Snowmen Cookies

Holiday Baking! Here are my snowmen cookies from today, great models for food photography. I need to think of a different background for my baking, that baking sheet seems to make quite a few guest appearances.

Baking Day Extravaganza Day 2

Baking day with Katy today! Photo #1) our failed attempt at using an apple corer/peeler/slicer. Photo #2) our attempt at making flourless chocolate cake but quickly failed by a temperamental oven thermometer and Photo #3) the success of our day - Apple Cheddar scones. Successes of the day: Good scones, good company, experimentation of my new 50 mm lens and motivation for our next project together - sewing aprons! They will match our holiday baking so well.

Molasses Cookies

It's baking season! All I want to do is bake but I have limited myself to one baking project per week. Maybe. We'll see how that goes. Here are molasses cookies from a few weeks back. I need help deciding which image form each set that I like best. 1 or 2? 3 or 4? Help! I have more images but I am not as satisfied with them.

This has become a personal project - photographing what I love. Baking + photography = happy me. Plus, I get to make my friends happy sharing all of these yummy morsels :)

Baking Day Extravaganza!

Today my friend Katy and I got together for an afternoon of baking adventure. We made pumpkin cheesecake (it wasn't cool enough to serve up and photograph) and orange chocolate biscotti. It was great hanging with a Cottey friend and doing what we love - baking yummy desserts. And the biscotti turned out pretty darn well for the first time ever making it! Let me know what you think of the images!
