Pretzelmaker Cotton Candy Lemonade Summer

Pretzelmaker Halloween

This Halloween, ditch the sugary treats and get your ghoulish grub on with Pretzelmaker's savory salted pretzel bites! They're not just delicious, they're downright scary-good in these spooky shapes:

The Pretzel Ghost: Stacked high and dusted with salt, this spectral snack is almost too cute to eat...almost. But don't be fooled by its fluffy exterior, each bite packs a punch of salty goodness that'll have you saying "boo-tiful!"

The Pretzel Spider: Eight legs of salty pretzel perfection, this creepy crawly is sure to be a hit at your Halloween bash. Dip them in your favorite cheese sauce for extra web-slinging fun!

BOO: It wouldn't be Halloween without a little spooktacular wordplay, right? These bite-sized letters are the perfect way to add a salty touch to your Halloween.

Double Doozies

Close-up shots showcase the contrasting textures of the cookie and icing. The crackled surface of the cookie, meets the smooth, glistening icing in a visual dance. Each image is a tactile delight, inviting you to reach in and feel the satisfying crunch and creamy softness.

This is my daughter holding the double doozies. She wanted to eat them very badly.

Cotton Candy Clouds

What is cotton candy if not a sugary cloud of goodness? This took a lot of thinking. A slider to make the cup go up and down and spin. A hole in some foam core for the cup to go through. And a bunch of cotton candy to make the clouds.

Beer in a Cooler

Sunshine, sand, and a frosty sip of satisfaction. This is one of my favorite photos I’ve ever taken. Believe it or not it was shot in my studio.

Bites in Paradise

Bluemoon

The shot with two bottles is a favorite of mine, and it only took one photo. I didn’t need to take another. The shot with the basketball was a nice composition using a sign that’s about 30 feet behind the subject. It initially didn’t have the wing in it, but Buffalo’s Cafe needs a shoutout.

Watermelon Lemonade

How do you imagine I go lemonade to pour out of a watermelon? I hollowed it out, cut a hole for the spigot, filled it with lemonade, and voila!

Elf on the Shelf

This is just a cute shot. When looking at it I try to imagine what they are thinking about. “Should we eat it? Would Santa find out?”

Berry Topped Bon

Just a beautiful shot of a berry topped cinnamon bon from Cinnaholic.

Hungry Santa

Flying all over the world in a 24 hour period is a lot of work for one Santa. Give him a break, he’s hungry.

Peanut Butter Drizzle

How do you make cookies look crave worthy and suggest their flavor? I give you, the messy drizzle.

Blueberry Loaf

The slices image is the last shot of the day after we had cleaned up, and honestly probably my favorite as well. A little messiness, a little drama with the lights.

The loaf shot is a classic example of over delivering on the “we’ve gotta have a standard shot of the product” request.

Lemonade Day

This is actually a compilation of shots taken over a few months to make one glorious lemonade crave video.

Hot Chocolate Cookie

Dive into pure decadence! A toasted s'mores cookie takes the plunge into a steaming mug of hot chocolate splashing a symphony of textures and flavors

S'mores

Golden char and melty magic: A s'mores cookie dances with the flames, its marshmallow center oozing like molten gold. Crisp graham cracker edges frame the gooey delight, promising a symphony of textures with each bite. Can you smell the toasty sweetness wafting through the air?

Caprese Sandwich

The simplicity is the magic. No fancy ingredients, no elaborate construction, just the purest harmony of flavors. The sweetness of the tomato meets the salty tang of the cheese, all bound together by the earthy perfume of basil. Each bite is a vibrant dance on the tongue, a celebration of fresh, seasonal bounty.

Pretzelmaker Flip

Buckle Up for Pretzel-Mania! Hold onto your hats, snack lovers, because this video is about to take your pretzel game to a whole new level of dizzying deliciousness!

Back Yard Burgers

Behold, the undisputed champion of backyard cookouts: the Double Decker Bacon Cheeseburger! This ain't your average patty on a bun. This is a symphony of flavors, a symphony of textures, a symphony of pure, unadulterated burger bliss.

Moe's Queso Drip

Forget physics, embrace queso magic!

Hold onto your sombreros, amigos, because this video is about to bend the laws of nature and your mind with the River of Queso!

This video got 5.4 million views on TikTok back in January of 2020.

Cinnabon Icon

Ah, the iconic Cinnabon swirl! It's more than just a logo, it's a visual symphony of cinnamon-spiced temptation.

During the first month of my working at Focus Brands I illustrated a photo of a bon. Over the next few months I used it in international POP and signage. Slowly, domestic marketing got wind of it and asked for the file so they could use it locally. So, you can see in the store design (which I didn’t do) the use of that icon in a couple of places.

Moe's Posters

I didn’t photograph these, but I was part of the concepting. I also went to London to be there when Carl Warner did shoot them. These posters went up in all Moe’s stores.

Burrito People

Burrito Brigade: The Secret Lives of Your Favorite Wraps

They might look like humble bundles of savory goodness, but behind the tortilla curtain lies a vibrant world of burrito-kind. These are no mere snacks, my friends, but living, breathing beings with personalities as diverse as their fillings.

They later being posters in store.

Funny Moe's Posts

Queso Vending Machine: Fabricated out of armature wire and foam core. Fun to make really. I made a video of it too, but I’ve lost that.

Fire in the Queso: This was comentary on Game of Thrones when Khalesi burned the city down.

Send Burritos: Posted a couple of weeks after COVID hit. How else were we going to get food?
