Wake up, look at the alarm. Damn, it’s only 3 am… Too early… Go back to sleep. Wake up, look at the alarm… Hmmm, 5.30 am. That is late enough, isn’t it? I would jump out of my bed and run excited to my parents bedroom. Screaming something like ‘It’s my birthday, it’s my birthday!’ [...]

Decisions can sometimes be the hardest things to make. Do we hold on to things because it makes sense or because we are used to ‘having’ it? It’s the time of month to do my tax returns and that got me thinking about the cost involved in keeping my studio versus the return it gives [...]

I don’t really know what it is with pannacotta. Ever since I photographed the first one about a year ago, it seems to have grown into some sort of addiction, with the notable exception that now I have to make them first. The first pannacotta was made by Claudia, a real Italian lady, with whom [...]

I had previously shot some panna cotta but I had actually never made this typical Italian dessert myself. I had made the panna cotta itself the day before, so they could sit in the fridge overnight and become firm. I was actually surprised how easy it is to make. I had always thought it was [...]
