About the Book

This second volume of "Kinfolk" explores simple ways to spend time with friends during the fall and winter seasons. Morning walks, using natural candlelight, escaping with friends for a weekend retreat in the mountains or on the coast, or revisiting nostalgic traditions. Over 30 well-known photographers have collaborated with stylists, filmmakers, chefs, bakers, and their own close friends to document these meals and activities as inspiration for others to experiment with new ways of entertaining.

The honest, natural, uncontrived mood of the imagery targets individuals within the growing popularity of recreational cooking and domestic entertaining. Articles connect readers with the creative individuals behind restaurant meals, and encourage a simplified way of approaching their own entertaining at home.
