The target audience are both English and Portuguese speakers that appreciate home cooking and family.
The challenges encountered in this project were to write a bilingual book, in English and Portuguese, being English the main language. Also, to select and to translate recipes, to test, cook and photograph them in the midst of a pandemic, without having access to some resources. And, finally, to represent my mother in every aspect of the book.
Some solutions to overcome these challenges were: to design a layout that was suitable for a two-language book; to photograph the recipes on the same hour of the day, with the same level of indirect lighting, each day in a period of 30 days; and to search for photos and memories of her that could be part of the book.
