Food Photography

[Darren Bradley]

I suppose this is the best category for food photography, but please feel free to move it otherwise. My attendance on this forum has been spotty of late. Part of the reason is that I was helping out my wife with her food blog earlier this summer. She wrote and I took photos. It only lasted a week but I don't think I slept during that time. We were both exhausted by the end.

It's not at all my usual thing and I wasn't using proper technique or anything - just trying to make the most of whatever situation - usually quickly, with the wrong lens for the job, and in poor lighting. OK, now that I've gotten all of the excuses on the table, here's a link to her blog so you can see what I've been up to:

So let me get this straight - you have to follow your wife around, take photos of food, and eat the food - for a week....

Where do I sign up?

Nice work sir - great way to expand the horizons, and some very tasty shots.

You see what I did there? Tasty...



I'll get my coat...

Yes, it was a traumatic experience from which I've yet to recover. T R A U M A T I C, I tell you. And yes, you summed up my jobs quite well. Thanks!

By coincidence, we are about to start work on building a food forum ...
Not for me to run, for someone else ... I couldn't do 2! I loose my marbles!
I'll post a link when it's ready ...

Nice shots!!! And yeah, must be terrible for you!

Thanks! I think the best photos are towards the end of the blog, by the way... I started to get my sea legs a bit.
