gumbo. We had the pleasure of sampling all of the food, as well as photographing it, and it was excellent, I'll certainly be going back there.

Here are some of the photos we took......

Real Estate Photography Raleigh

A beautiful new apartment community has been built in downtown Raleigh on Wilmington Street. Its called Elan City Center and is managed by Greystar, a company known for their quality properties. We were asked to go and shoot it prior to their residents moving in. We love doing architecture photography so this project was a really nice one to get. We do a lot of building photography in Raleigh and it appears that there are a lot of these new communities sprouting up especially downtown. Here are some of the images, but if you are looking for a really nice apartment in downtown Raleigh, you should go and check it out.

Food Photography Cary NC

As I have often written, one of my favorite things to photograph is food. So I was really excited when one of my favorite restaurants asked me to come in and photograph their food.

"An", which means "to dine" in Vietnamese, is an amazing restaurant. The restaurant showcases the flavors of Asian food with those of modern European. The Culinary Director is Steven Deveraux Greene who is also the Executive Chef of the AA "Five Diamond" award winning restaurant Heron's, at The Umstead Hotel and Spa - another of my favorites. Chef de Cuisine at An restaurant is Joshua Hughes and he and Steven have worked together for ten years.

For this photo shoot we really wanted to highlight the produce which is all sourced locally- some of which is actually grown on their own farm. Hope you enjoy the photos:
