Holiday Table Decorations... Part 1

You eat with your eyes first !

A little about me....

Food styling is everything to me - a hobby, a passion and now a career. My work involves anything food related including: writing features on food styling in national newspaper columns, food related blogs, recipe development, speaking engagements, and television spots.

I style for magazines, motion pictures, supermarket chains, cookbooks and consumer goods packaging. Before pursuing my career in food I attended the University of Guelph and graduated with an honours degree in geography and a minor in fine arts. After deciding to follow my passion for food I honed my chef skills at Le Cordon Bleu in London (and if i can toot my own horn - graduated at the top of my class) with a Grand Diplome in cuisine and patisserie. While living in England, one of my clients was the Royal Family =) !

When I can be pried out of the kitchen, you'll likely find me on either the water in our boat relaxing and enjoying nature or on the snow carving up the slopes.
