Best of FOOD 2021

Gear up for another BEST OF 2021 post — this time, I’m posting a roundup of my best food photos of 2021!

Yes, you read that right. Food! Before I photographed my first wedding, I originally bought my camera to take better photos of food.

I’m a food blogger at Chelsea Joy Eats. I spend most of my free time working on that website — coming up with recipes, testing them, photographing the winners, and publishing those recipes!

Therefore, I definitely have a soft spot for cakes, cupcakes, donuts, and whatever other treats might adorn the dessert table at weddings. I often joke with couples that if they have trouble spotting me at the reception, I’m probably spending a bit too much time photographing the dessert.

So why not share all that extra effort with my favorite wedding desserts PLUS my favorite recipe photos from the year?

Interspersed with the cakes, donuts, and other treats, you’ll see photos from some of the recipes I published in 2021. You’ll be able to spot ‘em pretty easily, because they’re usually a lot healthier-looking than wedding cupcakes! When possible, I’ll link to the corresponding recipe on my sister site, Chelsea Joy Eats — in case you want to give ‘em a try!
