Diane Cu and Todd Porter

Hello & Chaò, we’re Todd and Diane. Welcome to our world of photography and food behind the kitchen, behind the scenes & behind the lens. We’re photographers, travelers and gardeners. Fueled by our love of local culture, people & rich heritage, we document powerful stories from around the world. We celebrate good food, great conversation, green gardening and traveling. For us, our lives have always been about love, family, friends, sharing, exploring & food. These four essentials of survival brought us together & eventually became the basic ingredients to molding our different backgrounds and personalities into one balanced dish.

We cook, consume and create from childhood comforts that our forefathers passed on through our heritage. But, we are not bound by it. Open to feeding both inside and outside our cultural comfort zones, we believe food holds few boundaries; so long as we understand and give respect/recognition to its origins. After many frustrations, failures and success, we continue to evolve at the stove and in our personal lives. We love our job. Of course there are always challenges that come with each project we photograph or film, but at the end of the day we are always thankful for the wonderful people that we work with and Cristina Ferrare is one of those wonderous souls that help us love our job to no end. Last year Cristina selected us to photograph her new cookbook, Big Bowl of Love, which is also the title of her cooking show on the Oprah Winfrey Network. Currently, we are shooting the photos for a jewelry book.
