First Show

I’ve participated in group photo shows before but, I’ve never had my own show. I am very excited to tell you that 14 of my food photos are on exhibit at 12 Farms restaurant in Hightstown, NJ. This is a farm to table restaurant and they exhibit images related to either farms or food. 

The show should be up for at least the next 6 weeks. At that time, I will be asked to remove my images as soon as another artists requests the space.

I have also just booked the Monmouth County Library Headquarters in Manalapan (across the street from Wegman’s) for a show for July 2018. It’s quite a bit away but, I’ve already started to organize my images since, I can have 30-50 images there.

Here is my dilemma. Do I exhibit bird photos, food photos or both. My first instinct was to exhibit food images to help promote my business. Then I thought that bird images would have a greater public appeal and a remote possiblity of a sale. I would be interested to hear what you think.

About Jerry

I was a science teacher for 31 years. During that time I photographed wedding and Bar Mitzvahs for about 15 years but that was in the days before digital. Being a teacher, I had my summers free so I assisted food and commercial still life photographers in NYC for 3 summers and fell in love with it. Having a wife and a mortgage, it was not practical to give up a job in teaching and go into photography so I put off my dream of becoming a food photographer until I retired from teaching. Now I am living my dream - I am a food and product photographer servicing New York City, Philadelphia and all of New Jersey.
