Benny’s Bagels in Lakewood, Dallas – Food Photography

It was a grey, dark, rainy day. We pulled up to Benny’s Bagels and I grabbed a few props, flip my rain jacket hood over my head and made a run for it. I opened the door to a fresh aroma of freshly baked bread. Shaun, the new manager or Benny’s Bagels, greeted me warmly and introduced my husband and me to his team. They were so nice to work with.  Overall, the shoot went well, but I would have liked to have more natural light to work with. I made do with the light that I had and used 1 strobe & a reflector to compensate for the missing daylight.

All I wanted to do was eat each sandwich after (and while) I was done shooting it. We shot the breakfast bagel/scrambler first. Oh, my gosh. He cut it down the middle and steam poured out as he opened it and sat it on the cutting board. I had to remind myself that he was not a waiter serving me breakfast; he was my client and I was to shoot this beautiful sandwich.  Anyway, here are some favorites from the shoot.  Can’t wait to return and pig out as a customer!
