Food photographer/Food stylist from Lithuania.
My name is Skaiste, I am a foodie. I love everything about food. I love cooking, cookbooks, food photography, nicely set tables, gardening and summer BBQs. I love cooking at home for our friends and family, I love heart-warming stews in winter and improvising in my kitchen on a rainy day. It fills my heart with happiness and hopefully spreads arround to those who can be part of it.
Winning photos
Blueberry Dutch Baby. This is one of my favorite breakfast dishes and it is as beautiful as it is delicious. I am a bit crazy about food aesthetics. When looking for recipes and dishes to cook, I always look for the right balance in beauty, tastes and complicatedness of the process. I think this dish is a perfect example of a well-balanced, delicious, easy to make and beautiful meal.
67th CollectionS’mores tart with toasted marshmallow meringue. I was really anxious before making this tart. It seemed a rather complicated procedure. But when you start it, it really isn’t. I am so happy I was able to capture a short smoky effect of the toasted meringue. It’s just a matter of a second before you burn it too much.
67th CollectionWhite Cosmo drop. I had this cocktail photo in mind for some time. But then only during the actual shooting, I have decided to bring this drink ‘alive’. One little droplet ads so much magic.
67th CollectionThe dance of the bubbles. I was shooting a champagne glass collection, trying different lighting and wine movement techniques. When shooting this coupe glass I wanted to emphasize the color of this vintage champagne and the beautiful dance of the bubbles.
66th CollectionEaster meat pie. I was shooting this beautiful pie for my client, but I had to bake it myself since it was a ‘before and after' photoshoot. I was so happy about it because it's not just the end result that gives you the satisfaction it's the process of baking itself. It fills your home with mouth-watering scents and the feeling of coziness.
66th CollectionSometimes all you need is a small bucket of happiness. A magical taste and texture of blueberry-blackberry ice cream. Ice cream always makes things better.
65th CollectionThis picture is about the details of the grilled meat. I was trying to convey the heat, the scent, the sound and even the Maillard reaction that makes this steak so irresistibly delicious.
65th CollectionBlueberry ice cream. I had a vision of a cone of ice cream standing still in my photo for some time, the question was how to make it happen. And with ice cream it is always a matter of seconds before it starts melting and falling apart. But I guess the challenges are the reason why I love photography so much. It is about the moment when the idea, the construction and the postproduction meet and you get the result that is simply magical.
65th CollectionCarrot-ginger soup. There is nothing more comforting and soothing than the warmth and silky creamy texture of this soup. It's almost like a warm blanket just exactly when you need one.
65th CollectionI was training how to photograph fire, smoke and ashes and therefore have flamed and caramelized lots of marshmallows which consequently ended up in a beautiful dessert - S’mores.
64th CollectionThis picture is about the anticipation. Anticipation of the magical moment in time when the frost turns these berries into piece of art or the anticipation of one irresistibly reaching for the chocolate drips to be swiped and licked from the finger.
64th CollectionDonuts with white chocolate and edible flowers. I guess I was craving for spring blossoms so much it got reflected in this donut composition. All winter I was heavily dependent on my studio lights and whenever I’ve tried to use natural light it was still too blue or too grey and suddenly when shooting these donuts the magic happened. The natural light was so soft and gentle I new the spring is near.
64th CollectionThis is how chocolatiness looks like. Three different textures of chocolate: chocolate dribble, brownie and chocolate shavings meet and melt in just one bite.
Beautiful octopus stew with shafron and coconut milk. Now when the restaurants are closed and the travels are restricted you can choose to have a gastronomical journey to a different continent. This is a shot of our home ‘restaurant' dish and a short but marvelous journey to Brazil.
64th CollectionI wanted to make this orange, almond cake with bloody oranges, but I could not find any, anywhere in our city. But I guess sometimes restrictions release your creativity and I’ve decided to dye the oranges in beetroot juice. The result was magical.
63rd CollectionWhen I’ve put this piece of brownie on a plate it was something magic about it. The color, the texture, and that scent of freshly melted chocolate. With a little bit of proper lightning hopefully, I was able to stop the moment.
62nd CollectionIt was so grey and gloomy outside and I’ve terribly missed the snow, so I’ve decided to make it snow at home. I hope I was able to convey this snowy evening mood in a nicely lit little farmhouse.
62nd CollectionWith gingerbread cookies in season, I could not resist the temptation of taking the picture of it. Enjoying a cup of hot chocolate in addition to it.
62nd CollectionI have challenged myself to take a different picture of pomegranate every day for 30 days, capturing it’s beautiful color, texture, shapes, and energy. This is day 21. Deconstruction.
61st CollectionBreakfast pancake stack of slow and dreamy Sunday morning. As a food photographer, I have always wanted to take a picture of a perfect pancake stack, so this is my try, my version of perfect morning pancakes.
