Maggie Beer’s Chef Challenge is a six-part short series I produced and directed as part of ABC’s Impact Campaign for the TV series Maggie Beer’s Chef Challenge.

In the Chef Challenge, Maggie Beer challenged some of Australia's most-loved chefs to whip up a culinary creation dedicated to an older loved one, meeting the criteria of Maggie had set. Meals had to be budget-friendly, use fresh and accessible ingredients, be easy to cook and scale up to feed one hundred or more people, allowing the recipes to be cooked in aged-care residences.

I produced and directed six videos, reformatted them for distribution across Facebook and Instagram, and shared chef recipes on ABC Lifestyle. I shot photos for three of the six recipes.

View the recipes I photographed here:

• Alice Zaslavsky's blitzed vegetarian borsch for Maggie Beer's Big Mission

• Julia Busuttil Nishimura's stuffed zucchini with pork mince and potatoes for Maggie Beer's Big Mission

• Nornie Bero’s tinned corned beef stew for Maggie Beer's Big Mission
