About The Eating Era:

Food blogging and photography have become vastly popular around the world.
There seems to be an increased need to share personal experiences and senses to the public.
People designate more of their time to exploring the internet for recipes and projects they can do themselves, in the comfort of their own homes.

Emily Ruth Aitken (ERA), a local of Charlottesville, VA for over 20 years, considers herself an iPhoneographer and regular foodie.
She has an eye for capturing food at the pure moment of excitment and anticpation right before she takes her first bite!
Emily believes that taking photos of your meal helps you to remember those tastes and textures so that you could share that memory again, and again, and again.

Most of her Photos are taken in Charlottesville, Virginia - home to the best bites, sights, brews and wines on the east coast.

Other photos may come from Emily's travels around the surrounding areas (Crozet, Harrisonburg, NOVA etc.) or from vacation spots (California, NY, The Carolinas, etc.).
