Ok I am no chef but I love to cook. I am always trying to learn new things, even if it ends in a disaster! Yesterday I decided to keep it very simple. Rather than looking for complicated recipes and exotic ingredients, I decided to follow in the Italians foot steps and attempt a very…

Fresh bread…what’s not to love?
I don’t know about you but I can’t seem to resist fresh bread. If you bring a fresh loaf of crusty bread to my house it will not last long. Warmed through in the oven to crisp up the crust and steam the soft centre and then slathered with butter. And hearing that crunch when…
Do you like to eat fresh?
I’ve been doing some photography for The Brasserie at Milton Keynes College and the food they make is amazing…and it’s made by students! These guys have serious talent, you should check them out. Recently I took some pictures of their summer produce and I loved it. The smell of fresh ingredients gets me so excited,…
Camden Market’s Street Food
My husband and I went to the street food stalls in Camden Market last week and it was amazing! There was so much choice, from American bacon and cheese burgers to Jerk chicken to homemade pasta and more. Wow. We were so confused! We didn’t know where to begin and what to try. Although going…
Is Spring finally here?

The Beauty of Natural Light
As a photographer I am always learning more and more. And with food photography, I have learnt that natural light is the way to go. It gives you everything you need from shadows to highlights and you still have an element of control. This shot was taken with natural light coming through my conservatory window….
London…is it the land of opportunity?
I love London. I went there this weekend and I came back with a greater love for the hustle and bustle lifestyle of London. Granted my small legs are not made for the never ending steps in the underground, but other than that it’s great! I came across people who were friendly and would happily…
Mmmm…bacon!
Just messing around a bit of photography today. Nothing better than a bacon sandwich! Brown sauce or ketchup? That is the question… Check out my website at http://www.jbimagery.co.uk
The Sikh Community
As one of my tasks at college I was given the phrase ‘The good, the bad and the ugly’ and I was to interpret this in any way we want. As I am doing food photography, I decided to think slightly outside the box and photography food culture. I thought to myself, whats good about…
