Wood Fired Pizza Project

I have just finished a Commission where i was asked to produce a series of images for a Restaurant which specializes in producing fresh homemade Pizza's. My Brief included incorporating the Woodstone Wood Fired Oven (which cooks the Pizza's at Temperatures of over 350oC) into some of the images as well as the fresh dough, made from Caputo Italian flour, and all the fresh ingredients that go into making of the toppings. The whole project was shot on Location in the Restaurant in 5 hours. All the Images were shot on two cameras - A Nikon D3 and A Nikon D200 - I used a selection of lenses including a Nikon ED AF NIKKOR 80-200 mm 1:2.8 and my Sigma DC HSM 30mm 1:1.4D . All of the the Food Photography was shot using A Nikkor Micro AF 105mm 1:2.8 D. I used two Nikon Speedlight SB-910 Flash units to light the Images. All the Photographs were shot in Camera Raw Format.  The final selection of images will be used for Social Media ,Press & Editorial uses and for Menu and Brochure Design.
