AMBER-JAYNE BAIN

I’m a seeker of beautiful light and evocative moments. Whether a body of work is assigned, or personal, I am always looking for an elusive quality to the light that tells a more engaging story. Shooting food, people and spaces has become my favourite thing and I love to do things with a bit of an old-masters flavour.

EWAN SARGENT

I’ve been writing about what I hear, see and think for more than three decades – after deciding journalism was better than working in a cheese factory. Food writing is a breeze with passionate chefs and producers. But it feels like hauling 20kg blocks of colby all over again when writing about soulless, production-line food.

KOHL TYLER-DUNSHEA

I’m a Melbourne-based artist (who originally hailed from Paparoa, NZ) with a keen interest in the creative processes involved in cuisine and the driving forces behind the most passionate chefs, makers and people. Making is what makes us human

– the unifying desire to create and share our creations with others.

CLAIRE MCCALL

Growing up on boerewors and braaivleis in South Africa, it’s natural that my carnivorous tendencies are difficult to suppress. While I still love a good steak (preferably with tarragon butter), I’ve recently noticed meat-free Mondays creeping into the dinner routine courtesy of a cool-as-it’s-hot Chinese cucumber salad and plant-based dumplings that even pass the teenage lit test.
