@kathyjollimore and I love how this cover shot we did for the current issue of @halifaxcurated turned out. We often lean toward soft and pretty so it was fun do rich and bold for a change. ♠️ @wildcardcreative

We just finished the last of our strawberries with breakfast and are heading to the market for more. Valley strawberries are my favourite and I can never seem to get enough. 🍓

Elodie had her first taste of Nova Scotia strawberries tonight and, even though I put a tiny twist on classic strawberry shortcake, she LOOOVVVVEEEEED it. Like, banging-her-hands-on-the-highchair-as-hard-as-she-could-demanding-for-more loved it. I cut up Noggin' strawberries and macerated them with sugar. Simple and classic right? But then I made tea biscuits with brown butter and chai spice AND I added a wee bit of rosewater to the whipped cream. Fresh. Bright. Sweet. Spicy. Floral. Summer is officially here folks. 😎

@kathyjollimore and I are so proud of this recipe we developed, wrote, styled and shot for @tasteofns. We poached rhubarb in @bulwarkcider's Blush cider, spooned it onto meringue nests then added dollops of lilac-infused whipped cream. You can find the full recipe on the Taste of Nova Scotia website - http://tasteofnovascotia.com/recipes/cider-poached-rhubarb-pavlova/ ♠️

Got these young 🥕🥕🥕from @nogginscorner at @alderneylandingmarket this afternoon and the woman behind the counter offered to cut the tops off for me. Turns out that offer meant not only less waste in my compost, but a fresh treat for her pigs! 🐽

One of the gorgeous #glutenfree #dairyfree cakes, topped with showstopping fresh flowers from @livelybakeryhfx's garden, that I photographed on Monday. You can find Sasha and her tasty baked treats at the @alderneylandingmarket this weekend! #foodphotography #foodphotographer #foodstyling #foodstylist

I had a verrrrrrrrrrrrrry interesting meeting at @twoifbyseacafe this afternoon. ♠️@kathyjollimore #thatsallicansayfornow

I bought these stunning farm fresh eggs from Amy at @snowyriverfarms. Amy’s parents live next door to my parents and once a week during the growing season, Amy uses her parent’s house as a pick up point for the Snowy River CSA boxes. Last week she posted that she was bringing extra eggs, so I messaged and asked for two dozen. When I opened the cartons, the stunning array of colours took my breath away. I asked Amy about the eggs and here’s her reply - “I'm glad you like them! The eggs that you buy from the store are from either brown commercial layers or white commercial layers. These birds have been bred to lay daily for one cycle (just under a year) and they only lay either a brown or a white egg BUT there are many different breeds of chickens in the world and we own a few of them here on farm. Each breed can lay a different shade of brown or white, pink/beige, blue or green. Our blue egg layers are called Ameraucana and they always lay some shade of blue for an egg. I also have Black Copper Marans which lay a much deeper brown coloured egg than you would see in stores. My Euskal Oiloa hens are the ones that are laying the light pinky beige eggs of a medium size! Last year we bred our Black Copper Maran rooster to one of our Ameraucana hens and the girls who hatched out grew up to lay the deep green eggs!” Aren't they just so gorgeous?! 🥚💙 #eggs #farmfresheggs #getcracking #eggsoeufs #eatlocal #eatlocalns #foodphotography #foodphotographer #foodstyling #foodstylist

Not only did I have an awesome time shooting with Sasha from @livelybakeryhfx yesterday, but she sent me home with this #glutenfree #dairyfree strawberry tart for Elodie. Yessssssss. For Elodie. Chris and I definitely shared with Elodie. 😏🍓😬🤔

I got to work with lovely Sasha from @livelybakeryhfx and we had such a great time! All of her baked treats are both gluten and dairy free and when we finished shooting, she cut me a slice of chocolate cake with fresh strawberries and vegan buttercream flavoured with rhubarb syrup and OH MY GOODNESS IT WAS SO MOIST AND CHOCOLATEY AND DELICIOUS. 🍰🍫🍓🌺🌸🌿#whatishappening Thanks @eatwithjessie for the referral ☺️

It's the one year anniversary of the most thrilling, challenging, soul-clenching, glorious, breathtakingly-intense, heart-swelling thing that has ever happened to me. Happy Birthday Elodie. ✨👶🏼🎂🍰🌈🌿💜

I spent the last two days food styling with @currentstudios on a tv commercial shoot for @chrisbrothersmeats. A week before the shoot, I was asked to create styling options to present to the client and this is one of three that I put together. Assorted made-in-Altlantic-Canada Chris Brothers deli meats, toast points, roasted nuts, Chupadados olives, Brie, fun dollops of Chris Brothers Gourmet Sriracha Mustard and unopened chives from my parents' garden. #foodstyling #foodphotography #charcuterieboard #delimeat #Brie #Spanisholives #chives #gardenfresh #sriracha #dijonmustard
