My life has always been filled with a passion for cooking and baking that I learned from my Great Aunt Ethel and my Grannie. No recipes, just beautiful fresh ingredients, luck and a lot of love. Back in 2013, Le Cordon Bleu Culinary school in Pasadena, CA became my new adventure. It was a crazy and challenging journey of late weeknights and Saturdays plus a full-time job in Newport Beach, CA. A year later, I graduated from the Patisserie program in 2007 and started a pastry business, Little Oven Pastries. Little Oven Pastries specialized in unique cookies, cakes and other delicious desserts.
Life brought me to Louisville, KY in 2013 and with a well-used Nikon camera, photography quickly became my second love. In 2018, I decided to combine my two loves, food and photography and CB Photography was launched!
2022 brought a new perspective in a new city, Chicago!
I'm passionate about helping culinary creatives do the unexpected by seeing beyond the lens to communicate their brand image through professional editorial photography.
Stay creative and stay inspired,
