These will be low volume, printed as I need them kinda cards since they're so specialized. Since they're to help sell photography I get them printed on a Fuji Frontier miniLab (Walgreens - hoo-WAH!) then laminate 'em (I have a heat laminator for these) for durability and that extra POP! I did this to promote jetski race photography and I still have people asking me for more cards - Hey guys, I do have some good photos too!.. LOL.

Glenn I'll take that as a compliment
Barry, LOL! I don't think I ever want to get involved in food service again - it's NUTS.
Kelly, nah... while the photos look good enough to eat, they still just taste like paper. Thanks!

That's some food for thought, eh? It is always fun to what you are cooking up these days. You always seem to have a lot on your plate, you know?

Bruce, yes it seems I'm always on the chopping block to whip up some cool stuff. I always have a few projects simmering on a back burner.
Nettie, I'll be chomping at the bit to try that on the next batch I print. These are already laminated and I'd hate to compromise the lamination cutting into it.
Mike, I eat a whole lotta stake-n-aspergrass. The deep freeze out in the garage is stocked quite well.

Mike, Awesome pics! You and Clay should get together. I have always considered being a food stylist. It's a crazy job though.
PLEASE, PLEASE don't do the bite out of the corner of the card thing. No offense Nettie but in my opinion it lowers the "class" of the whole thing. I would never hire a biz that had cards like that. Just my humble opinion.

One perfectly cooked steak - check; fabulous desert and salad - check; Mahi mahi with mango salsa - check. Mike, judging from the depth of field, you are actually using film.

Mike - You should sell them on istockphoto.com. We're always looking for nice photography of food for these restaurant web site we do. Nice stuff buddy!
