Surf & turf is the perfect blend of land and sea. It’s also delicious, and therefore, demands to have photos taken of it. While brainstorming, we landed on using a tomahawk steak, with a non-uniform cutting board, and of course a caramel-colored whiskey. You could cut the masculinity with a knife!

The brown mottled backdrop gave it an upscale, steakhouse vibe, while also allowing the steak to pop next to the salt and garnish. The steak photos feel earthy and warm, but the colors of the sushi are popping off. How were we able to stack three sushi rolls in between two skinny chopsticks? We’ll never tell. We’d be out of a job.

The production areas covered in this shoot include creative direction, pre-production, photography, and editing.
