How Sweet It Is

Sweetness

My friend Carter and I have been working on an assignment for another friend of mine who makes exquisite cakes.  Normally, the assignments don't take much time other than to set up.  We shoot quickly at the cake setup location before the wedding party arrives.   However, this became a very difficult task as we began to focus all of our attention on the chocolate groom's cake.  A word to the wise don't shoot anything chocolate on an empty stomach.

Chocolate Temptations

As we practiced our trade and took tight close up shots, it became apparent that we were subjecting ourselves to an inordinate amount of torture.  The details of the chocolate covered strawberries glistening their decadent seduction into our lenses was more than most could bare.  We held steadfast.  We did not partake of the forbidden fruit savoring it only in our minds and recalling it with our digital captures.


I am sure that one bite would not have been enough.  Adam more than likely was seduced by Eve with a chocolate covered strawberry.  Like Adam, I would have succumbed to the pleasure of the moment.  Sometimes you just have to savor the sweetness of the moment and indulge.
