Richmond, Virginia & Washington, DC Food Photography | Natural Light Photography for Restaurants & Small Businesses

 

If we’re being honest here, food is my favorite thing to photograph. It doesn’t move, it looks beautiful and then you get to eat it! Over the last few years, I’ve been working for a few different companies in Portland, photographing some of my all-time favorite restaurants like Screen Door, Holiday & Fifty Licks Ice Cream. My sister & I both love to bake and cook as well, so we started an instagram (@cestlebrie) where we post all of our favorite food experiences. She lives in DC and I live in Richmond, Virginia now so we finally live close enough that we get to share some of these experiences! I’m excited to start photographing some of the amazing restaurants here in Richmond and in DC too!

 

Molly & Ryan's Intimate Winter Wedding at Snowy Silcox Hut on Mount Hood

 

I’ve been so cold for the last few weeks and I’m definitely starting to miss summer … and sunshine … and warmth. I can’t believe it’s already DECEMBER but I’m excited to see what 2019 has in store. I’ll be turning 30 in February AND I’ll be in Tokyo on my birthday which is a serious checkmark off my bucket list. We also recently found out we have to move out of our apartment in March so I can already sense that next year is going to be filled with lots of changes. Molly & Ryan’s wedding at Silcox Hut on Mount Hood was one of my favorite weddings ever and I can’t believe I haven’t shared these photos yet! I also photographed Molly & Ryan’s engagement session so be sure to check out that post if you want to see more of these two cuties. <3

Pink Glam-onade Glitter Shoot | Emily Mazour & Tree Sphinx & Blair Doucette

 

I'm obsessed with this shoot. I've been on a hiatus of sorts when it comes to fashion shoots. When I first moved to Portland I did so many shoots that I burnt myself out. But lately, with the emergence of spring and the sunshine finally on its way, I'm feeling super inspired for the first time in years. 

Emily Mazour was the creative genius behind Blair's pink and yellow hairstyle. Chelsea Sinks, also known as "Tree Sphinx", is responsible for the glitter and makeup magic. I recently acquired some new filters and experimented with Emily's ring light, and it was enough to convince me that I needed a ring light of my own (which I'm purchasing today)! 

Here are some of my favorites from the shoot. Make sure to scroll to the end of the post to check out my fav film photos (polaroids, holga, 120mm, etc.). Can't wait to work with this incredible team again!
