Kitchen for food photographer: shiny and new!

We always had a kitchen in the studio, but was never actually shooting in it. It was mainly used for food preparation and styling, occasional party cooking, etc.  When I worked with Shirley Corriher, for a first time (see the result) , we used a kitchen a lot, most of  the cakes, biscuits and other sweeties which I do not know how to call, was made in our kitchen.

Photo-session Warehouseman of the Year 2009 Winners for RefrigiWear, Inc.

Did you ever feel what a frozen chicken feels ? I recently had a chance to get an idea :-)

I was hired to shoot annual winners for Refrigiwear, Inc. These tough guys are working in a huge warehouse refrigerators and freezers,  25F – 0F temperatures around! It was  quite refreshing environment to work :-)   I am glad my Canon 1Ds Mark III was happy: no sensor noise  at all, working on 200-400 ISO settings.
