Spring...

...has officially replaced Autumn as my favorite season. They're both beautiful times of the year here, but Autumn isn't tainted with the large scale leaf management operation that I have to anticipate as winter approaches...

Sweet(s)

I don't do a ton of food shoots, but for whatever the reason most tend to be of sweets; candy, cookies, etc.

This is great, because we always have to have more product on hand than needed for the photos.

I'm not talking about morsels that we've had our hands all over and arranged in the studio, but the extra pieces which are left in the packages after the ones for the beauty shots have been selected.

I'm the lucky guy who gets to keep most of the leftovers.

Yesterday I shot a number of products for Catoctin Popcorn. If you visit their web site you'll see that this is not your everyday popcorn.

Tuxedo is one of their newest specialties, and it tastes as good as it looks in the photo below.

Here's a quick G9 snapshot of some of the other leftovers which currently reside in both my kitchen and my stomach:

While popcorn is this company's specialty, they also have numerous other treats available, including gormet nuts, brittles, and more. Good stuff!
