Meet Kelly
It all started with my first Canon camera when I was thirteen, and I haven't put it down since!
​
I grew up in South Jersey then made the move to South Florida to go to the the Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale to pursue a career in art.
​​
After art school I opened up a little photography studio called Kreations Studio in Pompano Beach, FL
I've had the privilege of working with many great companies including King World, Mary Kay Cosmetics, US Marine Corp, For Rent Magazine, Dillards and many private clients.
​
For the past 25+ years I've been practicing my craft as a professional photographer and creative.
You name it, I've probably turned my camera on it.
​
​My latest endeavor has been in the pastry world, which is a lot like a science experiment!
Graduating with honors from Auguste Escoffier School of Culinary Arts with a Pastry Arts diploma early 2020, yep, right when the pandemic started.
It was a bit challenging but a great learning experience and I have been baking up deliciousness ever since.
​
Pixels & Pastry has been a place to showcase a few of my favorite things; photography, props and pastries! For many years I have combined my passion for photography with a love for food and finding just the right prop to go with it.
I LOVE a good prop y'all!

MrFood Test Kitchen
I've been a part of the Mr Food Test Kitchen brand for about ten years.
I have been their food photographer, prop stylist, TV production person and the side-kick to Howard on the TV segment that airs across the country.
​
I've photographed numerous recipes for their websites: www.mrfood.com and www.everydaydiabeticrecipes.com.
And had the privilege of photographing sixteen of their wildly popular cookbooks, which have consistently sold out on QVC.
