A Nice Win for Jennifer Davick

Posted on

Photographer/Director Jennifer Davick  won The  Pink Lady® Food Photographer of the Year Award for her film Black Sesame. These awards are an international competition including more than 9,000 entries from 77 countries. The winners were announced and exhibited at the Mall Galleries, a modern art space in the Mayfair neighborhood of London.

Her film, Black Sesame, documents the creation of this exotic dessert by famed pastry chef Maya Erickson. This is not a how-to video, but a beautiful and evocative use of color and texture, two elements absolutely key to our appreciation of good food.

The global judging panel was chaired by internationally-renowned food photographer David Loftus and included Claire Hyman, British Photography – The Hyman Collection, culinary superstar Alice Waters, Lucy Pike, Head of Pictures at WeTransfer, His Excellency Ali Bin Thalith, Secretary General at HIPA, and Andreas von Estorff, CEO at Production Paradise, among others.
