The Student and the Master

While working at a ramen shop in Amsterdam, my boss, a fellow photographer, was asked to take photos for our sister site. I saw this as my chance to learn something and joined him for his photoshoot. If you saw us, you would’ve instantly guessed the professional and the rookie. I, with my camera and zoom lens. He, with his full set of equipment, multiple lenses, and lights. That day was one of my best memories of Amsterdam. We got to go in the kitchen, shoot a new dish they were putting on the menu, and document how the noodles were made fresh in-house. These photos show how I saw that day and the moments I documented while observing my boss and his techniques.
