My shots in Olive / BBC GF / Delicious Mags this month

I'm in Olive, Delicious AND BBC Good Food this month! Well not me exactly but some of my food styling I art directed (and prepared too) as part of my design job.



I'm never sure whether to cross the boundary of my professional and blog life too much but as I am doing more and more foodie based design (still a small proportion of what I actually do though) it is really tempting to show the little bits here and there on the blog.

These are just some advertorials which I didn't design, but I have some full page advertising with my shots, branding work and packaging heading for the magazines very soon.

Now you see why my food shots are so terrible on the blog. Last thing I want to do after spending 9 hours setting up just 3 shots is to fiddle with lighting and camera settings whilst preparing my dinner!

And yes, I do get to eat LOTS on the food shoots.

  1. Well done, you! I know it's never easy to get into these mainstream magazines, so to have three entries in the one month is brilliant!

    I've got August's Delicious magazine, so I'll have to look through and see if I can trace your work! :)

  2. This is honestly my dream job. You lucky thing! I get free copies of Delicious at work so I'll look out for you!

  3. @Jenny. Thank you. The number of products, packaging and ideas you have to do to get one through to the market and be accepted by the supermarkets is crazy (and often nothing to do with the design!). So nice to see your stuff in the mags and on the shelves when it finally does though!

    @Kate. Thanks. Yeah, like I said, most of my work is corporate branding so when the two passions of food and design occasionally collide, it is very nice indeed!

  4. Ooooh Nice work Fran. I'm obviously extremely jealous that you get paid to do this, but seeing as your obviously talented...I'll just grit my teeth and seethe silently over here in the corner.
