November Resource Roundup

Nov 13

November brings National Diabetes Month and Thanksgiving, two big reasons to talk about balanced plates. Here are free handouts, recipes and teaching ideas for the month.

What to teach in November

Diabetes Month. The plate method, carb counting and a simple meal-order tip.
A balanced Thanksgiving. Fill half the plate with vegetables and fruit, then enjoy the favorites.
Budget holiday meals. Plan the menu, shop from a list and use leftovers.
Gratitude and movement. A family walk after the big meal is a tradition worth starting.

Judy Doherty

I am a food, beverage, and CPG product photographer specializing in photos, stop motion, and video, with over 250,000 visuals delivered worldwide. Based in Southern California, serving Los Angeles, San Diego, Temecula and the SF Bay Area, I work in my studio and shoot for brands worldwide by remote or travel. Clients hire me for my eye, creative direction, and passion for taking their idea to the next level.

My strength lies in a nimble and lean creative process. Clients love getting creative content at a reasonable cost since my studio can art direct, style, and shoot their images quickly and on budget. My studio features an extensive surface library and prop house with a fully equipped kitchen and two shooting studios.

I bring over 20 years of professional culinary experience and more than a decade in commercial photography. My work as a chef, stylist, and photographer has earned many awards, including APA Top 100, ACF Gold Medal, and a juried fine art photo exhibit at Art Basel Miami. I was Executive Pastry Chef for two Hyatt Hotels and Resorts before completing two post-baccalaureate certificates for Visual Art and Graphic Design at U.C. Berkeley Extension in San Francisco.
