    Marcus Nilsson found his way to photography through food. He originally came to New York as a sous chef from Sweden but soon transitioned from the kitchen to behind the camera. His photographic work is not limited to food – he also captures still life and portraits, and does this with the same creativity he tackles his food projects with.

    He has a strikingly original angle on food photography and his work is all about impact. He works with “edgy and gritty” compositions such as half eaten food and raw meat.

    Sam Kaplan

    Sam Kaplan, New York City based still-life photographer, was born and raised in Boston.

    He received a B.A. from Wesleyan University, in studio art and art history. Sam studied both conceptual sculpture and traditional photography.

    Through commercial photography Sam is able to exercise his two favorite skills – creative problem solving and conceptual thinking.
    Kaplan understood early on that a successful career isn’t just about taking a great photo; it’s about marketing. A look at his website and other promotional material clearly defines where he’s coming from as a photographer.

    “I try and take away as much from the picture as possible until I get to its essence. I think when you start adding a lot of elements to the picture, you’re often detracting from whatever the picture is trying to say. It’s a reductive process. I want to get to the root of the problem.” Sam Kaplan
