Food picture tips?
What are your best tips and tricks for taking pictures of food for your blog? I just started mine, and I know my pictures need work! Any help is much appreciated 
Re: Food picture tips?
my food blog
The biggest tip is to read Plate to Pixel. You can buy it on amazon, and it is pretty fantastic. Also, it looks like you are using a flash. Stop it :P
Try to use natural light, diffused with sheer curtains as much as possible. It's so hard to take pictures of food, I feel like I beat myself up daily because my food photography isn't as good as I want it to be!
Just remember that it is a constant learning process and just try to tackle on thing at a time.
I would also recommend buying Lightroom to process your photos, I love it!
Thanks! And yes, I do use a flash; I do most of my cooking at night, so there really isn't much natural light to work with. I'm definitely going to check out the book. Thanks for the suggestion!
