Words from clients and colleagues:

“I’ve had the pleasure of collaborating with Annabelle on many occasions over the years, and each time has been an absolute pleasure. Annabelle is a talented stylist who possesses a unique blend of creativity and professionalism that sets her apart from others in the industry. She has a keen eye for detail and understands that every project has its own specific goals and objectives, which she can tailor her approach to achieve. One of the things I appreciate most about Annabelle is her ability to develop mouth-watering and appropriate recipes for each project, which she draws from her previous experience as food editor at Canadian Living Magazine.  As a result, the value she delivers to clients is incredible. Additionally, her wit and sense of humour make working with her even more enjoyable.” Ryan Szulc, Photographer | Director

“I have had the good fortune to work with Annabelle both as an editor and a food stylist. As an editor she was an advocate for her team, a team player, endlessly creative and created meals/desserts/you name it that not only looked good but tasted amazing (I still use her recipes 9 years later). When she became a food stylist she brought that same dedication to her work. I never have to worry when working with her. She brings to the table the ability to think ahead, and is exceptional at solving creative problems. She brings a smile, calmness and knowledge that makes her an exceptional partner on set. She is one of my go-to’s and I feel so lucky to be able to work with her.” Henrietta Poon, Executive Creative Director

“Annabelle Waugh is a brilliant collaborator and content-creation partner. She approaches her work with passion, open-mindedness, and dedication.

I miss working with her every day.” Tina Anson Mine, Editor | Writer

“Working with Annabelle is always an absolute pleasure! Her attention to detail, creativity, and passion for food translates to success in every project we’ve worked on together, over the last 20 years. Anyone looking to collaborate with a true professional who’s not only smart but fun to work with should  look no further than Annabelle.” Chris Bond, Art Director

“Annabelle Waugh is a pure joy to collaborate with. She expertly navigates the bustling studio environment, and creates gorgeous food imagery while seamlessly incorporating client ideas and feedback along the way. Beyond her studio skills, Annabelle’s spanning expertise in food trends, nutrition, recipe development, and culinary (and pop) culture makes her a valuable resource for both ideas and engaging conversation. She is friendly, talented and professional, and whenever I see Annabelle’s name on our pre-production documents, I am thrilled, knowing that there will be captivating imagery and good times ahead!” Madeleine Johari, Prop Stylist

“Annabelle is an exceptionally talented food stylist, recipe developer and all around great person! Her unparalleled creativity, professionalism and humour have consistently lit up any set we’ve shared. She has a remarkable eye for detail and dedication to her craft that sets her apart as a leader in the world of styling. She has that rare blend of creativity and agility that enables her to quickly transform the project’s vision into reality without ever compromising on quality. She possesses an openness to feedback that makes the collaborative process not just productive but also very enjoyable. She’s quick to build your trust and has the ability to maintain a light-hearted, often hilarious, outlook on set that contributes significantly to the overall morale of the team. Annabelle is not just a highly skilled stylist; she is a creative force, a reliable professional and a delightful colleague! I get genuinely excited about the opportunity to work alongside her and see the magic we’re able to create together. Her contributions are not only measured in the stunning results she produces, but also in the positive impact she has on those fortunate enough to work alongside her. ” Amy Ward, Art Director | Producer
