Albuquerque Food Photography - Cake Fetish

Albuquerque Food Photography - Cake Fetish

I got a food photography assignment to make photos that will be used for an online ordering app at a place called Cake Fetish in Albuquerque, New Mexico.  I was intrigued, naturally.  I was greeted by the owner, Kendall Harris, who has won a TV baking competition!  She began bringing out a wide assortment of amazing looking baked goods.

Birthday Party for Olivia and Christian

Besides being a professional photographer, I also teach Mac & OS X lessons.  Carlos is a longtime Mac student of mine who hired me to photograph his children's birthday party.  It was a unique experience for me to have a client that I already knew well and to shoot on location at his home in Tampa.  His family could not have been more friendly and his backyard could not have been a better outdoor location for photographing a birthday party.

Olivia was both not camera shy at all and also able to act totally naturally despite a long lens being pointed her way most of the party.  Again, I could not ask for a better combination!  She also was a very active birthday girl making for a wide variety of candid action shots.  A large rubber ball and a helium balloon are great props!

All the birthday cupcakes a boy can eat! (c) 2009 Jason Collin Photography

The birthday boy was a bit more reserved, showing wisdom beyond his years in securing direct access to some scrumptious birthday cup cakes.  I can testify to their deliciousness myself having eaten one.  

Thanks to Carlos, Olivia, Christian and the rest of the family for making it a great afternoon of birthday photography!
