Nutella Craze.

I started a project for an art class when I was going to school. The basic idea: people and food.

I ask people what they love to eat – the food that they consume until sick, then continue consuming – and then get them to interact with it. The whole idea explores the American food culture, body weight and bingeing.

Andrew used me for a photography class project, so it was his turn to sit in front of the camera. Turns out, he loves Nutella. (Case in point: I bought too much for the shoot. After the shoot he starts eating it with crackers until he’s a little sick. Crazy kid.) The results are pretty fun:

Studio Time

A friend asked me to do some portraits. We shot in colour, but I'm only now noticing the tones in black and white. We should have chosen a darker background.That's the thing about the studio: its either amazing or discouraging. I find it frustrating more often than not: I'm just not that knowledgeable with light (where to put the strobes, how to fix shadows, bounce light, etc.) Practice makes perfect, I suppose.
