Foodprint 2013

The new Foodprint is out! The publication was revealed on monday 18th of march at Flanders Expo in Gent.

Just like the previous years, I created an exclusive image for the publication, building further on the fine line between Food and Fashion (see the Foodprint entry in my Portfolio for the images of the previous years).

For 2013, I wanted to share with you My martini Man (best chin since batman :-))

Stephanie Fraikin Foodprint 2013

Let her eat cake!

I noticed that lack of sleep usually puts me either in a lethargic state, or in a crazy adrenaline driven mode. Unfortunately, I can’t tell when which will happen so it’s down to luck really.
Thursday was one of those insanely busy yet brilliant days. And good for me, adrenaline driven.

There was the early wake-up call, the mad dash for the cake (over cobbled roads), the preservation of said cake (we’ve had a terrible weather so far but Thursday the sun decided to shine so I spent the drive back with the air co turned up to the max)… 
And then the shoot. Great fun girls! Sanne did a wonderful job on the make-up and styling and Floriane was so enthusiastic about munching on the cake I thought she hadn’t eaten for days.

And of course, thank you Petit Gateau for this masterwork!
Here are my two favorite images from the shoot, more will follow on www.stephaniefraikin.com.
 

Petit Gateau

Do you remember I was looking for a cake-artist the other day? Well, I found it!
I’ll be working together with Petit Gateau: an Antwerp based company specialized in all sorts of cakes (weddings, birthdays…).
They do an amazing work!
Why would you go to a (boring) local baker when you can have these for an afternoon High Tea?

So thanks to this collaboration, and if all goes well and the cake survives the car trip: the shoot will take place on Thursday with Floriane as model & Sanne de Wolf as MUA.
Keep posted, I’ll show the final image here in a few days…

Foodprint publication

This Belgian publication (Foodprint) gives an overview of all food related topics and showcases a selection of Belgian top photographers.
For last year’s edition, I invited Ellen for a night-time picnic, where as a Russian princess she indulged, with a bit of guilt, in a few precious strawberries.

This year, I have something else in mind.
Keep an eye on all channels, by the end of next week I should be able to show you something: it’s gonna be finger licking good.
