Food Porn Daily - Feature Shot FOUR :)

I always get so excited when I see one of my food shots being featured on Food Porn Daily.  This is the 4th time in the last few months..and every single time, I get giddy.  What an honor!  Here's a link to Today's Feature Shot and... if you missed my other three photos on their website, go here, here and here!   



Oh and if you don't yet know what Food Porn Daily even IS, here's a little excerpt from their website.

Our goal
To give you the most delicious food pic possible at least once a day, everyday.

What about the recipes?
The purpose of food porn is to get your (salivary gland) juices flowing – whether or not the recipe is readily available. Please keep this in mind when viewing the photographs on this website. We provide links to recipes whenever possible, but we do not believe they are crucial to the experience. Let these photos inspire your cooking. Use your cooking fundamentals, reference the interwebs, and trust your instincts. Most importantly, have fun!

What is foodporn?
“If the casserole is missionary style, foodporn takes its devotees into the foodie kama sutra.”
-The Skinny Gourmet

“The point is to get very close to what you are filming, so close that you can see an ingredient’s “pores” (You should believe the dish is in your living room), which then triggers some kind of Neanderthal reflex. If you’re flicking from channel to channel and come upon food that has been shot in this way, you will be hardwired as a human being to stop, look, and bring it back to your cave.”
-The New Yorker


Click. Drool. Repeat.  :)

Food Porn Daily - Feature Shot THREE :)

Guess third time really IS a charm! 

FoodPornDaily shot #3 (taken by ME!!) up for viewing HERE!

I have to admit that everyday I take a gander at my gmail account eagerly hoping that I'll hear from the very sweet, and FUNNY Amanda Simpson, creator of Food Porn Daily... letting me know that another one of my food shots will be featured on her website.  Last night, I was obliged.  :)  This time however, the email went a little something like this..

"Thanks for another uber porny shot!  I just wanted to let you know that I'm going to be using your prawn photo as the image of the day tomorrow on FoodPornDaily.  Keep up the awesome work! "

How could that NOT make you smile?!?  :)  (insert immature giggle about my UBER PORNY SHOT...and then I'll give you a moment to get your HEAD OUTTA THE GUTTER!! ;)  


And here's my little Prawn friend in all his glory.  :)


If you're unfamiliar with what Food Porn Daily is all about... this is how their website describes their philosophy..

Food Porn Daily - Feature Shot TWO :)

It's ANOTHER exciting day in the Kelley house as one more food shot (taken by yours truly ;) gets featured on Food Porn Daily!  :)  I'm thrilled!  This time, it's not one of Chad's menu items...BUT.... this dish, (enjoyed while we were visiting Stone Brewing World Bistro and Gardens in Escondido, CA), was equally yummy and delicious.  :)  

You can see more about that trip to Stone Brewery and our trip to Cali to see Chad's family...in this December post, HERE.  

Oh and don't forget to go to the Food Porn Daily website and "LIKE" this photo!

Food Porn Daily - Feature Shot :)

What an AWESOME way to start the day!!... :) 

I'm BEYOND giddy right now :)  Food Porn Daily, a foodie lover's website which highlights a single, daily photo of some pretty amazing food, actually featured one of MY photos from one of Chad's beer dinners!  (Dinner Club with Jim White - The Meddlesome Moth) :)  Little 'ol ME...can you EVEN BELIEVE IT?!  How amazing is that?! Can you tell I'm a bit excited?!

When I ventured over to their website yesterday to see what the daily food shot was...something came over me.  For whatever reason, I thought I could hang with the big boys and decided (in a certain rush of insanity no doubt) to submit a photo.  I thought, "what the heck...it's worth a shot, right?"  Who knew that I'd be at the very front of the line for their daily photo... TODAY!  Not next week, not next month...not in...maybe-we'll-get-to-you-when-we've-run-out-of-other-great-and-inspiring-shots....noooo...TODAY!! Less than 12 hours after submission...there it was.  In all its glory.  Wow.  I'm kinda still in shock.  :)  I hope they weren't just low on submissions or something.. ;)  Oh well, even if they were, it's still an incredible honor.  Thank you, Food Porn Daily!  Now..Click. Drool. Repeat.  :)


Screen Shot of what I saw this morning.. :) Isn't she preeetttyy??  ;)


And lastly...I'd like to thank the Academy photo editors of Food Porn Daily ;)... for driving an insane amount of traffic to our little wee blog... :) 

And if you've made it to the bottom of this post WITHOUT having yet gone to see the foodporndaily website with my NOW famous duck photo (hehehehe..)... shame on you!  Click HERE.
