I have been given an assignment to photograph the past high priests of the local Royal Arch chapter. It’s a particularly interesting assignment, as I get to meet a lot of the senior members of this esteemed order as I do so. Getting to hear stories of times gone by and names of others who have passed this way before me is quite inspiring. So far I have three done but more are on the way, slowly but surely.

If you have been paying attention, you know that I have been doing a lot of candy photography in the past many months for the National Confectioners Association. Here is a truffle brought back for me from a chocolate show by a wonderful coworker. It is a Lillie Belle Farms smoked blue cheese truffle with hazelnut bits on the outside. At least I think it was hazelnut. I can’t remember because it got eaten too quickly!

This lion was in front of the Art Institute of Chicago. The mid tones in concrete offer great texture against the overcast sky and made this a fun one to turn B&W.

This salmon was cooked with cocoa nibs, served on a bed of sauteed onions and leeks and dusted lightly with cocoa powder. I have been a vegetarian for a long time but this really looked good and part of me wanted to taste it as I photographed it.

The dish was artfully made by legendary chef Jacques Torres. He does wonders with chocolate. Jacques and his food were a lot of fun to photograph.

The galleries are back, in case you did not notice. I put in a new method of displaying my images and I really like it. I hope you do as well. Images will be added on an ongoing basis, so please check back now and then.

I was assigned to do a composite photo that will be used for a Web banner. Rather, some portion of it will be used. It had to incorporate candy, chocolate and gum. What do you think?

Yes, the galleries really are not working right now. I am switching away from clunky, complaicated software and will shortly have something online that looks better, acts more friendly to all and overall will be an improvement. Thanks for watching and keep checking back!
