Deep Dish Pizza for Easter!
Easter gets most of the attention today. But it turns out the calendar had something else in mind.
National Deep Dish Pizza Day.
That was enough for me.
I picked up a frozen deep dish pizza, brought it back, and stacked the slices straight onto a black background. Pepperoni, sausage, cheese, peppers, thick crust holding it all together. No styling, no adjustments, just exactly what it is.
Deep dish pizza has its roots in Chicago, dating back to the 1940s, built more like a layered dish than a traditional flat pizza. Over time, it moved far beyond that origin, into grocery store freezers and everyday meals. That’s where this version lives.
That contrast is what interests me. Something that started as a regional specialty, now reduced to a frozen box, stacked and photographed in a controlled space.
That’s where my food photography fits in. Taking something familiar, something commercial, and isolating it just enough to look at it differently.
