Sean Dooley, Food & Beverage Stylist, New York

Description

This overhead food styling photograph features a classic croque madame served on a speckled grey ceramic plate. The toasted sandwich is topped with a fried egg with a rich, runny yolk, garnished with cracked black pepper. Alongside the sandwich is a crisp green butter lettuce salad dressed lightly. A fork rests on a deep green napkin to the right, while a crystal glass of sparkling water and a small metal salt and pepper shaker set sit on the textured terracotta-toned tabletop in the background. The lighting is bright and direct, casting crisp shadows that highlight the textures of the toasted bread, glossy egg yolk, and fresh greens.
