Food Prep. An enjoyable shoot because after you’re finished you get to eat it. I wanted to create a striking image focusing strictly on the food and a particular message. And the message? Polluting our planet, polluting our food. We live off the resources this planet provides us, and by wrapping a plastic holder for a six-pack can of Dale’s Pale Ale around the salmon’s head while floating over a white ceramic plate, represents the sense of fragility yet power which our food is. This image is a composite: one image exposed for the plate, the other for the salmon which was hung with 15lbs fishing line cleaned up in PS5.

Nice work Cameron. The minimalism makes for a striking message.
