Table Studies

Soft-boiled eggs on toast styled with greens in directional light
Light first. Then the plate.

Ingredient, texture and appetite shaped through directional light.

Table Studies began during Vincent's photography diploma years as an instinctive experiment in atmosphere. Single-source light, rustic surfaces and small imperfections give every plate its character.
