Cookbook Photography for “It Begins at the Table”
I can’t believe I didn’t post about this project yet — over a year ago, I did the cookbook photography for a beautiful new book “It Begins at the Table.”

It was the third cookbook I was able to photograph for (one for Healthy Living Magazine and the other for Blendtec Blenders). I love a good cookbook project. There is nothing more exciting than helping create such an extensive vision from start to finish. It’s so wonderful to get to hold a copy of each book, knowing the love, craft, and passion that went into each one.

This cookbook was no exception. Beautifully food styled by Taylor Smith and recipes created by Lisa Soldo-Johnson. The book reads almost like a love letter to Lisa’s diverse community she’s created over the years. Recipes from friend’s grandmothers in Iran, a neighbor’s recipe from their home in China, traditional and new recipes from around the world that have found their way into her community. The book is beaming with delicious and diverse recipes. Needless to say, if this is what her dinner parties look like.. count me in.

It was a huge honor to get to be a part of this cookbook. To find a copy of her book, you can find it here.
