This class is designed to help take your understanding of successful food styling and photography to the next level. It is open to bloggers, food professionals, entrepreneurs bringing a product to market, and students and chefs interested in writing cookbooks. You'll be introduced to trends in food styling and key considerations in food photography, as Junita and Steve present their portfolio of work. Junita will then style food for Steve to photograph, analyzing and discussing the presentation from different lighting perspectives and with various effects. You will have a chance to style some food yourself, look at the composition with Steve using a digital camera, and receive Junita's feedback and critique. Steve Legato is a freelance photographer specializing in creating inspired food imagery. His work has been featured in "Art Culinaire," the "New York Times," "Food & Wine," "Wine Spectator," "Food Arts," "GQ," "Departures," "Wine & Spirits," "Travel & Leisure," and many more. Steve has photographed over 40 cookbooks, and was the photographer for ICE CAPS co-chair Chef Kathryn Gordon’s first book, "Les Petits Macarons" (Running Press). Junita Bognanni is a food stylist, writer, pastry connoisseur, and ICE graduate. She was the food stylist for ICE CAPS cochair Chef Jenny McCoy’s first book, "Desserts for Every Season" (Rizzoli).
You will work in teams to execute the class menu. At the end of class, participants gather to enjoy the food they have prepared. Wine is served with meals in most classes. All class menus are subject to change. While a snack platter is offered in both morning and evening classes, you may want to consider a light snack before joining us for class. Students are encouraged to bring a light lunch or dinner to all pastry classes.
