Will you please write a non boring book. I think it would be brilliant.

I am trying to figure out if it’s a gun, or a very elaborate hand ornament in the second photo. Definitely not boring in either case.

Yes!!! It’s also not boring how your hand switches positions in the photos.

I love this. This post got Adam and me talking. We are always on the lookout for not-boring food photography. He has generally always hated food photography since it’s so boring. But now that he’s married to me, he has to deal with my constant reading/talking about/cooking food. We had lots of fun in Italy shopping for the weirdest ingredients we could find and then doing really weird photo shoots with them. (On one occasion I was forced to pose with chicken head sausages for longer than was comfortable. Also, octopuses.)
We always look for Grant Cornett’s food photos in the NYT Mag. Adam likes those a lot because they’re pretty weird! Another good example of someone doing it differently, though now we’ve also started to see people ripping off his style…
