Kosher Style - Amy Rosen’s New Cookbook

I recently had the pleasure of working on Amy Rosen’s new cookbook, Kosher Style. This is my third book i’ve shot with her and it’s quite different from the other books we’ve done together. Previously we teamed up to shoot Toronto Cooks and it’s sequel Toronto Eats. Both books focused on Toronto’s Restaurant scene and it’s chefs. This time around it’s all about Jewish food hence the funky title: Kosher Style.

Our goal here was to give a modern look to traditional kosher foods. This was a really fun learning experience for me and I got to try all kinds of foods i’d heard of but hadn’t had the chance to try like Gefilte Fish, Knishes and Blintzes.

I was fortunate enough to shoot this cookbook with an incredible team. Michelle Rabin handled the food styling and Madeleine Johari was the prop stylist. I couldn’t be happier with the results. The book doesn’t come out until later this fall, but i’m happy to be able to share a few of my favourite images with you.
