hi! click the tabs above to see some of my work!
Welcome!
My name is Laura. I’m twenty-two years old. Paso Robles wine country, California is where I call home, although I spent my childhood in New England and went to college in New Jersey. I live on a small ranch, where we have lots of animals, lots of gardening projects, and lots of beautiful things to take pictures of.
My dad was a chef in his day, and so by default I began cooking at a very young age. My whole life, cooking and baking has been a way for me to unwind, to entertain, and to learn. This site documents both my cooking and photography adventures – I hope you enjoy it as much as I like contributing to it!

Hi Laura,
Kim was at our house last week for a Vermont get together. She showed me your site an said I HAD to check it out. WOW! is all I can say. I sat here and went through the whole thing. Incredible job. I still can’t believe you graduated, I remember the day you started college and Kim being the proud AUNT telling me all your acomplishments over the years. Tell your mom I said hello and stop by if you get over to VT!
