Sometimes a kitchen just is a place for food preparation. In the case of my country kitchen however, every time I am cooking up a meal or clean up some dishes, I just feel happy. Many chefs say that when they are in their kitchen, they feel whole. Though I am not a chef by trade, I like to think I can cook up tasty foods myself and can relate to this feeling. The dirt and grime is left on purpose in this shot for added character.
Tonight, while practicing with some lighting and composition layouts, we decided to document my beloved kitchen. With the help of Steve’s layout design and post-processing tricks, we were able to come up with this moody shot. Bon Appetite!
