I’ve been so busy with setting up the new website that I hardly have had time to shoot any food. Most of the stuff is working now, with a few minor exceptions, so I thought I post some ‘old’ photos of a behind the scenes of one of the food shoot that I did with [...]

I know there are quite a lot of posts already on the site, but those have all been transferred from the ‘old’ blog, sooo.. this is the first official post from the brand new blog, which is still in the process of building. It’s the first time I am actually using specific software on my [...]

One of my very first customers was a small catering company called het Komfoortje. We met at the opening of my previous studio in Hilversum two years ago as he was supplying the snacks for the opening. We got to talk and decided that we would exchange services rather then money. He provided the food [...]

Have you ever wondered where the name smoothie comes from? I’ve heard it used in various different ways; apparently a man with no hair at all is also called a smoothie! but…that is not the topic of this post, fear not! It’s really a bit early to get really sweet and lovely fruit, as most [...]

I had a bit of an off-day today… I slept lousy due to the fact that we really need to buy a new bed. The old matras is terrible and makes me wake up with backpain in the middle of the night. Not good for my sanity! We’re looking for a new bed (arguably too [...]

Ah…eh…ok, I admit I was not really focused this afternoon when making this ‘noodlesoup’. As you can probably tell from the image above there is really not a lot of moisture left as I believe I didn’t use enough chicken stock… or at least I think I didn’t use enough as there wasn’t anything left [...]

Ever since Tom and I met 17 years ago, we had this tradition of having breakfast together in bed each weekend. Being my own boss has actually meant that those breakfast are becoming somehow a [...]

Can anyone tell me what Bulghur is? I was supposed to make the above recipe with Bulghur but – ofcourse – could not find it, so had to exchange it with couscous. My feeling is that the two are a lot alike, as it tasted quite good with the couscous. I was actually really really [...]

Let me begin by saying that I am absolutely no expert when it comes to editing things in photoshop, but I can do the basics. In general I believe in the idea to make sure you shoot the food right in the first place thus limiting the amount of time spend behind the computer. Let’s [...]

Is it the punishment for loving food, that at some point in your life you look into the mirror and you realize that … well… you could do with losing a few kilo’s? More then a few would be a better description..:) Ofcourse you can punish yourself even more and start a crashdiet. Bad for [...]

It must be something that only people who love cooking can appreciate; the ability to be able to buy the most beautiful ingredients at your own doorstep. I am not that lucky as the place I live inĀ doesn’t seem to feel the need to create places where you can buy something other then potatoes [...]
