Serving you elevated food & mindful experiences...

Hello and welcome to A Certain Aesthetic! This is a space where I want to share with you my distinct perspective when it comes to the beauty of food and mindful living. 

With regard to food, my style is a focus on elevating dishes with herbs and spices (my fav!), teaching the importance of basic and specialty ingredients as well as developing scratch based culinary techniques that will surely impress those who will attend your next dinner party or Sunday brunch! 

On the subject of mindful living, I want to help you find ways to fully embrace being present in your beautiful life by sharing meaningful stories of life lessons, creating sacred lush spaces in your home and showing you how to experience mindful moments in your everyday rituals. 

I currently live on the island of Okinawa, Japan and to say it’s beautiful is simply not enough! This place is magical and I’m so excited to share with you all of my adventures and inspirations of exploring the breathtaking beaches, living in a Japanese home, indulging in traditional dishes, and so much more!

Alongside writing for A Certain Aesthetic, I'm also a photographer and stylist with a specialty in food, products and brand lifestyle. I find joy in helping brands all over the world, tell their stories with stellar visual content and rich authenticity! You can contact me here and I’m already excited to work with you!

Lastly, my overall purpose with A Certain Aesthetic is to teach you how to elevate your dishes and show you ways to live mindfully in all aspects of your life. Let’s make the ordinary, extraordinary together!

Mindfully yours,

Shari :)
