Photo find: Karen Mordechai

Karen Mordechai is the multi-talented lady behind Sunday Suppers, a name I’m sure many of you have heard before. The company was founded to provide cooking classes and dining experiences to lucky, lucky people in the New York City area.

Karen herself is both a stylist and photographer of food and weddings, making her well-suited to turning out stunning events. The gorgeous images below are from her portfolio, which showcases a mix of work for her own company and others’. Enjoy, and have a Happy Friday my friends!

Photo find: iPhone Love by Deb McLean

Hello, everyone! I’ve been a bit of a bad blogger this week- settling into routine after vacation sure is tough! I did mean to post this on the day I left, but a bout of flu the morning I had to fly (yes, it was horrible) kept me from the computer. I’ll be back next week but in the meantime, have a Happy Friday!

It was a post on Decor8 which turned me on to Deb McLean‘s blog, Busy Being Fabulous. The professional stylist shares photos and stories from her day-to-day life, but there’s one category in particular which I love to browse. iPhone Love is where Deb catalogues her beautifully styled and shot photos taken on the hoof with – that’s right – her iphone. You almost won’t believe this:

Photo find: What Katie Ate

Katie Quinn Davies is a professional food photographer living and working in Sydney, Australia. While her professional work is wondrous to behold , it’s her personal blog What Katie Ate which has me hooked. It’s rare to see this level of styling in the food blogosphere. Enjoy this beauty, and have a Happy Friday!

Flickr find: Elena Karelova

I was delighted to stumble across the Flickr photostream of Elena Karelova recently. Elena is a St. Petersburg-based photographer who shoots weddings, portraits, travel and of course, food. Feast your eyes on these lovely images and get inspired for the weekend ahead. Happy Friday!

Photo Find: Miyuki Sakai

Today’s “find” was actually discovered via a post on Decor8 earlier this week. A spread on tarts in the latest issue of Martha Stewart Living caught Holly’s eye, thanks to the gorgeous and highly unusual styling. Created by Japanese-born and San Francisco-based artist Miyuki Sakai, those “plates” are actually hand-made illustrations. Created with a sewing machine and thread. Can you even believe that? As a food lover and keen sewer, I’m all over this idea:

Miyuki has some lovely work in her portfolio, too. I’m loving all these gorgeous “drawings” of produce, treats and beautifully laid tables:

And with that, I’ll leave you to enjoy your weekend. Happy Friday!

Etsy find: Whimsy & Spice

Today’s “find” is a bit of a cheat, I’ll admit. Confectioner Whimsy & Spice is the featured seller on Etsy today, and I noticed their lovely photos as soon as I clicked over there. The Brooklyn-based business is run by a husband and wife team; Jenna is the designer and photographer and Mark the pastry chef extrordinaire. Unfortunately they can’t ship internationally (for obvious reasons), but my mouth is definitely watering while looking through thier shop.

If you’re interested in these lovely images sans calories, the couple also plans to open a photography shop, Sweet Fine Day, soon.

Photo find: Simply Breakfast

Ok, so Jennifer Causey‘s Simply Breakfast blog isn’t exactly a “find”. Her daily and atmospheric photos of mouth-watering breakfasts are the stuff of internet legend, after all. But that doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy some on this lovely Friday morning, does it? Have a great weekend, everybody!
