work in progress

Lately I have been working on a cookbook for a television show called "komen eten". The book should be in the shops in a couple of months and I am looking forward to it very much. It's my first similar project and I 've learned a great deal. Not only the technical aspect, but also about dealing with my clients and their wishes, and the huge amount of work that comes with a job like this... (altering menus, buying ingredients, styling of the dishes, cooking...) Here's a small selection of images. In total I am making 66 dishes for this book.

Also, next month, an image I made will be used in the Shops from Standaard Boekhandel for their monthly theme. I did this shoot with two children "models" in my studio. The theme was communion. The same image will be used on the cover from Weekend Knack magazine. Exciting times!

experimenting with photoshopped backgrounds

I recently started experimenting with adding photoshopped backgrounds to some of my images. Especially for photos from kids this can ad an extra dimension. Some images can be seen below. Some more are on my website.
