Popular Photographer Barbara Lassen shows her work at North Fork Chocolate Company and signs copies of "The Hamptons Kitchen" on Saturday, May 8 from 11am to 1pm. (Rain date Saturday, May 15, same hours.)
Hailing from Manorville, Lassen is best known for her gorgeous photography featured in "The Hamptons Kitchen" (Norton). This cookbook and guide to the East End by Bridgehampton’s Hillary Davis and Sag Harbor’s Stacy Dermont, was released during the height of the pandemic. “I’m so excited by peoples’ reaction to the first book I shot! I get so many great questions and I’ve had so many requests for related images, I’ve had some of my work blown-up and printed on canvas and some food shots reproduced on notecards—so people can take it home,” says Lassen. “It’s thrilling to me knowing that people are looking at my work every day in their kitchens and living rooms.”
Noted for her portraiture business, Barbara Lynne Photography, Lassen has served as the longtime photo editor for "Dan’s Papers," so you’ll often see her—and her two cameras—at red-carpet events.
The North Fork Chocolate Company now features signed copies of "The Hamptons Kitchen" ($29.95) year-round in its retail space, which is adjacent to its popular chocolate shop and ice creamery. So patrons can pick up a memento featuring many North Fork wine pairing suggestions—in addition to made-from-scratch candies and chocolates. The Chocolate Company has created Mother’s Day gift baskets featuring the book, Lassen’s notecards, and an assortment of goodies.
"The Hamptons Kitchen" is also available from area bookstores and from all major online booksellers in print and digital formats.
Happy Mother’s Day!
