food photography tips

I have been getting a lot of emails from readers lately, and the email I receive most often sounds similar to this: "I love your photos! What kind of camera do you use?" While I love getting notes from readers, I want to clear something up: it's not just the camera that makes a photo great- it's the photographer! It's true that most of my posts use photos taken on my DSLR [Canon XSi] but a few use images shot with my small point-and-shoot, and lately I've even been posting from my iPhone.

My point is this: you can take great photos with any camera.

Last year, I wrote a post for my friend's blog sharing some basic tips on how to improve your food photography. These photo tips can be used with any camera- even the one on your phone.  I thought it would be fun to share that post here [below] to give a little insight to what happens in my kitchen and answer some of your questions.

Read on, and happy shooting : )

food photography tips

Hi! Just popping in to let you know I wrote a guest post on food photography  

over at the 52 Week Project site. If you've ever been interested in 

food photography but found it a little intimidating, or just want a look 

into how I shoot my photos here, you might want to take a peek! 

Also, the 52 Week Project site is pretty cool itself : )

Enjoy!
