FIREMAN'S ALE IMAGERY
Souders Studios specialties of beverage photography and flame photography meet in this new Client Image for Fireman's Ale. This image is a nice icy cold Fireman's Ale Beer sitting on a burning timber. The Flames are real. The red "hot spots" are real. The smoke is real. This was shot in Studio. We used a number of takes when creating the "Hot Spots" and our expert imaging specialist John Wood, combined a few images together. It is one of my favorite new beverage images.
Organic and Made From Scratch Food is in and trendy. Souders Studios newest collection of Food and Beverage Portfolio Images. When we aren't super swamped with shooting for national food and beverage brands, we try to look at food trends, lighting, the new culinary order and put the elements together. Here you will find our stories of three American Favorites: Apple Pie, Mac and Cheese and Pizza. These are all shown from top to bottom as ingredients from scratch, baked and then ready to eat. These are all shot with mixed light.
These food shots are fabulous.... keep up the great work!

FOOD TRENDS 2010
We are always looking for anything relevant to the food and beverage photography world. So check out our food and beverage trends of 2010! We have researched a lot of magazine, restaurant, food and beverage industry and research sites, to come up with our top trends to start the new decade out with. These are not in any particular order but we found them all interesting enough to share with all of our friends and clients.
Chocolate, especially in the organic category, plus chocolate with bacon and the newest trend of chocolates paired with Sea Salts
Exotic Fruits are still popular but in their whole forms versus vitamin or suppliment forms
Butchers are in again in 2010, fresh meat cuts from the around the corner butcher are more popular
Brussell Sprouts and Eggplants are the Veggie Kings
Eggs all day long
Wines mixed with Fruit Juices
Exotic Sodas made from Scratch
Foods from the Sea like Kelp Pasta
Marshmallows and Butterscotch are running neck in neck
Coconut and Coconut water are very big
Gluten Free Anything
Comfort Foods from Meat Loaf to Baked Chicken
