{Chef Tyler Stone}

Hi Friends,

Back in February (the 19th to be exact) I had the pleasure of meeting and photographing Chef Tyler Stone. http://www.cheftylerstone.com/ What is so unique about this Chef is not only his accomplishments but the age at which he made them. He started cooking at the young age of 4 and graduated with his degree from culinary academy with his degree in restaurant management and culinary arts at 13 1/2 and published his first book titled "The Kids Cooking" at 18! He's had the chance to cook for "big names" such as the Maloof's and the Sacramento Kings, John Tesh, The Doobie Brothers and Vice President and Mrs. Cheney. All this and he's still only 21 years old! But these aren't the things he wants to talk about, what he's excited about are children. Working with and educating them about not only cooking great foods but learning how to make healthy, fun meals. He enjoys volunteering his time at at risk schools and inviting the parents to his demonstrations as well so the whole family is getting together, learning and having fun in the kitchen. A great interview and a fun photoshoot. Hope you enjoy them!

Much Love and Happiness, Tiana Hollomon Photography

ps. I almost forgot! He made us one of the best desserts I've ever had! Chocolate Angel Food Cake with Caramelized Banana Slices and a Cinnamon Foam. It was to die for and the Cinnamon Foam was a delightful light option for heavy whipped cream.
