Food Photography

Connecting you to people by sharing your story

For over 10 years, we have been producing Food Photography & Videography with recipes and wine pairings on our website, Crushed Grape Chronicles.
This past year we published 2 photo-heavy cookbooks on wine and food pairings.
With our skills honed, we offer them to you.

Tempting Spoonfuls - Pairing single bites with glorious wine

Robin has always had a love for spoons, with a drawer full of them in all different shapes and sizes. There is comfort in eating something from a spoon and something very sensual also.
Creating a spoon filled with flavors and aromas that will be eaten in a single bite, allowing the flavors to meld and pop in your mouth, is a joyful endeavor, and you are encouraged to make these your own. The Tempting Spoonfuls range from savory to sweet, with something for everyone, and while they are paired with wines, they are delicious on their own.
These recipes are wonderful for appetizers and hors d’oeuvres or simple to create something delicious to spoil yourself, much like a pint of ice cream. The book is a feast for your eyes, with photos of each layered spoonful.
The goal is to make your mouth water and encourage you to create your own “Tempting Spoonfuls.”

Tempting spoonfuls: Small bites paired with wines from around the globe

Tempting Spoonfuls - Pairing single bites with wines from around the globe

This second book in the “Tempting Spoonfuls” series takes us on a global adventure, finding wines from 12 of the world’s wine regions.
The book contains 12 recipes for creating appetizer spoons, perfect for parties. Each recipe pairs with a wine from one of the wine regions.
Beginning in New Zealand and Australia, west to South Africa before several stops in Europe. There are stops in Portugal, Spain, France, Italy, and Germany, before crossing the Atlantic to see Uruguay, Argentina, and Chile. The final stop is the United States in California.
We discover a bit about each country and a wine that you might find there.
The book is lush with photos of the ingredients and final spoons. It is a feast for the eyes that will inspire you to pick up a bottle of wine (or two) and create some of these pairings for friends or family.

Social media: photos, stories, carousels or reels
Recipe videos

If you have been blogging for a while, it is likely that you have some terrific recipes that you posted long ago.
Perhaps these were posted when your photography skills, equipment, or location were not what they are now.

Those posts could use refreshing, but you don’t have the time to reshoot these recipes
AND keep up with the new content you are posting.

Let us do the work. Send us the recipe, and we can reshoot hero shots or even ingredient and step-by-step shots.
We can take it further by creating social media, stories, carousels, reels, or even full recipe videos.

Ingredient Shots

Social Media Photos, Stories, carousels or reels

Content Creation for Marketing

As you can see, we are adept at creating visually enticing images of food and wine. In addition, we can amp up those images, or images you provide, with photo editing, text, and motion to create images, stories, carousels, and reels for you to use in your social media campaigns.

Product shots

Recipe development
Culinary lifestyle shoots

If you have a culinary product or accessory, we can feature it with stand-alone product shots, videos with pan shots, or 360-degree revolves on white backgrounds to make your product pop or as a part of a culinary lifestyle shot.

We can also create Culinary Lifestyle shots of your product, or even develop a recipe with the product for a shoot.

If you are a food producer or marketer and need your product built into a recipe, we can do that also. This can be pre-packaged foods or kitchen products that can be tied in with a recipe!

Publications

For online or print publications, we can offer photos of recipes in high definition.

Cookbook Authors

Recipe development, putting love into the food, and creating a collection of recipes to tell a story and share with others is an art form.

Food photography is another art form. You don’t have to do it all. You focus on storytelling and recipes; we will help tell your story through beautiful photos.
