Despite the rain that morning it was a lovely drive through the trees to their small rural property just out of Dunsborough in south west Western Australia. The road took me along a shady country road that I had never been along before despite having visited the Dunsborough-Yallingup area many times over the years.
Bree and Dale welcomed me like old friends and they were a joy to work with. One of the things I really enjoyed was working closely with a professional chef and his partner to create the food shots they were looking for. We collaborated all the way through. They just didn't leave it to me because I was the photographer. Bree & Dale were easy to work with and knew what they wanted - a clean, no fuss look. They wanted the food to look like it would when the customer took it home.
Escape the Kitchen came about when many people bemoaned that Bree & Dale no longer owned their restaurant and they were no longer able to enjoy the food that Dale created in his kitchen. And with so many people time poor these days, Bree & Dale realised there was a nitch they could fill, creating delicious nutritious take away food at a reasonable price. They built a commercial kitchen on their property, and Escape the Kitchen was born.
Bree & Dale are currently creating their website with a technical friend, and they searched on the net for a food photographer. They found me! Bree and I chatted on the phone and within a week I was in their kitchen in Dunsborough.
Hearty winter fare..........
Or perhaps a light salad.......I can vouch that the Caesar salad was delicious!
We photographed a lot of dishes but I thoroughly enjoyed photographing Dale's chef created food and collaborating on the styling with Bree. Oops don't mind the fingers!
How's the sauce drizzle?
Dale and Bree also cater for functions and weddings. I'm looking forward to seeing the new Escape the Kitchen website when it is completed. I'll let you know!
