Week#12 Robert S. Evans III

For these images I had the opportunity to work with a food stylist. However, I could not resist using a mannequin hand in the first shot. I had a lot of fun on this shoot got to mix my own style of shooting food with a more traditional look to it.

OK. I really love this place mate and glass, so i decided to shoot this slice of pumpkin pie on it. Not sure if I feel these images was as successful as my last to post, but I do enjoy the light and color in them.

week#10 Robert S Evans III

Here I go again mixing up the point of view on how I shoot food. This time I choose a bear claw pastry and hot coco. Shot this with natural light. I am very happy with the color and how these two images came out. The second shot of the bear claw was a variation I tried and is my favorite out of the two images

week#9 Robert S. Evans III

I gave more traditional look to shooting food, just to see if I could make food look good. I feel that I managed to pull this off. Showed this to a couple of people and they seem to enjoy these images a lot. I think I will try a few more like these and see where it takes me. However I will not put my normal point of view on food a side to long.

Week #7 Robert S Evans III

I shoot this for a Valentine's Day brief in my food photography class two terms ago. It was a lot of fun for me because I got to finally bring food and people together. The idea was a Night for one. Basically this lady gets stood up by her lover on Valentine's Day after she had planned this night of passion for her and her lover.After a few glass of champagne she decides to not waste the night crying over it, she would partake in the night she had planned out with herself. She ends up discovering a private her-eyes-only sexual fetish with food.

Week #6 Robert S Evans III

I shoot this still life last spring during my first go around in a food photography class at Art Center. The brief was green and we had to use seven different objects with four of them being food. Earlier that week I was randomly given a set of 1:32 ratio of German WWII soldiers. Which I had the strange urge to use for this brief one because they were green and another I thought it would be cool to have then fighting these weird green candy frogs. Then I was off to Whole Foods to partake in one of my newly discovered parts of producing a shoot propping which now for me is at much fun as the actual shoot . I was like a kid in a candy store. I found so much green food it was hard to focus. However I decided that I would build a world out of veggies and have the soldiers epic battle against the alien green frog candies. The shoot was a lot of fun and brought back some childhood memories of dressing in my fathers old military clothes and setting up battles with my friends.

week#5 Robert S. Evans III

This is the last installment for my mannequin hands food project. I was shooting some Cognac this past Monday. I decided to take a dark, moody approach because of it being month of all hollows eve. Not to mention I have been reading Edgar Allen Poe this past month and I was inspired by a couple of his poems/stories. For the first time in this series I was frustrated with my food/beverage. I was having trouble with the liquor being way to dark and not glowing as much as I would have like it to. However as a whole image I am happy in the way it turned out.

Week#3 Robert S. Evans III

These images are the next installment for my food and mannequin hands series. The top image is an experiment with different colored light as-well-as using a mannequin torso in a Cheddar broccoli soup recipe shoot. The Cheddar broccoli soup images consist of 1 ingredient shot and a recipe shot. Next comes my orange inspired food shoot.
