TUNA & ASPARAGUS

I'm always a big fan of tuna. David's take on this classic dish was nothing but extrodinary. It's not hard to see why this dish is one of the best selling on the menu. 

Photographically speaking, how can you beat the texture and color here? What a fantastic dish to shoot!

DAVID DOES LOBSTER

When you live in Maine, you eat a lot of lobster. It just happens. However, I can assure you that the lobster preppared by Chef David Turin was some of the finest shellfish I've ever had. 

David is a man obsessed with details, even down to sourcing speciality butter for this dish. The presentation, as you can see, is amazing. I'm a firm believer that a meal should look as good as it tastes. I am a photographer after all.

THE MASTER AT WORK

A few weeks ago, I had the absolute pleasure of working with David Turin of David's Restaurant. Located smack dab in the middle of Monument Square in downtown Portland, David's is an institution. 

One of the most creative chef's I've seen in the kitchen, David was kind enough to plate dishes for us for several hours. I just couldn't stop shooting his food. When I got a chance to finally taste it...well that is an entirely different story. 

MR. ROW (REDUX)

A few last frames from my impromptu shoot with Ben Row. I have to give mad props to Ben, it's not easy to bring any level of intensity to a photo shoot in sub-zero temperatures. Not only did he bring it, he brought it for nearly 3 hours. That my friends is commitment!
