There are estimated to be 7,000+ named cultivars of apples in the world, a comically intimidating number. Some of these apples look like frogs; some are pink inside; some look psychedelic, and some look like stars. Through photographs of rare & curious apples, “Odd Apples” celebrates the enchanting diversity and odd nature of apples, expanding our perception of what they look like and what they taste like.

The 128 page book, contains 90 apple still life portraits that represent four years and three seasons of researching, reading, finding, tasting, and photographing. This collection presents a sliver, incomplete by nature, of apples from across the globe. It is an ode to the apple tree and its gift to us—a never-ending source of joy, wonder, and nourishment.

Each special, limited edition of “Odd Apples” comes complete with an exclusive print of the Hidden Rose apple, one of the very first portraits taken in the series.
