While staying with an aunt, and making coffee early one morning, I noticed the light falling on to a countertop tile in a very interesting way.

I decided to rummage around to find items in the kitchen that would fit on it, and in the course of shooting every morning around the same time (there’s nothing like a photography project to get you out of bed!), I came to marvel at how very ordinary, everyday objects could cast such magnificent - and distinctive - shadows.

I love puns, so it became a personal challenge to not only shoot these items, but come up with catchy titles for them.

The titles are as much a part of the series as the images themselves.

Not every item you’ll see is a ‘kitchen’ item, but they were all found in hers - many were residents of the junk drawer and cupboard that I’m sure exist in many kitchens around the world.

I hope you have some fun making the associations between the images and their names and that you enjoy both in the process:)
