I like to look through cookbooks for inspiration from time to time. Actually, compared to most kitchens, I think ours has quite a collection of cookbooks. It is kind of funny how much the photography can effect the quality of a cookbook. People say not to judge a book by its cover, but the other day I looked through a cookbook with some less-than-perfect photography and it really didn't make me want to cook anything.
One cookbook that I do like is All Cakes Considered, an accumulation of recipes by NPR's self-proclaimed cake lady, Melissa Gray. It also features that photography of Annabelle Breakey. Often, after finding a book I like I will go to the photographer's website to see what other work they do. Breakey's whole book is really strong, but I was particularly inspired by her beverage work. This is what I came up with.
