Duncan has a new celebrity, in case you didn't already know. Dan Hudson has in a very short period of time, become a very busy man. He recently opened a fine dining restaurant in town, Hudson's on First, located on First Street. Wonder how he thought up the name ;) and he and his wife, Andrea, just had a baby girl, Mylee and he is a TV star on the currently running Top Chef Canada series. Busy, busy times!
I caught up with Dan one morning while he was preparing the day's lunch menu. It was interesting setting up lighting in a working kitchen. Its hard enough to stay out of everyone's way, add in lighting and it is really hard to stay out of everyone's way...
My goal was to catch some action shots of the food prep and then take some more posed shots.
After the posed shots were done, I packed up and left for a while, only to return at lunch time when the action was full swing. For this, there was no way I was going to use lighting - way to dangerous as people were buzzing around like busy bees getting lunch out to the diners.
It just so happened that the lights in the kitchen provided a pretty cool effect when I looked around and composed it right.
And that, my friends, is a behind the scene look at Hudson's on First. For those who have not been yet, go and experience it for yourself. It is truly unique fine dining!
