Hi there!!
I’m Janani Elavazhagan, a baker, recipe developer, blogger, and a stock food photographer specializing in food photography. I currently live in Portland, Oregon with my family. I’m a mom of two beautiful kids and two gorgeous fur babies!
I belong to a family of good cooks where everyone enjoys cooking and relishes food. As a teenager, I really wanted to try my hand at cooking after being greatly inspired by my mom and grandmom. Guess what? As time went by I realized my passion for cooking and I was motivated to try out more and more recipes from different cuisines. My journey of cooking took off here!!
My way of cooking is mostly healthy, well with a little bit of hmmm… sometimes more of butter and sugar here and there!
I prefer cooking at home is a healthier option because it’s transparent – meaning you know what you cook. There is no joy equal to seeing your loved ones enjoy the homemade, fresh, healthy, and super tasty food that you’ve prepared!! Trust me!!! I experience this every day!!
So I decided to start a food blog, where I can share my recipes with other food lovers out there!!!
Skillet To Plate is a food blog with beautiful photography with simple recipes that are tasty, healthy, and easy to cook.
I blog recipes that are healthy, delicious, authentic, and fail-proof! I’m a person who never gives up and loves to experiment with new recipes even though I’ve had a lot of failures. That’s my passion for cooking and baking!
Initially, when I started to blog I used my phone for photography but I wasn’t very happy with my pictures even though the recipe was super delicious. It is when I started learning food photography and realized how important is photography in the blogging world.
I use both natural and artificial strobe light for photography. I’ve worked for several clients and stock agencies including The Pantry Pantry and OFFSET.
I did my Masters in Computer Engineering. But I did not end up being an Engineer! I chose my passion and started my food blog! And I love my job!
I hope you enjoy my website and thank you again for stopping by!!!
Hoping to hear more from you, please feel free to write to me at skillettoplate@gmail.com
