Pleased to meet you.
My name is Emily. Let me tell you a little something about myself and how I got here.
Hi! I'm Emily Marshall-Garrett
My story is not typical. I accidentally became a food stylist in 2014, but I never attended culinary school or formally studied food. In spite of that fact, I cook for a living, yet I am definitely not a chef. Honestly, I'm just making it up as I go along. As a food stylist who specializes in vintage food, I spend a lot of time with vintage cookbooks, and I own a lot of molds for making foods into fancy shapes.
I was raised in Los Angeles. I learned my trade there, training under a feature film property master, who brought me to New Orleans to do the food styling job of a lifetime, Astronaut Wives Club. On the first day, I met my husband, and shortly thereafter began working as a food stylist in film and television full time. I relocated back to Los Angeles in 2017, where I sometimes am lucky enough to make gelatin for the stars in my hometown.
Most of the photos on this site are taken against all odds on set with my iPhone.
Welcome to my technicolor food circus!
