Guided Light Photography -  Photography Challenge | South Bend Indiana

Last week I posted the first of many challenges for fellow photographers as a way to broaden their view on objects that we see every day, FOOD. I had asked for anyone that took the challenge to send me their results. Since I didn’t receive results I decided to use some images from one of my favorite bakers’ website. She was my inspiration for the food that I chose to feature, The Pumpkin Pie Bites from Bakerella.

Although mine didn’t turn out like hers, they are still pretty tasty!

Inspirational Website – Bakerella.com

Allow me to introduce the beautiful, sweet, and tasty treats from Bakerella.

First, in honor of my beautiful little boy (who isn’t feeling well today), here are the Sesame Street Cake Pops she did for the 40th anniversary of Sesame Street. When I was looking through her website trying to find the recipe for the pumpkin pie bites, I came across this one. Bryce was instantly excited to see all the smiling faces involved with the cake pops. She did such an amazing job with the details that you could almost pick them up and squeeze them to death. Though, I wouldn’t recommend it because you’d be very sticky.

Next, in honor of my WONDERFUL husband, is the Happy Father’s Day Happy Meal. The bun is made out of cup cakes, the beef patty is a brownie, the fries are cookies, and the condiments are colored icing. How delicious does this look? My mouth is watering as we speak, or read.

Lastly, for all of my amazing brides from 2008 & 2009 and my future brides of 2010 and beyond, is the Wedding Cake Pops. I love how that this groom used the cake pops as a way to propose. (Note to all future grooms, have Guided Light Photography there when you propose to document this special event. It’s the most magical moment in her life). I’m sitting here trying to imagine how small these are and how careful she must have been. I don’t think that the decorations are big enough for me to maneuver; the work of a true artist. I love them!

As I mentioned before, I just adore all of her creative ideas. Scroll through her site and find something you like. I promise there is something there for everyone.

Keep your eye out for more challenges. I’d love to have the opportunity to feature the amazing talents of all my fellow photographers and those who just like to read the blog.

*Bakerella is not only a mad woman in the kitchen but she’s also the photographer for all of the images on her website, now that’s some serious talent.  Check this out to get all of the tasty photo details.
