Whilst in Southern Thailand, we went to Phi Phi Island and Railing. Both beautiful Islands that you could only get to by boat. Here are a few of my favorite food photographs from our journey:
Southern Thailand
China Town, Bangkok
China town, now that was an experience! It was just streets upon streets of food sellers trying to get your attention. They sold dried food, fish, duck and fruit. Here are some of my favorites:
Bangkok Street food
Whilst in Bangkok on Holiday, I decided to have an evening where I went around Khao San Road photographing all the street food. Here are some of my favorites:
Khao Sok National Park
Whilst on holiday in Thailand, we had a cooking lesson as part of our two day safari package. We started off by learning how to prepare one of the main ingredients in Thai food- Coconut milk.
Yalla Yalla
Today I went to a restaurant just off Oxford Street called 'Yalla Yalla'. This is a new branch of the company that only just opened before Christmas. It is a large and spacious restaurant, but this doesn't compromise on the little details making eating here a joyful experience.
Heston’s Restaurant- Dinner
Today I was lucky enough to go and photograph food at Heston Blumental's restaurant in Knightsbridge for 'Eat Me' Magazine. I arrived at the venue nice and early as I am always worried about been late! Heston's restaurant- Dinner, is actually situated inside the Mandarin Oriental Hotel and has only been open for one month. It seemed like a popular restaurant as there are 55 chefs that work there and the venue can seat 140 people!!!
Puji Puji
Today I ventured to East London to take some photographs for a 'Eat Me' food review. The restaurant I went to is called Puji Puji and it's in Dalston. It was about a ten minute walk from the tube, but it was worth the walk. It is a small restaurant serving Malaysian food.
Meat Easy
Today I went to a burger restaurant in New Cross called 'Meat Easy' for 'Eat Me' magazine. I arrived outside a pub in New Cross looking for the restaurant. After triple checking the address I realized the restaurant is actually above the pub. The restaurant definitely had character and the staff were so lovely. They couldn't do enough to make sure I was ok. Here's a few of my shots of the restaurant:
Published work
My work has just been published in 'Eatme-Issue 4'.
This Issue is packed full of fun stuff- An interview with Heston Blumenthal, Eat This- London food guide, The book review for cooks, and Beer in the community. It's definitely worth a read!....
More food tests
During the Christmas break I decided to take a few more photos for my portfolio. I decided to experiment with some high-key, back lit food photography. My brief was to keep the actual items I wanted to photograph quite simple, as I wanted to experiment with some macro photography, so the detail was more important to me than the actual setting.....
