Penny De Los Santos thinks the sauce looks like a clown face....

The prop guy "supports" her for the photo shoot.
Karen Shinto, food stylist, is amazing!

I would eat those kabobs. Find it at Penny's website
here.

Last photo of the day...workshop guests will get to take turns photographing it

and after Karen did her magic..used all REAL food

Lighting is everything....that is not a tea towel drying. :)

Prepping to back light the mussels.....

Penny shoots in that small area. I love her food photography..often seen on and in
Saveur!
I loved this first shot...give emotion to your food she says..with lighting

That was the shot...but my shot of it isn't so great.


Bacon, eggs and grits. Beautiful.



This was my lunch....I tried to photograph it...needed more diffusion! That round plate was just wrong.

Practice shot....on the grits

Finding the right citrus shot....loved the knife in the shot. Penny is amazing. Her team was too...and she collaborated with them every step of the way. No Diva there.


The lady to your right cooked all day. :)


My fave shot...but I think they used a smaller plate version as "the one".

Penny and Karen Shito...food stylist.
