{Lifestyle Portraiture} Sneak Peek - Mary's Wholesome Living | Naperville Lifestyle Photography

December 16, 2011

I had such an amazing opportunity this past week - I got to photograph Mary and her holiday cooking class while they met and cooked up a storm. The evening was so perfect - dinner made by Christy of Two Mothers Food using the freshest ingredients possible, triple ginger cookies and kolackies made from scratch, Mary's famous ginger beer and wonderful company of some amazing women.
Mary wanted to have pictures taken for her class and I was happy to oblige! - I tried not to get in the way of these serious bakers and absolutely loved it. The pictures speak for themselves - the atmosphere was so relaxed. Mary is such a wonderful teacher and you know she really loves doing this by just looking at her - her body language and her voice and tone were perfect!....I think this is the best way to learn to cook...have Mary teach you! :)
Enjoy your sneak peak, Mary and thank you for this wonderful opportunity!
I love this one - Mary not only shows you how but also passes along little tips and tricks on what to look out for when you make the cookies at home - on your own! AND she makes you practice in class!
How beautiful is this - go from a bunch of ingredients to perfect, moist ginger cookies!  yummy!!!
The culinary experience did not stop there - Christy and Mayome of Two Mothers Food prepared the most amazing pasta and salad right then and there. We feasted! (yes - that is truely the right word) on our dinner while the cookies baked!. 
Two Mothers is a zero waste kitchen. No plastics anywhere and we used real plates, silver ware and cloth napkins during our meal!!!!
