For those of you who've been following along lately, you know that I'm dying inside because I'm currently separated from my dear and ever-trusty, loyal and wonderful camera.
We've been through thick and thin together he and I, and I'm just pining in his absence as he is being repaired in a lonesome factory out of state.
Being without my camera for the first time in three years has gotten me thinking about photography. About what I've accomplished in my photography and how much my skills have improved. And especially about how much I still want to improve when I do get my camera back and can shoot shoot shoot til my heart's content.
As I've been thinking about all of these photography-related things and about my goals as a food photographer, I have been finding so many fantastic sources all over the web with tips, tricks, and photography wisdom and I've rounded them up for my benefit and for yours!
So maybe a few sort-of-good things might actually come from this awful, wretched, not having my beloved camera situation.
At least that is what I'm telling myself.
It makes me feel just a little bit better.
Take a look at these amazing sources for food photography tips! Even if you're totally pro, you can always benefit from reviewing the basics. Who knows, you may find a fantastic idea you've been missing that could take your photography to the next level!
Thanks so much for this great round up of tips! I need to improve my food shots, so I can't wait to start reading through all of these. Happy 4th of July!

Making the switch to prime lenses was hard but definitely made a huge huge difference in my photography. Thanks Alanna, enjoy the roundup!!
DeleteGreat tips! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteYou're so welcome Jeni! Enjoy!
DeleteAwesome tips Tiffany, I only have a cheap point and shoot camera but it has to do for now because there are a lot of things ahead of the list of priorities for a SAHM with kids other than a new camera, that said...this reading can benefit anyone from pros as you mentioned to just regular folks like myself...thanks for sharing! very very helpful! :)
ReplyDeleteI totally get it, the kids and family is top top priority and sometimes moms just have to make sacrifices, so so worth it! Of course though, working with what you have is totally doable and these tips are applicable to everyone and anyone interested is sprucing up their photos! Thanks so much for stopping by Lizbeth!

Oh I'd love to! Thanks Marcie!
DeleteGreat collection here, Tiffany! I am always trying to improve my food photography, but never actually read the "how to"! Now I will! :)
ReplyDeleteCathy @ Lemon Tree Dwelling
There are so many sources out there to help with food photography but I personally really love these ones. Hope they're a great help for you! Thanks Cathy!
DeleteThanks for this round-up! I'm pretty good at portrait photography so when I started food photography for my blog I thought it would be cake. WRONG. I conveniently forgot that I use natural, outdoor light for my portraits and most times get indoor/filtered/DARK light for my food.
ReplyDeleteReading every single tip I can!
I too started out with portrait photography (www.tazurephotography.blogspot.com) and recently made the switch to food, it's challenging! These tips should give you a little it of a boost though, good luck Joshua!
