Delicious Dessert Photography for Wandering Zorba Bakery | Northern Virginia Photographer

I'm so excited to finally be able to share this great collaboration with everyone! I have been drooling -- literally -- over these dessert photos for a while, but had to wait a tick to officially share with y'all. A while back, I had the opportunity to work with Wandering Zorba Bakery to photograph their desserts as they worked to launch their company. John and his mom, Elvira, run Wandering Zorba as a "sweet" food cart in Northern Virginia. They focus on baking traditional Greek desserts using the family recipes that Elvira herself brought stateside as a young woman from Greece. In addition to using their own family recipes, John and Elvira use locally sourced ingredients whenever possible. 

A great plus of doing a food shoot is that when it's over, there are lots of yummy things to try...and try I did! From the deliciously flaky and nutty baklava to the luscious revani with just a hint of lemon, my taste buds were not disappointed. Trust me, their website and its tantalizing descriptions of each dessert will have your mouth watering in no time, and soon you'll be itching for your own taste of the Wandering Zorba's delightful desserts. If you're in the Northern Virginia area, I strongly urge you to check them out at your local farmer's market. You won't be disappointed!

Note: Wandering Zorba is on Twitter here, and Facebook here. Follow them for cart location updates and specials!

FW Magazine's 3rd Anniversary Party

I had the opportunity to photograph FW Magazine's 3rd Anniversary party. It was held at the Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams showroom and store downtown, and featured a panel of DC interior design bloggers and HGTV designers Cortney and Robert Novogratz. The panel was super entertaining and everyone had a great time. As an added bonus, I saw a lot of new trendy ideas for redecorating our apartment!
