The Future of Food

This food photography series was a creative collaboration with Mooji Meats, a startup pioneering 3D-printed and plant-based steaks, and Michael Weirich, a close friend who is a chemical engineering student and a talented chef. I photographed a five-course steak dinner that Michael prepared using Mooji's steak, capturing both the artistry of the food and the innovation behind it. Featured dishes include:

• Tenderloin tacos with fresh pico de gallo and queso fresco
• Seared filet with wild mushroom risotto, za'atar-roasted carrots, and a red wine cherry reduction
• "Oscar-style" filet topped with seared prawns, lump crab béarnaise, and sautéed asparagus

I'm excited about the future of food, where sustainability and flavor don't have to be a tradeoff.
