Kickoff
Thursday, January 26th, 2012
This post has been a long time in the works. Not the mere writing of it, really, but the getting-in-place of the “necessaries” that all combine to make the post even possible. For quite a few years, I’ve had several clients (from my previous place of employment) come up to me and ask, “Grant, when [...]
Enticing Foods from The Pub at Wegmans
Friday, February 25th, 2011
As I type this post, I’m sitting next to a good fire, while just a few feet away from me, outside the window, sits a foot of fresh-fallen, windblown snow. Today was one of the wintriest days we’ve had this season! I was so glad to get out of the city and into the woods [...]
Vegetable Pairings for Menu Magazine
Thursday, September 9th, 2010
Back in late April of this year, I was asked to photograph five different vegetable pairings for the Fall 2010 issue of Wegmans Menu Magazine. The magazine hit store shelves not long ago, and will be available from now until the holiday season. The vegetable serving ideas we illustrated were designed by Wegmans chefs to [...]
Holiday Beverages!
Sunday, December 20th, 2009
In early September, our studio took the call from Wegmans to photograph two drink recipes that were developed to help Menu Magazine readers refresh themselves cheerfully throughout the holiday season! The images would run in the Menu Magazine Holiday Issue, the article beginning on page 58. I was to work alongside art director and good [...]
Playing With Food
Friday, July 10th, 2009
One of the rewarding parts of being a professional photographer are the “testing days!” When the schedule allows, John and I will try to expand our horizons a little, and make a plan to try out some new lighting ideas we have, or do some preliminary tests for an upcoming client project. In some cases, [...]
Pies For Any Occasion
Tuesday, June 30th, 2009
Another segment of the current Menu magazine I had enjoyed photographing for earlier in the year was an article featuring classic pies from the Bakery Department at Wegmans! New this year to the Wegmans pie line was a gorgeous Maine Blueberry Pie! This pie, in addition to a traditional, down-home Apple Pie and incredible Triple [...]
Cool Summer Desserts!
Saturday, June 27th, 2009
Not long after having photographed the meals for the Summer 2009 Wegmans Menu Magazine, I was assigned to create images for an article featuring ice cream and sorbet pairings! A cold winter day seems an unlikely time to be working with frozen treats, but often times we are photographing for a given project 6 months [...]
Summertime is Burger Time!
Thursday, June 11th, 2009
I found myself craving a good burger since I hit the floor this morning. I might have to get a fix later on today! It was this craving that brought to mind the images you see here. On a steamy August day like today, the farthest thing from my mind is cold, blowing snow. It [...]
Website Launch!
Tuesday, December 30th, 2008
The completion and launch of my website is a very exciting event for me, and seems the perfect way to punctuate the end of a really fantastic year! I owe a great deal of thanks to Christine Walker, who concepted, designed and developed the site. I don’t know what I would do without her. She’s [...]
