Need some great images to match your amazing recipes that you have on your food blog?

Post your blogs here, and then ask people to like your post.  Whoever gets the most comments for their blog will get three of their creations photographed by Jeanine in December – and three images to use for their blog or marketing.  We will stop counting votes on December 1st.

The winning blog can supply me with three recipes that will be cooked and styled, and then photographed by Jeanine Thurston and as a little bonus, they will get a copy of the new MUY BUENO Cookbook (photographed & signed by Jeanine and Yvette).

PHOTOS in the love of food.

Muy Bueno Cookbook – available now at Barnes & Noble bookstores and online at Amazon.com

Food photography is an amazing thing that draws the viewers and makes them say yum… or not.  Do any of you have one or more cookbooks sitting on your shelf?  Now how many recipes have you actually made that DIDN’T have a corresponding photo?

It’s the law of averages – the more  photos that tell the viewer that it looks good to eat – the more likely they will come back to look at your blog, the more likely they will post it on their social media pages, and the more images they see they like in a cookbook… the more likely they will buy it.   There are a lot of wonderful chiefs out there, but some of us are just average mom, spouses, or even bachelor(ettes) that really just want to be able to cook a recipe without too much effort and make it look good.  Being able to compare what you have prepared from a recipe to a photo in a book can be the pat on the back you need to know you did it right.

I’ve been photographing small products and food for over two decades and how can I help but love it when someone looks at a food photo and you can see them with a slight hunger twinge in their tummy for it.

That being said… it’s time to spruce up your blogs and websites.  Why not push your food blog to the next level – and make it look as good as it tastes? Let me help you with your food blogs or cookbooks to be and make people drool.  For details please contact me at info@fototails.com for a brochure and options for making your blog pop!

PEI Vita Denver

Vita Denver: P.E.I. Mussels

As many of you have seen this year, I’ve been photographing a lot of food lately.  Although I’ve been photographing food, commercial and product photography for over 2 decades – 2010 has been an amazing year for food.  With the 2011 MUY BUENO calendar out for sale now, and the MUY BUENO COOKBOOK being published in 2011 we have been continuously photographing old and new recipes for the calendar, book and blogs.  In addition, I’ve had the opportunity to photograph for some amazing new clients this year  like Vita and 1515 and Blue River Bistro – to name a few.

What will 2011 bring?  Looking forward to so many things I don’t know where to start.  We will be having a book release party for MUY BUENO, I’m working on a photography book that we have planned for publish late 2011 or early 2012, and a couple photography classes I’ll be teaching also at the end of 2011.  This of course in addition to photographing for my wonderful clients.
