10 Days Looking

10 days is a personal project seeking, looking, and lingering in places, and spaces.

Shooting for clients and “working for clients”all the time has a way of getting in the way of SEEing

Feeling makes the way to see again. Coloring outside the lines; following instinct over structure can

be a liberating relief… below is a view into that process.

Love Pretty Food Blog goes Macrobiotic


Grilled Salmon Salad

Love Pretty Food Bloggers are plugging along in Culver City. Tasting and sampling abound for the Summer Lunches series. Focusing on healthy; reasonably priced and pretty. M Chaya De Chaya was our last stofoff. Sounds too tofu- ISH for me but they have choices on their menu, which are not solely fish or tofu products. One question ..?? is anything prepared to order? I mean it's a bunch of prepared foods sitting in the case on display.

Ford's Filling Station

Ford's Filling Station

It's not everyday we get taken out to lunch by a client and eat in a place where we have been wanting to do our food blog killing two birds with one stone.
So, we met with chef Ben Ford for a promotional campaigning he is doing with our client Dole, had some great food and dined with clients and friends.
It was dine LA Week and Chef Ford had a brilliant selection to choose from.
I had the Sturgeon Confit, which was brilliant with toasted crisp and seasoned bread. Fish and Chips which is one of the favs there and A Porchetta Sandwich which had ham and Caramelized onions grilled in a flat bread. Quite nice.
And of course, the desserts. cream puffs and Butterscotch pudding. what can I say, they were both good nothing was left over.

Huerta Quorum Advertising

Wow it's been almost three years that we started initiating contact with Huerta Quorum, Glendale. Just recently we made live contact. It was the end of last season. We got a call from lead Creative Director Barbara Cocks to do some work for a fruit company doing consumer print advertising. What was more surprising is that HQ wanted a live meeting to discuss details of the shoot, so that we could create an estimate.

What a tickling feeling to realize that all the emails, and phone calls and postcards might have finally reached a live art director. This kind of effort doesn't always come back around. Cheers to persistence and consistency!!

WE Welcome HQ and Barbara Cocks. We are happy to expand the IMSTEPF studios clan to encompass Barbara Cocks and the HQ crew. IMSTEPF studios and Huerta Quorum is match made in the City of Angels. WE are a union of like-minded foodies congregating in the midst of concepts; words; textures; colors; and lines. These lines converge to catapult images and products onto the earths visual landscape. WE create to inform, educate, guide and connect. Cheers to 2009 and to bringing ones prosperity— and return bringing prosperity to all!

Evan Saunders Joins IMSTEPF team!

Newsflash++++++++++++++++++++++
Welcome to the IMSTEPF crew Evan Saunders … Intern extraordinaire!! Last week was Evan’s introduction to the studio.. and we are so pleased to have him on set. We love, like, appreciate, we are into his wholesome Pennsylvania vibe. Evan is a superb team player and a shining soul– as in sparkly, strong, sweet, super duper cool. What a treat to have him reorganize the prop shop, like having grandma bake brownies for the weekend. He’s a machine, a well maintained, in check up to date mechanism!! Excellent Attention to detail, he is focused, clear and efficient with time. This makes Evan an ideal match for the IMSTEPF crew.

IMSTEPF studios is plugging along tenaciously nurturing its 2009 fans and clients. Wow Wee!! Yes we acknowledge there a bit of a glitch in our national economy, which affect everyone big and small. However we'd like to remind ourselves and you out there to remember it's not the events that shape your destiny. It's the meaning you attach to those events that shape your life.

A Little About Us

We provide creative photography for advertising. We are food photographers who love to take pictures of food. We enjoy photography and the subject of food. Food Photography is identified as a specialty by photographers because this area of photography is so vast. We choose food photography because we appreciate food down to our toes. The food subject is nourishing, sensual, and gorgeous. It feeds our families, friends and our souls. Not to mention our clients, their bank accounts and then ourselves and in that order. In short, Food Photography is one of best places to be. We take pleasure in creating it, eating it, arranging it, and photographing it.
