I arrived at 6 AM to do a photo shoot of a bread baking day at Elmore Mountain Bread, a small home based bakery that works out of an attached space that includes a wood fired oven. Andrew, the co-owner had been working since 4 AM. The movement of the three, Andrew, Blair, co-owner and married to Andrew, and their well-appreciated helper, Kate was so quick that I had to figure out how not to get only blur in the photos. Their work looked like a well coordinated dance as they folded and shaped dough, floured and oiled loaves, baked using a conveyor belt that loaded the wood-fired oven, and packaged the freshly made bread for delivery. All without even touching each other. I finished at 1:30. They still needed to do deliveries!
