Here are a few favorite images shot for Scheid Family Wines, with 2 of their wine brands, Very Dark Red and Stoke’s Ghost. Our team had a lot of fun collaborating on the moodboard and art direction. The idea was to make the brands come alive with pours, swirls, light, and food. I really enjoyed working on the pairing that shows how VDR matches so well with steak or chocolate.
I am a food, beverage, and CPG product photographer specializing in photos, stop motion, and video, with over 250,000 visuals delivered worldwide. Based in Southern California and formerly in the San Francisco Bay Area, I work in my studio, throughout California, and on location nationwide. Clients hire me for my eye, creative direction, and passion for taking their idea to the next level.
My strength lies in a nimble and lean creative process. Clients love getting creative content at a reasonable cost since my studio can art direct, style, and shoot their images quickly and on budget. My studio features an extensive surface library and prop house with a fully equipped kitchen and two shooting studios.
I bring over 20 years of professional culinary experience and more than a decade in commercial photography. My work as a chef, stylist, and photographer has earned many awards, including APA Top 100, ACF Gold Medal, and a juried fine art photo exhibit at Art Basel Miami. I was Executive Pastry Chef for two Hyatt Hotels and Resorts before completing two post-baccalaureate certificates for Visual Art and Graphic Design at U.C. Berkeley Extension in San Francisco.
