Shooting food.Week´s Dinners; our little book

stacked copys of Weeks Dinner

Last autumn we decided to do a little side project, for fun and inspiration.  We thought it would be nice to produce something of our own, with no special customer ordering the job.  Sanna, project manager on our studio Centralateljén (and also my lovely wife) is running a nice food blog, Veckansmiddag (Week´s Dinners (not 100% sure of the translation here)). We decided to work with a little book, inspired of Sannas blog with dinner menus for all days of the year. The book is inspired by the thought of eating low carb food.

We had great fun! Sanna constructed  menus, Peter wrote text and I shot pictures and  layouted. Sanna and Peter even constructed a site, (Enkla Boken.se), as a small web bookstore.

The book is simply a bank of ideas of what to serve for dinner.

Some of the pictures were shot at home at the dinner table, with all the hungry kids waiting for dinner, others were shot in the studio.

To decorate the text we needed several  food objects on white background. I really like to layout with this kind of pics!

This was just a couple of samples from the little book. We have quite a few ideas for more books, and are hoping it will be time for us to put some of them together soon.
