Psst. Go buy the latest issue of Country Living magazine, will you? October 2012, to be exact! We wrote, styled, and photographed a feature on indulgent upgrades for candy apples, and yes, it features our spooky apples from a few years back! It was fun to recreate them, but if you want to know my favorite it’s those Triple Dipped S’More Apples. MY NEW FAVE. Buy the magazine for the recipe, it’s on newsstands now and also available for ipads!
Apples waiting for their close-ups; notes, napkins, tables
The set of the spooky apples, in which I used all the same things from the original shot years ago. Call me the Reflection Wranger (all the black curtains help control all the light and reflections).

Congrats on the magazine and I love seeing behind the scenes photos like this!
LOVE this!!!
Gorgeous shots! I loved seeing the set up shot as much as the finished product.
Congratulations, Matt!
So pretty and subdued in that fall kind of way. Beautiful, actually. Love seeing Adam’s styling too. Thanks for the peek behind the magic.
Wow! what an awesome spread in a cool magazine. You must be thrilled, I love the pull backs so thanks for that. Reflections can be tricky and this is a trick I can use in the future
Always inspiring! The black/red apples look amazing!
Those coconut covered apples look delicious.
Beautiful spread, Matt!
SO COOL!!! I think I really fell for you and your blog with the original post. I still lust for those black Juliska goblets!!!
Does anyone know where to find the awesome glass and brass mugs featured on page 104 of the october 2012 issue? They are shown in the recipe section with “spiked pear cider” in them. They are unusual and I covet them! I emailed the editor with no response.
Thanks!
Matt! LOVE these apples. Anything S’mores is fantastic in my book. I really enjoy this behind the scenes look into your world…the creativity never ends with you, you are so inspiring! I’m gonna get this issue!
i have never been more inspired to go outside and gather every stick in my yard. parents, bribe your kids with these apples…your yard will be cleared of fallen tree limbs within an hour. THIS IS FABULOUS! <3
