Food can define moments, trigger memories and build friendships. Food is nourishment, food is energy and health. Food is part of our cultural traditions, food is there for our happy moments as well as our saddest moments. Food is the perfect excuse to get together with your best friends or with family.
For me, the passion for food photography has grown from my passions for health. You see, through the years I learned to appreciate real food for its health benefits but also for the aromas and the culinary sensations that come with great food. I made it my mission to show people there is such thing as healthy food which tastes great and looks amazing.
While I always do my best to take the best photos I can, i don't like the idea of using any kind of "dirty tricks" in order to enhance the appearance of my photos. I like to keep the idea of "healthy" in close connection with the food I photograph and that's why I only use natural materials, fresh food, dishes and cutlery that you'd use in your own home. Nothing more, nothing less.
My goal is to capture that special something that every dish has to offer. I don't rely on old plates or hand painted backgrounds to do this, I simply rely on the food on the table. Through my work I let the food speak for itself.
I like to photograph food that's real, smells amazing, is fresh and healthy, is responsibly grown and prepared using only the best ingredients. At the end of the day, for me it's all about respecting the food and capturing its essence as close to real life as possible.
