Kristen Hess
Welcome to Artful Gourmet…I’m Kristen Hess: food fanatic, budding chef, graphic designer, aspiring food writer, stylist and photographer living in New York City. I have worked in advertising for the past 20 years, and most recently have studied food styling and photography, food writing, blogging as well as a multitude of cooking classes including French, Italian, Spanish, Tuscan, Provencal, Thai, Malaysian, Whole Cooking and Fine Cooking at The Institute of Culinary Education and digital photography at the International Center of Photography in NYC.
My food blog is the product of plenty of late nights of planning and dreaming, reading and writing, cooking and eating, and styling and shooting. My purpose is to share my passion and love for cooking and food and travel, alongside with my creative expressions of it through writing, design and photography.
I’ll be dedicating myself to updating content weekly, with stories and photos about cooking, favorite recipes and cooking techniques, restaurant reviews, chef and local artisan interviews, stories on foodie neighborhoods, local markets and unique food finds in New York City and other places I have lived or traveled to around the world. I’d like this blog to be my creative journalistic view on the food scene as well as a source of inspiration to others by sharing my own cooking and culinary experiences, recipes and stories with others as passionate about food as I am.
I’m excited to join the food blog community and am looking forward to sharing my stories and experiences with you all – Bon Appetit!
