I have to
give a big "Thanks!" to Chicago Magazine for naming The Salpicon! Cookbook one of the top 6 cookbooks of the year! Take a look at the December
2009 issue for the full article.
It was such
a great shoot. From the markets in Mexico City with Priscilla to tasting the
phenomenal tequila at Salpicon (to keep the creativity flowing, of course!) we
really had a ball.
Special
thanks to the entire team: Andrea Kuhn, Jen Straus, Isaiah Jay, and Aaron
Corey.
Wahoo!
After a bit of a hiatus (back surgery #2…ugh!) we are back in action. Literally. I’ve decided to get back into motion and couldn’t be more excited about it.
Check out our kick-off spot here:
Had an incredible amount of fun working on this project. Got a chance to catch up old friends, and with some of the best talent I’ve ever worked. Special thanks to Jeff Barklage, who is always REDy for action. And Red Echo Post for a fantastic edit.
Unlike tonight, last night was beautiful
It's a beautiful Saturday evening in Chicago. Perfect for some champagne and jazz Enjoy!
Recently I had the great pleasure of touring Molise, Italy with Beatrice Ughi (the lady having the most fun in the front!). She is one of the partners of Gustiamo, an importer and distributor of fine Italian foods in NYC. Her knowledge, passion and love for life is absolutely magical.
A guy I was working with last week accused me of being a light wrangler. I'm kinda ok with that.
Just had the wonderful opportunity of shooting new work for Terzo Piano, Tony Mantuano's new restaurant in the Chicago Art Institute's Modern Wing (opening this Saturday, May 16). On a rainy day it's perfect; on a sunny day it's spectacular.
Spectacular ox race that was one of the craziest events I've seen. The excitement, the pageantry...amazing!
