The first sighting of the Afro-Vegan cookbook I worked on with Bryant Terry last summer…

Aside from the photos I print for my own family and friends, I rarely see photographs I have taken in print form. So to see photos I took printed in an actual book that other people intend to purchase is still mind-blowing.

I am grateful to all the people who have pushed me in to this field of photography that I never imagined myself in.

While I still can’t bring myself to call myself a “food photographer,” because that title puts me with a very intimidating group of extremely talented photographers…

Seeing as this is book number 4 that contains only photos of food (that I took)… the idea is becoming a little easier to swallow.

Huge thanks to the wonderfully talented Afro-Vegan Dream Team: Bryant Terry, Amanda Yee, Toni Tajima, Melissa Moore, Karen Shinto, Dani Fisher and Morgan Bellinger. Look for this book in a bookstore near you April 8th, 2014.
