I've decided to put all of my food pics under one thread instead of making separate entries.
My current position as the Private Executive Chef for the U.S. Ambassador is one that affords me a great deal of creativity as well as latitude when it comes to cooking. I'm not restricted to a certain set menu and I get to write up a menu for each event at my discretion. Although each menu has to get official approval from the Ambassador or the Madam, the number of times I've been asked to change a certain aspect of the menu can be counted on one hand. It really is a dream position for any creative Chef.
As such, I've been taking photos when I have the time to do so of each dish that goes out. Sometimes I have the time to do so while other times I don't depending on various factors. The photo quality will vary depending on whether I'm using my Canon 5D Mk.II, a Ricoh GR Digital III or a Samsung Galaxy S4 smartphone.
Anyways, I'll start this thread off with a luncheon I did for the Madam earlier today for 4 lady guests.
I only had time to photograph the 1st and 3rd course today, which were:
1st Course:
"Shitake Mushroom w/ Caramelized Onion & Oven Roasted Baby Tomato... Age Balsamic Reduction"
3rd Course:
"Simple Spring Salad w/ Caeser Dressing, Parmigiano-Regiano & Bacon"
