Part of a Project I'm Working On
Place Setting

Since I've started Technolutionary, there are only a few moments that I've really questioned my decision to leave the salary world and seek my fortune. Most of them either involved a bankrupt client, or a long wait for someone to pay us for the work. Those aren't frequent moments, fortunately.
Today, though, was one of the highlights. I do the website for Overwood in Old Town Alexandria. I'd gone in a while back, and Chef Rami wanted to take some photos of his cooking for the website. Rami has incredible presentation skills, and his amazingly delicious food frequently looks just as awesome on the plate.
So, today, for a good two hours, he cooked and brought stuff out, and I shot photos. What a joy. I shot well over 200 frames of stuff, and Rami had at least 15 plates of stuff. The hardest to shoot was the steak, and then the ravioli. I got good steak shots, but not good ravioli shots. Next time.
But both Rami and I were in our element today, and each of us knew it. It was a joyous moment.
There was another, recently, but that's another story, for another time.
