Happy Holiday
This week is a week of cooking...strangely enough for a food photographer, something that I don't particularly care to do. Perhaps I should photograph the turkey. Well, not if it looks like last year's :)
That is why I always prefer to work with a food stylist. As someone has said, "Shooting food photography without a food stylist is like making a movie without a make up artist."
I am thankful for many things in my personal life. Professionally however, I am thankful that I work with wonderful clients - both food and product photography clients - and that I have found extremely talented food stylists that make me look good.
So, I am taking this moment to say thank you. Have a great holiday.
Just a reminder that I will not be available from January 17 through February 5, 2016. Please mark your calendars.
Please visit my portfolio at www.photography-by-jerry.com and I hope you enjoy viewing it as much as I did shooting it. My latest photo book can be seen HERE. To learn a little bit more about me personally, you can visit my blog at blog.photography-by-jerry.com. You can always contact me by e-mail at jerry@photography-by-jerry.com. Thanks for reading. |

About Me
My name is Jerry Deutsch and food photography has been my passion since the early 1980s. At that time, I was a science teacher and weekend wedding photographer. Having the summers off, I worked as an assistant in New York City. For three summers I worked for commercial still life photographers who told me that I couldn’t afford to become a photographer because in commercial photography, there was no such thing as a part-time or weekend photographer. They were great photographers, great mentors and they were right. I put off my dream until I retired from 31 years of teaching science.
Well, retirement arrived and the first thing I did was buy a digital SLR, started renewing my skills and building a portfolio. I am located in Manalapan, NJ and service New York City, Philadelphia and all of New Jersey.
So, for the past several years, I am a working commercial still life photographer. I am living my dream.

Foodpreneurs project
I've been invited to be a speaker at the "Foodpreneurs" boot camp. It is designed for those entrepreneurs breaking in to the food industry. I was amazed how helpful the boot camp was and how much I learned. I strongly suggest you check it out at our Meetup page. |
